Is there some sort of recourse? no, just as any other car part you buy.
He probably didn't sleep much last night, thinking of things but when he got up, the verdict is all will go: the 911, the Lotus, the 930, what is left of the Focus RS, the 4 post lift and the scissor lift. Now how to go about off loading everything is the question.

I wouldn't be too hasty. I understand the train of thought but there might be some serious regrets. Sell the Lotus and one of the Porsches - let some time pass and see how you feel. If you still feel the same sell the other Porsche. Once they're gone, they're gone, you don't want to say "Crap, what have we done?".
