The Toys for Boys Collection: six Porsche 911 (991) GT3 cars on a MAN TGX

Picture being able to buy, in a single purchase, almost every Porsche 911 GT3 derivative from the 991 generation. It is a tempting thought, isn’t it? Now imagine those cars arriving with their own dedicated lorry to move them around. That, in essence, is what this article is about.

Known as The Toys for Boys Collection, the set is the childhood dream realised of Alexander Serda, an Austrian architect who wanted to build a full-size version of a Porsche wooden toy lorry he had when he was young.

How the collection came to be

The original idea was to have everything ready in time to attend the 2018 Goodwood Festival of Speed - and, fittingly, to make the journey by lorry - specifically for the celebrations marking Porsche’s 70th anniversary.

In the end, logistical complications meant that plan never happened. Instead, the six Porsche 911s that make up the collection have spent the last five years stored away in a warehouse.

Serda has now decided it is time for the iconic The Toys for Boys Collection to find a new owner, offered as a single package that is bound to catch the eye of Stuttgart’s most devoted followers. There is plenty here to draw interest - starting, naturally, with the cars themselves.

Six very special names

As mentioned earlier, this group brings together virtually all the GT3 offshoots of the Porsche 911 (991) - and all of them are effectively as new. Each of the six cars has delivery mileage only, they have had one owner from new, and their service records are fully up to date.

The list includes:

• 2016 - Porsche 911 (991) R
• 2018 - Porsche 911 (991) GT3 R
• 2018 - Porsche 911 (991.2) GT3 Touring
• 2018 - Porsche 911 (991.2) GT3 RS Weissach Package
• 2018 - Porsche 911 (991.2) GT3 Clubsport
• 2018 - Porsche 911 (991.2) GT3 Cup

Porsche 911 R: the centrepiece

These models need little introduction, and the 911 R - it does not wear the GT3 badge, but its hardware is essentially the same as the GT3 RS (991.1) - stands out as the most valuable example in the line-up.

It is worth remembering that only 991 units were built, featuring a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six producing 500 hp and 460 Nm, sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox.

Track-only GT3 models and the Clubsport

Also notable are the GT3 Cup and GT3 R, both dedicated competition cars, along with the 911 GT3 Clubsport - a variant positioned between the GT3 and the more radical (and circuit-focused) GT3 RS.

Truck and trailer included

On top of the cars - which form a genuinely unusual sale - the package also includes a MAN TGX lorry and a Rolfo trailer capable of carrying six vehicles.

How much will you need to pay?

RPM Technik, the company handling the sale, says the collection will only be sold as a complete set, with no option to buy any of the cars separately. The price has not been made public either, and is available on request only.

Even so, considering a Porsche 911 R with delivery mileage recently sold at auction for 1.1 million dollars (around one million euros), it is clear that taking this collection home will require a substantial fortune.

This is one of the most unusual sales we have come across, and a collection that appears to satisfy every demand from Porsche’s most hard-line purists.

For that reason, it should not be difficult to find a buyer prepared to pay whatever it takes to bring this (fully loaded) lorry home.
