The big-ticket item proved to be Magnus’ 1967 Porsche 911 S. It’s an excellent example bearing many Magnus Walker touches, such as Fifteen52 wheels, a contrasting-color hood, and a numbers-matching yet modified 2.3-liter flat-six engine.
Pre-auction estimates pegged the value between $150,000 and $200,000. Yet this one managed to go for a fairly staggering $308,000.
- 1967 Porsche 911 S: $308,000
- 1965 Porsche 911: $225,000
- 1976 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI: $225,500
- 1975 Porsche 911 Turbo: $203,500
- 1966 Porsche 911: $192,500
- 2005 Porsche 911 GT3: $159,500
- 2002 Porsche 911 GT2: $148,500
- 1980 Porsche 924 Turbo: $77,000
- 1968 Porsche 911 Urban Outlaw Starter Kit: $66,000
- 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera Flat-Nose Widebody Conversion: $50,600
There was also a 911 S 2.4-liter engine, which sold for $27,600. Someone bought an old sign for $7,500. And someone even paid $3,360 for a pair of Magnus Walker-signed Nike Dunk sneakers.
The least expensive item? A set of 911 Pistons that sold for $48. Maybe the buyer can get Magnus to sign those, and then flip them for more money. Or maybe they actually need them to restore a car, in which case that’s probably a good deal.
You can head to RM Sotheby’s to see the complete auction results.
Motor1’s Take: The Magnus Walker name clearly packs a punch in the Porsche community. Lots of the cars sold above their pre-auction estimates, and the rest of the lots did well, too.
This means Magnus has space to add more things… or he’s realized the beauty in simplifying everything in your life and scaling back.
