Beckham’s Porsche on sale on ebay
By IANSFriday, January 7, 2011
LONDON - Soccer star David Beckham is reportedly selling his Porsche sports car worth $150,000 on internet auction site eBay.
The 35-year-old England soccer ace has owned the car for the last two years, but now wants to get rid of it.
Beckham paid $100,000 for the matt-black automobile when he purchased it in 2008 and spent a further $50,000 in customising it.
The car features heated front seats and has emblazoned in the interior the number 23 - the number shirt Beckham plays in for current soccer team Los Angeles Galaxy and which he wore at Real Madrid.
The car is being sold on eBay through Los Angeles dealer Chequered Flag and the top bid currently stands at $134,000. It is set to rise because of its unique owner history.
“This is an opportunity to acquire a supercar with an unparalleled celebrity history,” contactmusic.com quoted Neil Jaffe from Chequered Flag as saying.
