Broad Arrow Las Vegas Auction Preview: 2014 Ferrari LaFerrari

Few cars have defined an era like the Ferrari LaFerrari, and few settings suit one like Las Vegas. As official auction partner of the Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, Broad Arrow returns for its second annual Las Vegas Auction on 31 October with more than 30 Ferraris on offer, among them this exquisitely specified example. When Ferrari opened the order books for its new flagship, the outcome was never in doubt. All 499 examples were claimed before the first was completed. One American collector recalled being asked to submit a multipage autobiography simply to be considered for an allocation. With demand like that, Maranello could have offered almost anything and still sold out. Instead, it built the most capable road car in the company's history to that point. LaFerrari followed the 288 GTO, F40, F50, and Enzo, and was the first of the marque's flagship road cars to join a naturally aspirated V12 with Formula 1–derived hybrid technology. Its 6.3-liter engine produced 789 horsepower, and a 161-horsepower electric motor filled in beneath it for a combined 950 horsepower. At Fiorano, the LaFerrari lapped the track in one minute and 20 seconds—five seconds quicker than the Enzo it replaced and three seconds quicker than the F12berlinetta, making LaFerrari the fastest road car Ferrari had yet built. Ferrari quoted a 0–60 mph time of under three seconds, 0–124 mph in less than seven seconds, and a top speed in excess of 217 mph. The numbers told only part of the story, however. Road & Track's Jack Baruth spent two days with a privately owned example on Ohio back roads and came away impressed by how readily it adapted to everyday use, reflecting that “the Ferrari didn't have to be as good as it is.” Set to be offered at Broad Arrow’s Las Vegas Auction on 31 October, chassis number 206520 is one of approximately 120 examples allocated to the American market. It is finished in the archetypal combination of Rosso Corsa over Nero leather with Rosso accents and laden with optional carbon fiber. Most distinctive is a carbon fiber front fin commissioned through Ferrari's Atelier program, joined by carbon fiber lower bodywork, mirror holders, rear fog lamp surround, and wheel center caps. The optional sport exhaust, Rosso calipers, and black-finished wheels complete the cohesive red-and-black livery. The color scheme is carried inside through a Rosso livery on the matte carbon-fiber dashboard, joined by Cavallinos stitched into the Nero leather seats. The track camera kit records the car's capabilities from over the passenger's shoulder, and the front suspension lifter makes it far more practical on steep driveways and ramps. Two personal touches complete the cockpit, a dedication plaque etched with “Razor 2” on the steering wheel and an American flag on the dashboard. The accompanying CARFAX Vehicle History Report records that chassis 206520 was delivered new in November 2014 through Wide World of Cars in Spring Valley, New York. It was subsequently registered in Montana, with Wide World and Ferrari of West Palm Beach looking after it during its early years. In 2019 the LaFerrari moved to California, where it was reportedly owned by recording artist Tyga and later by producer Swizz Beatz. Throughout the early 2020s, the car saw continued routine maintenance by Ferrari South Bay, Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale, and Ferrari of San Diego. Most recently, in October 2026, a visit to Ferrari of San Diego saw the car undergo its 25,000-mile-interval service, which included a new alternator. The LaFerrari is further accompanied by a two-year Certified Pre-Owned warranty, which extends to its hybrid battery and remains in effect until October 2028. Displaying 5,439 miles at the time of cataloging, the car is presented in commensurately well-preserved condition with its original accessories. These include the Ferrari-branded battery charger, a fitted indoor car cover, and the original tools. Together with the McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder, LaFerrari formed the celebrated “big three” that ushered hybridization into the hypercar world, and with it, a level of performance never before seen in a road car. LaFerrari was intensely coveted from the moment it was announced, and it remains so today. An example so classically specified, with numerous desirable options, low mileage, and dealer maintenance throughout its life, represents precisely what collectors seek in this landmark model. This October, Broad Arrow returns as the official auction partner of Concours at Wynn Las Vegas for the second annual Las Vegas Auction, where the spectacle of the Strip meets the refinement of the concours lawn. Bringing more than 30 Ferraris to market on 31 October, the lineup traces the marque’s story across eras, from the electrified performance of LaFerrari to three-pedal modern classics that deliver an unfiltered, analog connection between driver and machine.

