A group of 21 collectible vehicles from the personal collection of the late actor Paul Walker has been consigned to Barrett-Jackson’s 49th Annual Scottsdale Auction, January 11-19, 2020. Best known for his role as Brian O’Connor in the renowned The Fast and the Furious franchise and his charitable work that carries on through the Paul Walker Foundation, founded by his daughter Meadow and Reach Out Worldwide, Walker’s vehicles will cross the block during The World’s Greatest Collector Car Auction at WestWorld of Scottsdale.
“We’re deeply honored to offer the amazing Paul Walker Collection at our 2020 Scottsdale Auction,” said Craig Jackson chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “Paul’s impact was immense through both his influence as an actor in the The Fast and the Furious movies and his philanthropic drive as the founder of Reach Out Worldwide. We’re proud to help continue Paul Walker’s legacy by offering his esteemed collection to their new caretakers at our flagship Scottsdale event.”
Highlighting the Paul Walker collection are seven BMW M3s, comprised of two E30 M3s and five E36 M3 Lightweights. The M3 Lightweight is a lighter, track-oriented version of the revered E36 M3. Nearly all Lightweights featured a more aggressive rear wing and front spoiler, along with an Alpine White paint scheme finished with a BMW Motorsport colored checkered flag livery. Powered by a BMW S50 3.0-liter straight-6 engine and backed by a 5-speed manual transmission, the 2,950-pound Lightweight was factory-rated at 240hp. This gathering of five 1995 BMW M3 Lightweights of the 125 produced will be the most E36 lightweights ever sold at a single auction.
“Paul Walker’s collection spanned five decades of automotive excellence and truly reflected his personal taste,” said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. “Paul’s passion for performance was especially expressed in the cars he loved. This group of vehicles also represents the evolution of the hobby, as collectors are clearly broadening their horizons and diversifying their collections.”
Other highlighted vehicles include a never-raced 2013 Ford Boss 302S race. This pristine Boss 302S is powered by a 5.0-liter Ford Racing V8 engine equipped with unique Ford Racing PCS software and an abundance of other official Ford Racing components. Power is sent through a 6-speed manual transmission with Exedy clutch to a Torsen T2R differential with 3.73 gears.
A custom 2009 Nissan 370Z with only 2,623 miles that made an appearance in the film Fast Five will also be sold. This low-mileage movie car is powered by a 3.7-liter V6 engine producing 332hp backed by a 5-speed manual transmission and has countless performance upgrades.
