Another active week unfolded on duPont REGISTRY Live, with factory specials, a curated single-owner collection, and purpose-built performance cars leading a diverse set of results across multiple market segments. Italian exotics accounted for much of the activity, but the week also brought several useful comparisons. The current docket carries that variety forward, combining modern limited-production exotics with analog performance cars and increasingly difficult-to-find classics.
Lots Closed: Highlights
14 cars hammered this past week on dR Live, with half of them coming from Maranello. A 2021 F8 Spider, finished in Extracampionara Blu Corsa, with 12,419 miles and roughly $60,000 in factory options, led at $443,100*. Blu Corsa and a substantial options list gave this car plenty of specification appeal, but its five-figure mileage provides important context against lower-mileage F8 Spiders elsewhere in the market. For context, the F8 Spider’s current dRi value of $639,885 gives us another useful benchmark. Also, the F8 occupies an increasingly interesting position as Ferrari's final series-production mid-engine V8 Spider without hybrid assistance.
Six Ferraris from the Rosso Eterno Collection also gave us plenty of price comparisons. Two front-engine V12 Ferrari 599 GTBs closed together on the same day. A 2010 car finished in Grigio Silverstone equipped with the roughly $30k factory-HGTE (Handling Gran Turismo Evoluzione) Package and 6,500 miles closed at $403,200*, while a 4,700-mile 2009 car reached $385,350*, leaving only $17,850, or 4.6 percent, between them. The latter combines low mileage with Giallo Modena, an uncommon color on the 599 (~65-70 units of ~3,600 produced worldwide). For some context, the 599 GTB F1 started at $260,000 when new, and these latest results sit approximately 48 percent and 55 percent above the car's original base MSRP in nominal terms.
The three 458s produced a much wider spread, led by an extensively optioned 2013 Spider at $307,650*, against $253,575* and $249,375* for a Nero Daytona and Rosso Corsa Italias coupes. That puts the Spider roughly 21 percent above the stronger coupe result. Body style clearly matters, but specification, mileage, and condition complicate the comparison, particularly because the Rosso Corsa coupe showed 27,274 miles and carried Novitec lowering springs and an aftermarket exhaust. The 458 Series is also the last naturally aspirated mid-engine V8 Ferrari. A 2023 Roma completed the collection at $174,825*, giving the six-car consignment a remarkably broad cross-section of modern Ferrari values.
Outside Maranello, a 3,797-mile Sarthe Grey 720S Le Mans Edition closed at $305,550*, with only 50 built globally and 19 allocated stateside. The Le Mans Edition carries a specification unavailable on standard 720S production cars and represents one of the more collectible variants within the 720S range. Enthusiast-focused favorites completed the week: with a 2009 Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR, one of 32 in its configuration, reaching $123,375*; while a supercharged six-speed 2002 E46 M3 Touring conversion brought $83,475*; and the Backdraft Cobra 15th Anniversary Edition, one of 15, closed at $73,500*.

12 cars remain open for bidding, led by the Rosso F1 2017 Ferrari F12tdf, currently at $2,001,000 with four days remaining. One of 799 produced globally, this particular example carries more than $180,000 in factory options, pushing its original sticker price to nearly $673,000. Rosso F1 paint and an extensive carbon-fiber specification distinguish this V12 further within an already limited production run. With bidding still open, this is comfortably the highest-value car in the current docket.
Moving onto mid-engine exotics, the 1,600-mile McLaren 750S is another heavily specified supercar, finished in MSO Bespoke Velocity Fade with carbon-fiber bucket seats, paint-matched carbon details, front lift, and full-body paint protection film, currently bid to $354,000 with two days to go.
A Giallo Modena 2007 F430 Spider is at $126,000 with two days remaining, and a one-of-50 Gallardo LP 560-4 Ad Personam Red Edition at $75,999 with four days remaining, add two naturally aspirated Italian choices to the docket. The Gallardo combines Nero Noctis paint with Rosso Mars accents, while its clear engine cover and contrasting interior make this a particularly distinctive factory specification.
Three Porsches are currently active, led by a 997 2007 911 GT3 RS previously owned by Bruce Canepa, showing 17,300 miles and currently bid to $218,000 with four days remaining. A Jet Black 991 2018 911 Carrera 4S with Premium and Sport Chrono Package is at $85,500 with two days to go, while a 991 2016 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet in Garnet Red leather is bid to $65,500 with two days left.
Onto classics spanning three decades; a numbers-matching European market 1973 BMW 3.0 CSi is at $ 300,000 with two days remaining. A 1987 Buick GNX, number 340 of 547 produced, with just 116 miles, is at $154,000 with nine days left. A rare two-door short-wheelbase Nautical Blue Metallic 1994 Mercedes-Benz G350TD Cabriolet, fully restored, is at $50,500 with four days remaining.
Two cars we spotlighted earlier this week are entering their final 48 hours. A 362-mile C6 Corvette ZR1 bid to $109,500, and a period-modified Mercedes-Benz 300 TE 3.4 AMG, high-performance wagon, give collectors and enthusiasts two very different expressions of increasingly desirable analog performance.
