Paint cracked by tail latch brackets and silver stripe paint badly alligatored but otherwise meticulously and accurately restored and presented.

Market commentary

This was the place to sell Porsches, no doubt about it. This championship winning 906E was offered by Bonhams in Scottsdale just two months ago at a reported high bid of $980,000. An expectation readjustment by the consignor and a Porsche centric consignment and audience resulted in it finding a new home at an appropriate price.
