McLaren W1 First Drive: Ferocious Hypercar Transcends the Track

You know things are getting serious when McLaren rolls-out the ‘1’ suffix. The origin story is, of course, the very first road car McLaren ever built, the F1. Designed by visionary Formula 1 aerodynamicist and engineer Gordon Murray, it arrived in 1992 and rendered all other supercars obsolete. The tiny, lightweight F1 embraced carbon-fibre material technology, adopted a radical centre seat driving position with two passengers set back and either side and was powered by a 6.1-litre V12 engine from BMW that might as well have been passed down directly from the Gods. Game-changer? That doesn’t even come close to describing its impact, even if at the time sales didn’t come easy… The P1 was very different. Rather than a unique side project from the Formula 1 team, it was instead a statement piece for McLaren Automotive, a new road car division still in its infancy. It arrived in 2013 and was a wild-eyed showstopper. It traded the long-legged gait and supple suspension of the F1 for a weaponized hybrid system capable of delivering 903bhp and huge blue flames from its drainpipe exhaust. In Race mode, it lowered by 2-inches and its massive concave rear wing extended into the sky. The P1 was all about aerodynamic downforce, crazed acceleration and a snorting, angry soundtrack that mixed venomous twin-turbocharged V8 with the manic whirr of electric motors. Not so much a car as a force of nature. And now there’s this: The W1. It’s a true successor to the P1 with a similar brief and, on the face of it, it evolves rather than radically reinvents McLaren’s vision for the ultimate hypercar. This is not a criticism. How could it be when the result is this dramatic and has such staggering, other-worldly potential? The W1 has 1258bhp delivered to the rear wheels. It’s capable of 0-124 mph in 5.8-seconds, the quarter mile in 9.6-seconds at 167 mph and produces 2205lbs of downforce at 174 mph. The active aerodynamics – particularly a rear wing that extends way out beyond the rear of the car – are pure performance art and deliver massive aerodynamic efficiency. The result, aside from looking extremely cool, is that the W1 is McLaren’s fastest road car around a racetrack. Ever. Their benchmark circuit is the breath-taking Handling Track at the Nardo proving ground in southern Italy, where the W1 beats their previous benchmark, the flyweight McLaren Senna, by three seconds per lap. Or “a lifetime” as they call it in racing. Maybe two lifetimes! Core to the W1’s performance is the new ‘Aerocell’ carbon fibre tub. With integrated seats and a raised footwell to allow for inboard pushrod-operated front suspension – which in turn gives air a clean path to the huge underbody diffuser – it’s light, stiff, space efficient and has been instrumental in McLaren realising a full ground-effect concept. Just like last year’s F1 cars, which were the fastest ever made. There is also an active front wing and the aforementioned complex rear wing dubbed ‘Active Long Tail’. All of which is very admirable. But the ‘anhedral’ or gullwing doors and the fantastically shirnked-wrapped feel to the minimalist, highly-focussed interior are a pretty good side effect. The W1 feels special. Those fixed seats are perhaps a shade more upright than expected, and the driving position is less obviously racecar than, for example, the Aston Martin Valhalla or Ferrari F80. However, once you’ve adjusted the pedals (they move on a slider) and the delicate, slim-rimmed and alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, there’s an overwhelming sense of purpose. The cabin is so tightly tailored and imparts a sense of lightness and agility before you so much as start the all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which makes 916bhp all on its own and revs to 9200rpm. Reach up to a roof-mounted control panel to find the starter button. Maybe this fighter plane trope is a little corny, but somehow you feel thrilled rather than manipulated. The W1 has a sense of humour as well as all that motorsport-derived sophistication. There’s a short delay, but when the engine does fire it’s instant – as the high-powered hybrid system negates the need for an old-school starter motor. A sharp flare of revs tells you that this engine is hyper-responsive and angry. On some deep level your brain and body have been sent all the signals required to prepare for something new and intense. Ahead of us, an empty Mugello racetrack, so press and hold the blue button next to the red starter to select Race mode. The centre display graphic shows the W1’s transformation in real time as it lowers by 37mm at the front and 17mm at the rear whilst simultaneously undocking all that active aero goodness. Race mode is not road legal and is geo-locked. You can show your friends and neighbours the aero dance, but it won’t allow you to select a gear to actually drive unless you’re at a circuit. Incidentally, the rocker switches either side of the display binnacle allow