Broad Arrow Las Vegas Auction Preview: 2025 Ferrari Daytona SP3

The Ferrari Daytona SP3, the second model in Ferrari’s “Icona” series, is many things at once—a rolling tribute to one of the marque’s most triumphant afternoons, a showcase of naturally aspirated engineering at its peak, and quite possibly the final chapter in a mid-engine, naturally aspirated lineage that began nearly sixty years ago.  On 31 October, Broad Arrow will bring to market this bespoke example of Ferrari’s latest model from the extremely limited production “Icona” series as part of a 75+ collector car lineup at the second annual Las Vegas Auction. The lineage of the SP3 traces its origins back to 5 February 1967, the day Ferrari swept first, second, and third at the 24 Hours of Daytona, completing a very personal act of defiance against Henry Ford II. The cars that achieved it, the 330 P3/P4 and 412P, became the spiritual blueprints for the SP3. Senior designer Jason Furtado spent three years under Ferrari chief designer Flavio Manzoni translating those prototype racers into something road-legal, and the lineage is unmistakable. The full-width rear spoiler mirrors the 1967 330 P3/4's, the heat-exhausting rear spine pays homage to the open-top Spyder variants of the 330, and the dramatically pinched waist gives the car the same aggression as those legendary racers. Even the dramatic, horizontal rear strakes trace back to Pininfarina's 1968 250 P5 Berlinetta Speciale concept.   Yet for all its historical homages, the SP3's technical layout is entirely modern and deliberately stripped back. Ferrari achieved its aerodynamic targets without a single active element, instead channeling air over the front arches, through door intakes, and out via the rear diffuser in an elegantly passive system. The carbon-fiber monocoque is rigid and lightweight, the seats fixed directly to the tub, with the driving position set via a movable pedal box in a direct link to the '60s sports racers.   Behind the driver sits the 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12, producing 829 horsepower at 9,250 rpm—Ferrari's most powerful road-going engine ever. Derived from the 812 Competizione's F140 unit, it was thoroughly reworked with titanium pistons, cams, connecting rods, and valves. That same F140 architecture debuted in the earth-shattering Ferrari Enzo in 2002, before being paired with a hybrid KERS system in its successor, the LaFerrari.   While technically separated from those halo projects as part of the Icona series, the SP3 arguably functions as their true spiritual successor, and perhaps the most honest expression of the lineage yet. Where the LaFerrari leaned into the nascent hybrid technology emerging in 2013, the SP3 strips everything back, delivering the mid-engine V12 experience in its purest, most unmediated form. With Ferrari's newly revealed V6-powered F80 leaning heavily into hybridization, and the broader industry shifting away from naturally aspirated engines, the SP3 may well be the last mid-engine, naturally aspirated V12 Ferrari ever built for the road.   Only 600 were built with each example being quickly snatched up by Ferrari’s most valued clients before production even began. The SP3 presented here, chassis number 314846, bears an October 2024 production date and was subsequently dispatched to Ferrari North America Inc. in Englewood, New Jersey, and delivered through Ferrari Long Island according to its special-series “Yellow Book” issued at the time of production. As tempting as it may have been to specify the timeless form of the Daytona in an equally timeless red hue, the commissioning owner instead chose the exquisite bespoke shade of Verde Francesca—an Extracampionario (extra-range) color that added an astounding $42,185 to the original purchase price. The lower bodywork, as well as the front splitter, side sills, and lid lip are finished in glossy carbon fiber, as is the hardtop, in keeping with the model’s weight-conscious ethos. Glossy black brake calipers and the coveted airbrushed Scuderia Ferrari shields complete this breathtaking specification.   