  • Location: Beverly Hills, California 90210
  • Lot #: M-0022173

Available for auction is an astonishingly rare, illuminated Porsche dealership letter set. This Porsche dealership sign consists of the seven letters of P-O-R-S-C-H-E that measure approximately 20 feet wide by 15 inches tall when placed together, with each letter measuring approximately 30 inches wide.



The sign was available from a California Porsche dealership in 2018 when the California Clean Energy Act (SB 100) was enacted. As a result, all signage in the state of California had to comply with Senate Bill 100. To meet State of California regulations, Porsche Dealerships statewide had to meet compliance requirements in order to receive their sign permits. Throughout the state of California, new SB 100 replacement signage was installed at all Porsche dealerships.



As the signs are supposed to be dismantled and destroyed when removed, some slipped through the cracks and ended up in private collections. Using LED lighting, the letters are individually illuminated to meet SB 100 specifications mandated by California state. Each letter is fully restored and reconstructed of a silver-finished metal case capped with red plastic. Images of the letters prior to their restoration can be viewed in the gallery.



Rarely do these vintage Porsche dealership signs come up for sale. Don’t miss your opportunity to own an authentic piece of Porsche dealership and advertising history. The buyer is responsible for shipping, handling, and fees.

    There may not be another opportunity to acquire such a LARGE SCALE PORSCHE signage in the collector marketplace again.
    (the last time one of these California Porsche Dealership signs came to market was on 6/11/22 just a little more than (2) two months ago, and it hammered at 36K)
    Earlier in January of this year at the Barrett-Jackson auctions in Scottsdale Arizona this EXACT same California Porsche Dealership sign, same size, same scale PORSCHE signage hammered at $57,500 dollars.

    Who kicked this auction off with their bid of $100 dollars.

    With less than 1 day remaining for the auction, the time for aggressive bidding is now at hand to secure this prized Porsche collectible.
    Thank all of you (again) for your consideration of this unique PORSCHE artifact and highly coveted prized PORSCHE signage.
    In the past 6 months, these signs have sold at auction houses like Barrett-Jackson for 55K and on BaT between 36K and 41K.
    There is even an antique Dealer out of Oklahoma who is selling his PORSCHE signage on eBay for 59K.
    Whoever wins this coveted auction here will become the proud owner and member of a rare and elite group of PORSCHE collectors the world over.
    Good luck with your bids and thank you so much for your interest in this very special signage.

    I estimate that shipping & handling to Miami, Fla. would be approximately 1K to 1.2K

    Hello and thank you for your interest in this incredible massive (20 feet wide) authentic vintage PORSCHE DEALERSHIP sign.
    It is stunningly magical and the kind of rare unique PORSCHE artifact that is hardly ever seen on the open Porsche collector marketplace.
    Because of its large 20 feet size, It will make an incredible addition to any high-end Porsche collection.
    (Thanks in advance to all the bidders and don't hesitate to contact me as I'm available for any questions during the course of the auction.)