further options now: Toggle up the Handling control on the left for Race+ (for F1-spec super smooth tracks) or stick to Race for gnarlier ones. On the right toggle select ‘GP’ for sustained performance over a stint or ‘Sprint’ to unleash all 1258bhp for a time attack. There’s also a DRS and Boost function on the steering wheel. But I guarantee you won’t have the mental capacity to use them… Exit the pitlane, pin the throttle and W1 takes maybe a millisecond or two to gather its might (the gearing stretches to around 60mph in first, nearly 100mph in second, primarily to aid traction), but then lunges at the first turn with incredible ferocity. It instantly feels light, almost like inertia is no longer a thing. McLaren really does prize lightweight engineering, and at 3084lbs (dry) the W1 has a 278lbs advantage over the Ferrari F80. Plus, Ferrari uses figures for cars fitted with every single carbon fibre option. In reality, the gap is probably wider still. The impression of agility and stunning control continues as the track is unravelled at startling pace. The electric motor mounted to the side of the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is good for 342bhp and 324lb ft and it boosts any low rev lethargy the new flat-plane crank V8 might have (spoiler alert: It doesn’t appear to have any), so the W1 just feels massively, almost impossibly powerful at any revs. Even so, there’s real reward for wringing it out to 9200rpm and the power curve feels superheated but organic, too. In Race mode the steering – still hydraulically powered – has less assistance and it is noticeably heavier than other McLarens. However, that resistance is welcome as it gives you something to push against and imparts so much information about the front grip level. New Pirelli Trofeo RS tyres with a bigger front footprint than P1 or Senna really help. The front-end feels incredibly secure and the rear-axle follows with perfectly-aligned precision. The whole car feels super-stiff, completely locked into the surface and inspires confidence, but there’s an inherent agility and adjustability that means you’re quickly confident to push at its limits and really impose yourself on the chassis. It’s such a complex car but the driving experience is intuitive, and the driver feels a key contributor rather than just amazed (or terrified) observer, holding on for dear life. Every dynamic ingredient really is shockingly effective and yet has a subtlety and lightness of touch. From that delicious steering to the incredible brakes, the W1 just feels so mission-focussed, so hooked-up. Only the new 8-speed gearbox is a slightly disappointment. It’s fast and punchy, but after the scintillating energy of the Ferrari F80 ’box it feels competent rather than inspired. Other quibbles – it’s okay to quibble when the starting price is $2.1-million before tax and destination charge. Well, that new twin-turbocharged V8 sounds tightly wound and aggressive but if you have a P1 tucked in the garage you’ll miss the snorting, Darth Vader-style soundscape and all the drama that goes with it. Ferrari does this better, too. The F80 sounds deathly dull from the outside but is a riot of turbochargers, electric motors and all sorts of mechanical fury within the cockpit. Even so, the W1 is wildly entertaining on track, and the rear-drive configuration makes it more of a challenge and more satisfying than the F80 when chasing lap times or just sliding around for fun. In the Ferrari, you must second-guess what the front e-axle might do, whereas in the W1 it’s all on you. There are plenty of tools to help, including the ingenious Variable Drift Control, but somehow the W1 is more heroic. Or at least fools you into feeling more heroic – which is surely the point! On the road? Nimble, loaded with feel and sublime response. The ride is noticeably tougher than, say, a 750S but the control is ramped-up too, and with a bit more speed the whole car finds a delicious rhythm. Sport mode for the drivetrain brings some nice turbo whooshes and chirps, but the noise remains high-quality rather than extreme excitement. It is perhaps the one area the W1 feels just a little too tame. Of course, there’s nothing tame about the raw performance… which is genuinely shocking and literally hurts your neck muscles after a few hours. How McLaren has given the W1 such immense traction through just two driven wheels is beyond me. So, is it worthy of that ‘1’? I think so. Perhaps we won’t be talking about $25-million auction results for the W1 in 30 years from now, as we are for the F1. Perhaps it doesn’t quite have the amazing presence and jaw-dropping star quality of the simply gorgeous P1. But it is such an intense experience and the way it marries stunning track performance with delicate poise and entertainment on normal roads is something akin to magic. Maybe not ‘the one’ but definitely a searing, outrageous addition to McLaren’s fiercest family line. Just 399 W1’s will be built and they’re all sold. I’m not surprised at all.

