Tom Cruise's Porsche 928 from Risky Business Heads to Auction
An Iconic Hollywood Car
The Porsche 928 driven by Tom Cruise in the iconic 1983 film Risky Business will be auctioned off at Bonhams Quail Auction during Monterey Car Week. The car is expected to fetch a record-breaking price, as it is one of the most recognizable and beloved vehicles from cinematic history.
A Star-Studded History
The Porsche 928 first rose to fame in the 1979 film "The Driver," where it was driven by Ryan O'Neal. However, it was its appearance in "Risky Business" that cemented its status as an automotive icon. In the film, Cruise's character, Joel Goodson, uses the car to pick up a prostitute and embark on a wild night of adventure.
The car's sleek lines, powerful engine, and iconic red color made it an instant classic. It has been featured in countless magazines, movies, and television shows over the years, becoming one of the most recognizable Porsches ever made.
A Rare Opportunity
The Porsche 928 from "Risky Business" is one of only 13 examples built for the film. It is the only one that is still in original condition, making it an extremely rare and valuable piece of cinematic history.
Bonhams expects the car to sell for a record price, potentially surpassing the $400,000 paid for the Aston Martin DB5 used in the James Bond film "Goldfinger." The auction will take place on August 19, 2023, at the Quail Lodge in Carmel, California.
