Market Find: Jerry Seinfeld’s 2014 911 50th Anniversary Edition Turbo S Coupe on BaT
In 2014, Porsche celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the 911 with a special "50th Anniversary Edition" model that utilized the then-wider body of the 991. 1963 were built to this specification, most easily recognizable for their Fuchs style wheels, houndstooth seats, and only available in either darker Graphite Grey (graphitgrau; non-metallic UNI; C2C2; Porsche) or lighter Geyser Grey. And while all of those had the base 911 drivetrain, Porsche also specially built a Graphite Grey Turbo S 50th Anniversary Edition for none other than Jerry Seinfeld.

However special or deep the options list may have been for European market BMW buyers in the 1990s, cars remained expensive to own and operate. Seeing an exceedingly well appointed and appreciable specification with a small displacement engine wasn’t uncommon, which is how you end up with such a special build on what would otherwise be a more mundane BMW model.
European Market Find: Rubystone Red Porsche 968, Low Mileage / High Price
The Porsche 968 is (or rather was) one of the last good deals in the Porsche market. It's also arguably one of the best Porsches of the transaxle era. And while the European market only Clubsport or the super rare Turbo are the big money versions, super low mileage, great spec and incredible condition can approach 911 money.
Market Find: 1988 Porsche 959 SC Reimagined by Canepa in Broad Arrow Private Sale
There's remastered, and then there's a Porsche 959 SC reimagined by Canepa.

And, did we mention Irish Green over Tobacco brown leather?
