Specialty and limited production automobiles.
FOCUS
Our focus reflects our personal taste in cars, and our background in both motorsport and concours preparation. The primary acquisition emphasis at Northwest European is on the following automotive genres:
Limited Production European sports cars, motorcycles, and race cars from the 1960s through the early 2000s
Homologation Specials (race/rally) from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s - What is a Homologation Special?
Air-cooled Porsche 911 models and modern Porsche GT and RS models
Additionally, as automotive enthusiasts with an extensive client list, we transact in a variety of specialty and limited production automobiles as you can see in our current and past inventory. We sell the cars our clients want us to sell, as long as they align with our overall interests and meet our quality bar.
We know how to prepare and market cars, and as such clients seek us out to help educate them on their options. From these conversations, clients often ask us to represent their car for sale, which we are happy to do.
PHILOSOPHY
We are by choice a small boutique for great cars. This size means we have the freedom to focus on clients and take the time each transaction requires.
Transparency – We conduct all sales and acquisitions in complete transparency with our clients and customers. This makes for a warm and enjoyable experience and long-lasting relationships. Many of our clients have become some of our closest friends over the years.
Effortlessness – We are able to offer a one stop shop for our clients and customers. For anything we cannot offer in house, we have the proper network of specialists to attend to any needs. We offer market insights, a deep understanding of vehicle preparation/presentation, and professional help in surrounding topics. Ultimately, this makes a client’s life easier whether buying or selling.
Finally, cars are what bring all of us as automotive enthusiasts together, and lifetime friendships are formed. It does not matter if it is a blue chip collectible, an old farm truck, or a weekend racer -- get out and drive, take the long way home, and keep looking for the next road. Never stop playing with cars.
HISTORY
From the beginning in the early 1990s, we have been involved with some of the most wonderful cars in the world. Over the years our scope has broadened, and our knowledge intensified over a growing list of marques - with an ever-growing network of clients and industry professionals.
More formally, we began buying and selling cars in 2008 out of our 6,000 square foot facility in Issaquah, Washington. As the volume of transactions grew, that evolved into a full-time business in 2015 - buying, selling, brokering, and consigning specialty and limited production automobiles.
