This is the Porsche inspired by Pixar and auctioned for 3.6 million euros – Forbes Spain

The Porsche 911 Sally Special, a creation of the automobile firm in collaboration with Pixar, was auctioned by Sotheby’s on August 20 for a “record” amount of 3.6 million euros, whose bid arrived by telephone. Proceeds will be donated to two charities. A portion of the proceeds will benefit young women through a donation to Girls Inc. The other portion will go to USA for UNHCR (UNHCR in Spain), an organization that supports refugees from Ukraine. The project began in November 2021 and brought together members of the original Cars team, who brought the film character to life over twenty years ago and today’s life-size Sally Carrera. The team included Jay Ward, Creative Director of Franchise at Pixar Animation Studios, and Bob Pauley, the Production Designer who first drew Sally Carrera for the film.

They worked for ten months and the result is a unique piece built in the factory. This is the Porsche 911 Sally Special: To read more