Inside, the minimalist yet luxurious cabin is trimmed in Nero Alcantara throughout the primary surfaces, with the seats and door panel padding rendered in Mustard Aunde Jeans, creating a sophisticated, two-tone appearance. The Dreamlines on the F1 paddles echo the exterior Verde Francesca shade, while tone-on-tone stitching runs throughout in yellow thread on the Mustard elements, and black thread on the Nero sections. The Cavallino emblems are embroidered on the headrests, and a dedication plaque carries the Tailor Made logo alongside “Daytona SP3 Limited Edition.” Practical considerations have not been overlooked either, with Apple CarPlay, front and rear parking cameras, a front-axle lift system, and a handy fire extinguisher all specified to ensure the car remains as usable as it is striking.   Since its delivery, the Daytona has been deliberately preserved in as-new condition, displaying just 81 miles at the time of cataloging and retaining several sought-after delivery items. The car is joined by a 1:8 scale Amalgam model, red leather backpack and duffle bag, and two pairs of matching driving gloves. The car is further accompanied by its owner’s manuals in their folio, carbon fiber hardtop in its original storage bag, car cover, tool kit, two keys, window sticker, battery tender, tire inflator, and the aforementioned Yellow Book.   In the pursuit of ultimate performance, Maranello has increasingly embraced forced induction and hybrid power, a philosophy carried to its logical extreme with the recently revealed F80, which pairs a twin-turbocharged V6 with three electric motors to produce nearly 1,200 horsepower. It is a breathtaking achievement, but one that marks a decisive departure from the long lineage of high-revving, naturally aspirated engines that defined the marque for the better part of a century. The SP3, by contrast, is a love letter to a different kind of greatness—to the golden age of sports prototype racing, to the howl of a naturally aspirated V12 climbing toward 9,250 rpm, and to the era when Ferrari conquered Daytona with sheer mechanical artistry. Where the F80 looks forward, the SP3 looks back with remarkable clarity, and makes an overwhelming case that something profound would be lost if this chapter were simply allowed to close.   The collector market has recognized as much. In the few short years since the SP3's announcement, values have climbed sharply, reflecting both the model's extreme exclusivity and a growing understanding that it may represent the final expression of this particular lineage. Chassis number 314846, with its stunning Tailor Made specification, delivery mileage, and complete complement of factory items, is precisely the kind of example that commands attention in any serious collection. It is, in the truest sense, a car for those who understand what Ferrari has been, and what it may never quite be again. Held in partnership with Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, Broad Arrow’s second annual Las Vegas Auction will present collectors with numerous compelling acquisition opportunities amid a weekend dedicated to celebrating the best in automotive performance and design.

