We’re honestly not surprised…
When you’re a rich, highly successful comedian who’s been in the limelight for a few decades, plus you’re a huge Porsche nut, the only logical choice is to buy an exclusive 911. Jerry Seinfeld owns many of them, both modern and classic, but he’s added to his impressive collection with the Porsche 911 Classic Club Coupe.

We say “the” and not “a” because only one Porsche 911 Classic Club Coupe was made, as the automaker announced back in March of last year. The car even comes with a badge on the dashboard with proudly declares “No. 001/001” just in case Seinfeld ever forgets.
It took two years for Porsche to transform a 1998 911 Carrera into this bespoke vehicle, which was for the Porsche Club of America. You’ll note the 996 wears a Sport Grey Metallic paintjob and Fuchs wheels along with a ducktail spoiler like what the ’72 Carrera RS 2.7 featured. You’ll also note the double-dome roof, a detail featured in many track toys to accommodate helmets.
The bespoke details continue to the interior, which features Club Blue accent stitching from the PCA to perfectly compliment the black leather. There are also Pepita houndstooth pattern woven leather seat inserts and door panels, adding a throwback flair. Unique stainless steel doorsills with the “Classic Club Coupe” logo, unique gauge faces, an even an infotainment system are all included. It’s all pretty posh, even for a guy like Seinfeld.
As for power, that comes from a second-gen 911 GT3’s 3.6-liter flat-six. Same goes for the chassis and brake system. This thing should move like a panther on the prowl and surely is a blast to drive. But with a price tag of $1.2 million even a famous comedian would be wise to not push the envelope much, if at all.
