really?
That doesn't make sense to me considering that Porsche sells certified pre owned cars. Convertibles like the Boxster seldom have open ended leases (option to buy).
Either Porsche expects there to be allot of bidding, which defeats the whole purppose of auto auctions for non-collectibles or
they are the less desireable lease returns(failed certification).

I worked for the federal government in law enforcement briefly (I was a contractor actually) and ocassionally I would hear about the DEA, CUSTOMS and FBI auctions of seized vehicles. Many were high end particularly in the warmer parts like South Florida, Houston and LA. But law enforcement were barred from bidding on cars they seized so we never knew anyone who got an M3 minus the seats and door panels