Broad Arrow Las Vegas Auction Preview: 2003 Ferrari Enzo

The Ferrari Enzo stands among the most consequential automobiles to ever emerge from Maranello—a celebration of the marque’s storied history, Formula 1 engineering translated for the road, and an honorary tribute to Il Commendatore himself.This October, Broad Arrow returns to Wynn Las Vegas on 31 October for the second annual Las Vegas Auction, presenting collectors with the rare opportunity to acquire a sorted, driver-focused example of Ferrari’s turn-of-the-century hypercar, one ready to be driven exactly as its namesake intended.Ferrari's Formula 1 program had never been more commanding than it was in the summer of 2002. Michael Schumacher took the Drivers' Championship after only 11 Grands Prix, with the Constructors' title following close behind, and Ferrari launched the Enzo that same year to mark the achievement and to honor its founder.Publicly unveiled in September 2002 at the Paris Motor Show, the Enzo represents the singular, road-going expression of the engineering that had made Ferrari unbeatable in Formula 1 at the turn of the millennium. Composite construction was used throughout the monocoque and the body, much of it aluminum honeycomb, Nomex and carbon fiber sandwich panels and the carbon weave was left visible inside the cabin. Pininfarina's Ken Okuyama—whose signature this example carries—shaped the bodywork around an underbody diffuser in place of a rear wing, while pushrod-actuated dampers worked at all four corners. Brembo supplied carbon-ceramic discs of the kind used in Formula 1, which delivered enormous stopping power while cutting unsprung weight. The all-new 6.0-liter Tipo F140 B V12 was the first of a new engine family for Maranello, designed around four-valve combustion chambers and variable inlet timing to produce 651 horsepower. Its electro-hydraulic six-speed transmission shifted in roughly 150 milliseconds, with Sport and Corsa modes and launch control borrowed directly from the grand prix cars. Top speed was 217 mph, 60 mph arrived in 3.3 seconds and the car could run from rest to 124 mph and back to a standstill in 14.2 seconds.Completed at Maranello in February 2003 and finished in an all-red Rosso Corsa over Pelle Rossa livery, chassis number 131631 was among 111 Enzos originally dispatched to the United States of the 400 produced. Marque historian Marcel Massini records that the car was sold new on 13 May 2003 through Ferrari of Long Island in Plainview, New York, to its first owner.In July 2003, the Enzo passed to a second owner in Texas. It was during this ownership that a routine service uncovered a valvetrain issue known to affect a number of early Enzos, a flaw the factory advised their dealer network to watch for at the time. Upon discovery, Ferrari replaced the engine under warranty, shipping the original unit back to Maranello for analysis and fitting a complete replacement, number 73365. The substitution is documented in the car's Ferrari Classiche Red Book, which states "Engine replaced by Ferrari Spa in 2005.” For collectors seeking properly sorted driving examples, an Enzo that has already been through this process is often preferred to a low-mileage example still on its original engine, which has yet to accumulate the use that would reveal any hidden faults.In August 2006, chassis 131631 was acquired by a Nevada collector. Shortly afterward, while being transported to the owner's second home, it sustained some damage. Ferrari of Las Vegas subsequently carried out the repairs to factory specifications to the passenger side, the right-rear quarter panel, and the undertray. The damage was moderate enough that the car's CARFAX Vehicle History Report remains clean with no accidents or damage noted and the accompanying Classiche “Red Book” does not note any bodywork or chassis repairs. Ferrari of Las Vegas also carried out an exterior color change to Nero following the repairs, a color originally applied to just a dozen North American–delivery examples. The car passed through one further Nevada owner before leaving the United States. According to the Massini Report, it passed through several hands, moving through Monte Carlo, Vienna, and Switzerland before arriving in Munich, Germany in 2010. It was during this European chapter that a previous owner made the decision to return it to its original color, commissioning Carrozzeria Zanasi in Maranello to return the car to its original Rosso Corsa presentation. The interior, originally trimmed in Pelle Rossa, was retrimmed in Pelle Nera, a subtle yet appealing change that lends the red coachwork a more purposeful contrast. Few firms could have been better suited to the work. Established in Maranello in 1964 at Enzo Ferrari's own request and still a factory-authorized carrozzeria, Zanasi carries out much of the paintwork for Ferrari's special-order and Tailor Made programs and has finished the marque's limited-series flagships—which makes the refinishing of chassis 131631 a return to the very hands Maranello trusts with its most important cars, rather than a typical repaint.The present owner acquired chassis 131631 in 2024. Most recently, on 5 March 2026 at 17,159 miles, the car was serviced by Ferrari Dallas in Plano, Texas, where it received the annual fluid and filter service, a multi-point inspection, four new tires, a four-wheel alignment, a new battery, a replacement passenger-side dashboard air vent and cosmetic refinishing beneath the front bumper—addressing the light scraping common to cars of such minimal ground clearance.With Enzo values climbing so steeply in recent times, a great many of the 400 built now lead sedentary lives, delivery-mileage cars passed between private collections, admired and photographed but rarely exercised. Against that backdrop, chassis 131631 is an enticing proposition. Resplendent in its original Rosso Corsa finish, this is an Enzo that has been properly sorted, its known history addressed and resolved, leaving nothing to the imagination. Enzo Ferrari had little patience for travel as mere transport. Asked once about driving, he said that getting from one place to the next had never been the appeal: "I enjoy feeling the car's reactions, becoming part of it." Ferrari Classiche certified, comprehensively documented, freshly serviced by Ferrari Dallas and asking nothing of its next owner but to be driven, chassis 131631 is among the few Enzos genuinely prepared to be used the way its namesake intended. Enter it in the Cavalcade Classiche, run it on any of the marque's touring rallies, or simply drive it home from the sale.Join Broad Arrow in Las Vegas this October as a selection of modern Ferraris—examples that remain at the forefront of today’s collector car market—will be offered against the energetic backdrop of the city. Each offering represents an opportunity to acquire a significant piece of Maranello’s Formula 1 achievements distilled for the road.

