Paul Walker's Private Collection of Rare Sportscars Is About to Be Auctioned Off
Paul Walker didn’t just play gearhead Brian O'Conner in the Fast and Furious franchise. In real life, he also loved cars, amassing an impressive collection before his untimely death in 2013. Early next year, 21 of his collectible vehicles will be up for sale at auction.
The sale is run by Barrett-Jackson and will take place in Scottsdale, Arizona, on January 11-19, 2020. The collection is heavy on BMWs, including five 1995 E36 M3 Lightweights. (If that means nothing to you, the simple answer is that these are rare cars that’ll likely fetch six figures each.) There’s also a 1988 BMW M3 E30 and a 1991 BMW M3 E30 Coupe.
Aside from the Bavarian motorcars, the Walker collection is an eclectic mix. There are a few classic-era rides, including a 1963 Nova wagon and a 1964 Chevelle wagon, along with a 1967 Nova. A much-beloved 1989 Nissan Skyline is also on the auction block, which will probably reach six figures. A 2013 Ford Boss 302S has never been raced, though if you’re really looking for movie-star cred, you might look at the customized 2009 Nissan 370Z that actually appeared in 2011’s Fast Five. (As an self-respecting racer would expect, it’s a manual transmission.)
Then there are more prosaic offerings, such as a trio of pickups (a 2003 Ford F250, a 2004 GMC Sierra 1500, and a 2006 Toyota Tundra) and a 1995 Ford Bronco. If you prefer you fast and furiousness on two wheels, there’s a 2008 Suzuki, a 2011 BMW, and 2005 Harley-Davidson. Oh yeah, and there’s a 2000 Audi S4 in there, too.
With their celebrity pedigree, vehicles from Paul Walker’s collection are likely to fetch a premium to their pathetically unfamous counterparts. If you’re interested in bidding, the full list is available here.
