Jerry Seinfeld sells Porsches, Volkswagens for $22 million - He’s still a comedian and he still loves coffee, but he doesn’t have as many cars anymore.

Comic legend and auto collector Jerry Seinfeld over the weekend — all but one of the vehicles he put up for auction.

The sale netted Seinfeld $22 million, raising a question the comedian himself might ask: What’s the deal with Jerry Seinfeld selling his cars?

The host of “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” said he was hawking his hot rods to share them with other collectors.

Others speculated he put 18 cars on the block at Gooding & Company’s Amelia Island Auction to make room in his storage yard for more cars — though not too much room, as he still reportedly owns 32 more Porsches, alone.

“I just love cars. And I still love these cars,” Seinfeld said in a . “But it’s time to send some of them back into the world, for someone else to enjoy, as I have.”

His star 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder - the same model that James Dean was driving when he fatally crashed in 1955 - sold for $5.3 million. Seinfeld himself was on hand at the Florida auction on Friday.

Seinfeld also offloaded a 1959 Porsche 718 RSK for $2.9 million, and a 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 went for $2.3 million. He set a world auction record by selling an original 1960 Volkswagen Beetle for $121,000. He took in a total of $22,244,500 — impressive, but $10 million under the top pre-sale estimate.

The main flop on the block was Seinfeld’s 2000 Porsche Carrera GT Prototype, which expected to sell for at least $1.5 million, but didn’t even draw a high-enough opening bid.
