Seinfeld spoke about his love of cars to fans at the 2016 auction, saying he wanted to be there to see people who shared his passion, reported CNBC. The sitcom star added that he buys cars for the love of it, not as an investment: “I never thought these cars were going to increase in value. I’m not a collector who gets cars to make money. I love the feeling of the car.”