Broad Arrow Las Vegas Auction Preview: 1997 Ferrari F50

The F50 was by no means the first road car to draw on Formula 1 engineering, but when it was unveiled at the 1995 Geneva Motor Show in anticipation of Ferrari's 50th anniversary, it was arguably the most literal translation of Grand Prix technology to the street yet attempted. Road & Track's technical analysis described it as virtually a road-going version of the 333 SP, the multiple IMSA GT and FIA championship-winning sports-racer Ferrari had developed from its 1990 F1 program. Paul Frère, winner of the 1960 24 Hours of Le Mans, wrote in the magazine that company president Luca di Montezemolo wanted the car to give its driver “the impression that he drives a Grand Prix car.”With just 106 miles from new, Broad Arrow is pleased to present this 1997 Ferrari F50 as the star lot of the upcoming Las Vegas Auction on 31 October. Surrounded by the energy and excitement of one of the automotive world’s most glamorous events, the offering of chassis 107165 is the closest collectors can get to taking delivery of a brand new F50. Powering an unforgettable analog driving experience is the 4.7-liter, 65-degree V12 developed from Ferrari's 3.5-liter Formula 1 unit, with five valves per cylinder, titanium connecting rods, and dry-sump lubrication. It produces 513 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque. As in a Grand Prix car, its cast-iron block was bolted directly to the back of a 225-pound carbon-fiber tub and carried the rear suspension. Pushrod-actuated double wishbones with electronically controlled damping, titanium hubs, unassisted steering, and Brembo brakes without servo assistance reinforced its connection to the F1 single-seater. Unlike Ferrari's F1 cars, however, which had used electro-hydraulic paddle shifters since 1989, the F50 kept a six-speed manual shifted through a traditional open gate, and it would be the last of Ferrari's halo cars to do so.Development testing involved Jean Alesi, Gerhard Berger, Niki Lauda, and chief tester Dario Benuzzi. Road & Track recorded zero to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, while Ferrari claimed top speed of 202 mph. Its testers observed that where most exotics merely hint at the racing experience, the F50 “slaps you in the face with all its visceral ingredients.” To avoid a repeat of the F40, which was built in 1,311 examples to meet its exploding demand, Ferrari built just 349 examples between 1995 and 1997 to ensure its exclusivity.The F50 offered here, chassis number 107165, is the 334th of those 349 cars, a late-production example delivered new via Maranello Sales Ltd. of Egham, Surrey, whose decal it still wears on the windshield. It is finished in Rosso Corsa over Nero leather with Rosso seat inserts, the combination most closely identified with the model. In the nearly three decades since it left the factory, it has covered an astonishing 106 miles. Ferrari built the F50 to be driven hard, and most surviving examples show at least some evidence of it, but this example has been entirely spared from the moment it was delivered. As a result, its paintwork, carbon-fiber cabin, leather upholstery, and switchgear are free of the fading, wear, and handling marks that even careful use brings. The car presents today much as it would have on the day Maranello Sales handed it over.As one would expect given its time-warp condition, its factory accessories have been preserved to the same standard. The car is offered with its removable hardtop and the original flight case that houses it whenever the F50 is run as a barchetta. Also present are its J.P. Tod's driving shoes and three-piece Schedoni luggage set with dust covers, along with its tool kit, wheel socket, and fuse, bulb, and belt kit. Its car, seat, and steering wheel covers in their Ferrari-branded bag finish the set. Items such as these were routinely separated from their cars over the years, lost between owners, or simply used, which makes the full complement alongside an F50 of this mileage truly exceptional. The F50 long ago made the passage from new car to blue-chip collectible, and the chance to buy one in delivery condition largely went with it. Chassis 107165 is the exception. Impeccably preserved and complete with its original delivery items, its offering at the second annual Las Vegas Auction on 31 October is as close as one can come today to taking delivery of a new F50. For the collector who wants the model exactly as Ferrari built it, a better-preserved or more complete example would be very difficult to find.Experience an extraordinary weekend where collector cars, luxury, and entertainment come together in the heart of Las Vegas. In partnership with Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, Broad Arrow’s 31 October auction will offer collectors the opportunity to acquire a range of sought-after modern Ferraris as part of a 75+ collector car lineup.

