Jerry Seinfeld Sues California Classic Car Dealer Over '58 Porsche
Jerry Seinfeld sued a California dealer in classic cars Monday, saying the company has left the comedian stranded in a dispute over whether a 1958 Porsche he sold is authentic.
The suit comes weeks after Seinfeld was sued by a company that says it bought the comedian's Porsche for $1.5 million only to learn it was fake.
In the lawsuit, Seinfeld says he bought the car from European Collectibles for $1.2 million in February 2013. The suit says he relied on the company's certificate of authenticity.
Seinfeld then sold the car in March 2016 to Fica Frio Limited, based in the Channel Islands. Fica Frio, which sued Seinfeld earlier this month, wants to recover the money it spent on the sale and all costs it has incurred.

would definitely need an oversized slab....
Yep. Porsche's are really tough to get into a slab -- the spoiler keeps sticking out !
As with other things, misrepresentation or counterfeit status voids any sale except "as is where is."
Interesting ...
I have heard about guys turning Fords into late model Edsel convertables (76 produced in 1960), but this is a new one to me.
Really, I should have such problems. Peace Roy

No offense to the OP, BUT
I can think of about 3 million things I care more about than poor Jerry Seinfeld's certification problems. Poor baby.

There are fakes in all areas of collecting... from coins, to paintings, to cars, to firearms, to handbags, to shoes and on and on. Where there is profit, there are thieves....Cheers, RickO
