Diego Maradona's automobile history was not made only from Scania trucks, and the Porsche 911 we are talking about today is proving it.
One of only 1200 units with this specification (it is a 911 Type 964 Carrera 2 Convertible Works Turbo Look), this example also has the star factor of having been one of the most famous footballers in the world.
Bought new by Maradona in 1992 when he left Napoli for Sevilla, the 911 was in the Argentine star's hands for only a year, having been sold after Maradona's Sevilla experience ended.

An authentic supercar in the early 1990s, this 911 used a 3.6 l air-cooled flat-six with 254 hp and was capable of reaching 250 km/h.

Maybe that's why, in the year he spent in Seville, Maradona was caught by the police after passing a red light at 180 km/h. After being sold in 1993, this Porsche had several owners, having arrived in the hands of the current one in 2016.
With 120 thousand kilometers, this specimen is, according to Bonhams, in good condition. Common estimated value between 150 and 200 thousand euros , this Porsche 911 will be auctioned at the “Les Grandes Marques du Monde à Paris” event, which takes place between March 3rd and 10th.
