Market commentary
Sold to the Walker group at Russo and Steele Monterey in 2011 for $286,000. The Carrera RS 2.7 is one of the most popular and expensive 911s built and while Touring models like this aren't the track terrors of the Lightweights they're still exhilirating to drive. This one has some road use and age issues, but that is more than overcome by the connection to Paul Walker, even though he didn't actually personally own it and it blew the top of Carrera RS 2.7 Touring values with this result, a nearly 50% premium over a similar car on the best of days. The Walker connection resonates today but the allure will decline as time dims his memory. The premium is fleeting.