From a Pre-War Ford to a Modern Exotic: Inside the Hale Collection, Available Exclusively on duPont REGISTRY Live

When duPont REGISTRY Live launched in mid-November 2025, the premise was straightforward: a No Reserve, 100 percent sell-through online auction platform built around the collector car market. Nearly a year on, that formula has produced multiple auction records, including the first eight-figure result in the history of online collector car auctions. Hypercars, exotics, and luxury cars have remained the staple, but the platform has also been quietly building something broader. After a successful run with the SFX Collection, which brought 10 modern performance cars to the platform in a single consignment, duPont REGISTRY Live now presents the prestigious Hale Collection: 12 exquisite automobiles curated by an anonymous collector with a clear and deliberate point of view. The collection also brings the platform into pre-war territory for the first time, another milestone as its auction docket continues to broaden. What makes the Hale Collection particularly interesting is the sheer range it covers. Of the eight cars currently open for bidding, the oldest is a 1931 Ford Model A Five-Window Coupe, while the newest is a one-owner 2006 Ford GT showing just 3,900 miles. Separated by 75 years, the pair spans a collection that traces several distinct eras of enthusiast motoring. It also marks the largest simultaneous offering of classic cars yet seen on duPont REGISTRY Live. Between them are recognizable snapshots of postwar American and European motoring. A 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air finished in India Ivory and Harvest Gold represents the exuberance of 1950s America, while a Twin Paxton-supercharged 1966 Shelby GT350 brings considerably more performance to the equation. British sports cars are represented by a Dart 347 V8-powered 1967 Sunbeam Tiger, a 1973 Triumph GT-6 Mark III, and a 1978 Triumph Spitfire 1500, while a Mocha Brown 1979 Porsche 911 SC adds an air-cooled German icon to the mix. 8 of the collection's 12 are currently available on duPont REGISTRY Live, all offered at No Reserve.  1931 Ford Model A Pre-War American Icon | Rumble Seat | Closing Tomorrow View Listing 1967 Sunbeam Tiger Dart 347 V8 | Midnight Blue | Closing Tomorrow View Listing  1973 Triumph GT-6 Mark III Triple Weber Carburetors | Carmine Red over Black | Closing Tomorrow View Listing  1979 Porsche 911 SC  Mocha Brown over a Brown leather interior | Fuchs Wheels | Closing Tomorrow View Listing  2006 Ford GT Tungsten Grey Metallic racing stripes over an Ebony leather interior | 3,915 Miles | Closing Tomorrow View Listing  1955 Chevrolet Bel Air India Ivory and Harvest Gold | 327-Cubic-Inch V8 | No Reserve View Listing  1966 Shelby GT350 Twin Supercharged | Sapphire Blue with White racing stripes | No Reserve View Listing  1978 Triumph Spitfire 1500 Blue over Tan | Removable Hardtop | No Reserve View Listing  If you're interested in financing any other exotic car, be sure to get pre-qualified.

