The reason for the high pre-sale price estimate is that this Porsche 930 Turbo is a first year model and it is believed that only 20-30 such examples exist today with matching numbers engine and transmission. This 930 just finished a complete two-year restoration by a noted European workshop.

The high pre-sale price estimate on the 1954 Porsche 356 coupe is not a surprise since Porsche was just founded in 1953 so this is an early pre-A Coupe that should gain a lot of collector attention
