1979 Porsche 911 Turbo

Over the years, Gates amassed a collection of rare cars, among which was a 1979 Porsche 911 Turbo. He bought it a few years after founding Microsoft, and he bought it used.

6 Jerry Seinfeld

Jerry Seinfeld, full name Jerome Allen Seinfeld, is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and most of all, a Porsche enthusiast!

1964 Porsche 911

The 1964 Porsche 911 in question is a true classic, but what’s more interesting about it is the fact that it was built for Ferry Porsche, the son of Porsche’s founder. Seinfeld bought the car for a jaw-dropping $400,000 in 1996, and sent it right back to the Porsche factory for a full restoration that cost him an additional $250,000! Unlike most Porsches of the time, this one was fitted with a sunroof, leather seats, and metallic paint.

5 LeBron James

In 2012, LeBron treated himself to a $210,000 Porsche 911 Turbo S. Although the base price for this model was around $170,000, he added additional packages to his car, fully customizing it to his preferences.

2012 Porsche 911 Turbo S

Aside from her amazing tennis career, Maria was also a brand ambassador for Porsche from 2013 until 2016, and has a grand-slam car collection to go with her successful career.

2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S