Mecum Auctions Nashville 2026: Top 10 Results and Highlights

Last week, Mecum Auctions made its first major collector-car stop in Tennessee, taking over Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon for its inaugural Nashville auction. Held from September 22 through 26, the event brought roughly 1,750 vehicles featuring 17 collections, a substantial increase over the approximately 1,200 cars originally projected when the event was announced in March. The top result, however, came from Maranello. A 316-mile 2024 Ferrari 812 Competizione Aperta, closed at $4.05 million, selling after the auction through Mecum’s Bid Goes On department. It accounted for more than a third of the $10.5 million generated by the Top 10 alone. The 812 Competizione featured in our recent list about top front-engine V12 Ferraris. Ford occupied much of the remainder of the top-end results. The 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra “Nobody’s Fool” IMSA road-racing car brought $935,000. Built by Roush Racing and driven by Paul Newman at the 1995 Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Mustang won the GTS-1 class and finished third overall. Its race history, period bodywork, and association with Newman give it a level of provenance that separates it from the production-based cars elsewhere in the sale. Another Roush-built Mustang finished close behind: The 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra SCCA Trans-Am racer, which sold for $825,000. Tommy Kendall drove the car during his dominant 1997 season, when he recorded 11 consecutive victories on his way to the Trans-Am championship. A trio of Ford GTs followed. A track-only 2020 Ford GT Mk II,  #14 of only 45 produced and showing 96 miles, brought $792,000. It was followed by two first-generation Ford GTs: a red 70-mile 2005 example at $770,000 and a 1,276-mile 2006 car at $737,000, respectively. The strongest custom result came from a 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer, which sold for $693,000. Built around a Roadster Shop chassis and suspension and powered by a supercharged 416-cubic-inch V8 rated at 1,160 horsepower, the truck showed that substantial money continues to follow highly developed American restomods. A 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429, one of approximately 850 produced for the model year, brought $616,000. European machinery was relatively scarce among the leading results beyond the headline Ferrari. A 1965 Aston Martin DB5, chassis DB52025R, equipped with a rare factory sliding sunroof, sold for $605,000, while a 2014 Ferrari 458 Spider with 3,774 miles brought $533,500, rounding out the top 10. Not every high-profile consignment found a buyer. A 2019 Koenigsegg Regera, one of 80 made, reached $2.9 million; a Ferrari 488 Pista Piloti hit $1.95 million; a Marc Philipp Gemballa Marsien hit $1.55 million; and the much-anticipated 2026 Aston Martin Valhalla hit $1.3 million. Collectively, Mecum's inaugural Nashville auction achieved $73 million total sales, and a 75% sell-through rate.

UFC’s Dana White Secures Two Ram Trucks With a $1.5 Million Charity Bid at Barrett-Jackson’s Las Vegas Auction

UFC President and CEO Dana White placed the winning bid of $1.5 million for two one-of-one Ram performance trucks on day two of Barrett-Jackson's Las Vegas Auction this past Friday, having arrived to help drive bidding on the charity lot. He joined Barrett-Jackson Chairman and CEO Craig Jackson on the auction block as the trucks were offered as one lot. Bidding opened at $600,000 and kept climbing, quickly getting into seven figures before the gavel finally dropped at $1.5 million. White, who said he would also participate, was the winning bidder. The auction took place on September 11, exactly 25 years after the 2001 attacks. Jackson reflected on the date's significance, noting the lives lost and the first responders and others who came to their aid, which made the occasion especially meaningful for supporting military and first-responder families. “Barrett-Jackson has a long history of uniting automotive passion with incredible charitable causes. Partnering with global powerhouses like Ram, UFC and RealTruck allows us to amplify our fundraising efforts. Having Dana White bring his unmatched energy to our Las Vegas auction.”  - Craig Jackson, Barrett-Jackson Chairman and CEO. The centerpiece of the pair is the first retail-production (Lot #3000), a 2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee SRT, VIN 001, pulled off the line for a one-off treatment by Ram's design team and SRT's Direct Connection group. In standard form, its supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 produces 777 horsepower, enough for 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds and a targeted 170-mph top speed. This truck is also equipped with a Direct Connection 3.0-liter supercharger upgrade capable of more than 900 horsepower, plus a Magnaflow stainless steel exhaust, along with the option to choose a custom paint scheme. The second truck was (Lot #3001) a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 SRT-10 customized by RealTruck and built by ProMotorsports with Mark Trostle, vice president of Ram, SRT, and Mopar Design. Powered by the Dodge Viper’s 8.3-liter V10, the SRT-10 produces 500 horsepower and famously established a Guinness World Record for production-pickup speed at 155 mph. RealTruck further added that the SRT-10 served as the design inspiration for the Rumble Bee.  “The opportunity to support these great causes while bringing together two of the most exciting trucks in Ram history is an honor. Together, they celebrate American performance, American ingenuity and the resilient spirit that has carried this country through every challenge” - Tim Kuniskis, head of American Brands and SRT Performance at Stellantis. Barrett-Jackson waived all fees and commissions, with 100 percent of the hammer price divided equally between the Folds of Honor Foundation and the UFC Foundation. Folds of Honor provides educational scholarships to families of fallen or disabled military service members and first responders, while the UFC Foundation’s share will support Hispanic charities.
