Patrick Dempsey Reveals Which Porsche He Really Wants To ...

Hollywood actor Patrick Dempsey has revealed that his personal car collection is missing a couple of Porsche models from eras that he’d like to complete—but he fears he doesn’t have the space to do so. Talking to duPont REGISTRY on a call with selected media, the Grey’s Anatomy TV star – who recently played racing great Piero Taruffi in Michael Mann’s Ferrari movie – said that he’s currently awaiting delivery of a new 911 Dakar. “I'm waiting on the Dakar right now; hopefully, I'll get that in about a month or so,” said Dempsey. “I have the 911 R that I got in 2015, my 356 from 1963, a Coupe from 1964, a ’72 T, and I've got my little tractor too, the Junior. “I'm currently driving the 911 Turbo, which I really love as a daily driver. It's fantastic. I just got my daughter the Macan, so she's really enjoying that car. And my wife has the Targa, so we're full-on Porsche family, and my boys love them too.” 1963 Porsche 356 B 1600 Super 90 (Source: PCNA) Dempsey bought his 356 after starring in the romcom Can't Buy Me Love in 1987, using his first major acting role to buy a car that he still owns to this day.  “I spent my whole paycheck on that car, and at that time, I think I got the car for $8000 or $9000,” he said. “Probably the best investment I've ever had. You know, to this day, it just makes me smile, and it’s so easy to maintain. I've had a lot of different brands, a lot of different cars, but there's nothing like that car. “I can leave it for a month or two, and I just take a second, and it turns over, and you go off and drive, and it just makes you so happy. People see you coming, and they're just really open and warm and friendly, and they give you the thumbs up, and they're smiling, and they're waving. It's incredible, and it's been with me for over 30 years plus now.” 2024 Porsche Macan 4 (Source: PCNA) When asked what he’s looking for right now, in terms of collector cars, Dempsey says that space is the biggest issue when it comes to adding to his Porsche range – but that a 914/6 is at the top of his wishlist. “I just wish I had more space to put them,” he sighed. “You know, it'd be nice to be able to develop a really nice selection, so a 914/6 is something I'd like to add to my collection. Certainly something from the ’50s and the ’90s, so I’ve got one from every era. “Number one, Porsches are just works of art. They're beautiful to look at and they're fun to drive, and they're great investments that you never lose your money on. And they make me happy!” VIew All Porsches For Sale

Sammy Hagar's Custom 1-of-1 Ferrari LaFerrari Sells At Au...

The rockstar's Italian hypercar is off to its new owner. With only 499 examples produced and allocated to Ferrari's most prominent clientele worldwide, the LaFerrari stands out as one of the most exclusive hypercars to leave Maranello. Amongst that long list of owners are celebrities like Van Halen rockstar Sammy Hagar, adding an extra cool factor to the ownership of Ferrari's first plug-in hypercar. The auction specialists at Barrett Jackson were recently proud to feature Sammy Hagar's 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari as part of its scheduled stop in Scottsdale, AZ, where it sold to a lucky new owner for a whopping $4.25 million. But what truly separates Hagar's LaFerrari from the other 498 chassis in existence, commonly configured in Red, Yellow, or Black, is its custom, one-of-one Creamy Cappuccino exterior finish. The bespoke touches continue into the cabin where the interior comes layered in matching cream leather with black contrast piping. Steering away from the traditional hues of Ferrari, Sammy Hagar's involvement and dedication throughout the configuration process led to the creation of one of the most spectacular LaFerrari specs ever made. To this day, the Ferrari LaFerrari remains an engineering marvel within the automotive world, showcasing a hybrid powertrain that competes alongside the latest and greatest hypercars. It comes powered by Ferrari's naturally aspirated 6.3L V12 engine with an electric motor that produces a combined 949 horsepower and 664 ft/lbs of torque. Setting a new world auction record for the year, Sammy Hagar's one-of-one 2015 LaFerrari is now on the way to its happy new home.

Rolls-Royce Celebrates 60 Years Of The Goldfinger Phantom

An iconic movie car celebrates its 60th anniversary. An undeniable, quintessential standard of automotive luxury, Rolls-Royce has enjoyed the status of a pop culture icon for most of its century-long history. Rolls-Royce has been featured a dozen times in the decades of James Bond films, which are known for highlighting unique luxury cars, fashion, tech, and gadgets. However, one Rolls-Royce that made a 007 cinematic appearance stands out in particular as the most iconic, and that is the Rolls-Royce Phantom, which featured in Goldfinger in 1964. 60 years have passed since the premiere of Goldfinger, one of the most iconic James Bond films, on September 17, 1964, and the 1937 Phantom plays a pivotal role in the film as the villain, Auric Goldfinger’s car. It was used in the film to smuggle two tons of gold from England to Switzerland in a unique way. The car’s body was made of gold and melted down with the original body replaced to repeat the journey. The car, the Rolls-Royce Phantom III, was up to the challenge of taking on alpine roads with its 165-horsepower, 7.3-liter engine, the first V12 engine that Rolls-Royce ever used. The car was the last Rolls-Royce to be developed by Henry Royce before he died in 1933. The car itself was originally commissioned for an American who settled in England. It was originally finished in all black with a white coach line but was then given its recognizable yellow and black color scheme for the Goldfinger film. After 60 years, the iconic Goldfinger Phantom remains one of the most iconic Rolls-Royces in pop culture and one of the most iconic cars in the James Bond franchise. View All Rolls-Royces For Sale
