(JTA) — Jerry Seinfeld sold 17 collectible cars at auction for more than $22 million. The Jewish comedian’s cars – 15 Porsches and two Volkswagens – brought in $22,244,500 this weekend, according to the Los Angeles Times. A 1955 Porsche 55 Spyder alone went for more than $5 million. Seinfeld is known to be a car aficionado. In his web series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee,” he goes out to eat with a well-known comedian in a vintage car. The “Seinfeld” star and co-creator showed up at the auction house to promote the sale. Seinfeld had previously said he loved owning the cars. “[T]he reason I wanted to bid these cars farewell in this way is really just to see the look of excitement on the faces of the next owners who I know will be out of their minds with joy that they are going to get to experience them,” he said in a February statement. Seinfeld only failed to sell one car at the auction, a non-drivable Carrera GT concept car, one of two in the world, which didn’t reach its minimum $1.5 million minimum asking price.