Legendary Acura NSX Listed on duPont REGISTRY Live for the First Time

A 2002 Acura NSX-T, finished in Silverstone Metallic over black leather and showing just 5,136 miles, is now live on duPont REGISTRY Live, marking the platform's first listing of Honda and Acura's groundbreaking supercar. NSX stands for ‘New Sports eXperimental,’ a name that captures exactly what Honda set out to build: a genuinely usable, everyday supercar rather than a temperamental exotic. Bidding currently sits at $180,000, and the auction has already drawn 536 views and 19 watchers, a strong early signal for a car that occupies a unique position in automotive history. This particular example is part of the first-generation NSX run, which spanned from 1990 until production ended in 2005, with roughly 18,000 units produced worldwide. The car's exterior was designed by Ken Okuyama, working through Pininfarina, the same designer who would later pen the Ferrari Enzo, while Honda Chief Engineer Shigeru Uehara led the engineering program underneath it. The NSX's significance goes well beyond its specifications. When Honda introduced the car in 1990, it set out to prove that a mid-engine supercar could be engineered with the reliability of an everyday Honda, a proposition that seemed almost contradictory to the European exotics it was built to challenge. Central to that achievement was the involvement of late three-time Formula One world-champion Ayrton Senna, who was driving for McLaren Honda in the late 1980s and early ‘90s. Senna tested an early prototype at Suzuka in 1989 and gave Honda's engineers his impressions of the car's chassis. Honda's engineers spent the following months refining the aluminum monocoque before the car reached production, a process widely tied to the handling balance the NSX became known for. The 2002 example seen here represents the facelifted, fixed-headlight version of the NSX, introduced that year in place of the original pop-up units that had defined the supercar since 1990. By 2002, annual production had fallen sharply from the model's early years, when Honda built more than 3,000 units in 1991 alone. For the 2002 model year, Acura produced 246 NSX-Ts for the North American market, with no fixed-roof coupes ordered. Among these, only 39 units were finished in Silverstone Metallic with a black interior, based on official Honda build records. <- Gallery -> That steep drop in volume means clean, well-preserved facelift cars like this one are considerably scarcer than the earliest examples, and they tend to command a premium in today's collector market. The mid-mounted 3.2-liter DOHC 24-valve VTEC V6 grew from the original 3.0-liter unit, specifically to extract more performance from Honda's high-revving, naturally aspirated formula, paired exclusively with a 6-speed manual transaxle in this configuration. Output is rated at 290 horsepower and 224 pound-feet of torque, paired exclusively with a 6-speed manual transaxle in this configuration. Period road tests recorded 0-60 mph in the 5.0 to 5.8 second range and a quarter mile in the low 13-second bracket, while the 2002 facelift's revised aerodynamics raised top speed from 168 mph on earlier cars to 175 mph. Several details on this specific car reflect the NSX-T's design at its most resolved. The integrated rear lip spoiler, body-color removable targa roof panel, NSX-branded gold brake calipers, and 17-inch forged wheels are all consistent with the model's late-production specification, while the cabin's Bose sound system, automatic climate control, and stainless-steel sill plates underline the NSX's original mission as a genuinely usable daily exotic. With just 5,136 original miles, this two-owner example sits firmly in the upper tier of NSX-T condition and presentation. The car is accompanied by two keys and a factory car cover in its NSX-branded storage bag, completing a package aimed squarely at collectors. With 97 bids logged and bidding set to end in two days, this NSX-T is shaping up to be a meaningful data point for where clean, low-mileage examples of Honda's first supercar currently sit in the market.

A Record-Setting Week Closes as a Diverse Docket Builds on duPont REGISTRY Live

Every so often, a single result changes how you read the market. That moment came this past week, for the online automotive marketplace as a 1-of-1 2003 Ferrari Enzo finished in Rosso Dino hammered at $12,399,000 on duPont REGISTRY Live, setting a new all-time online auction record and more than doubling the previous online auction record. While the platform has already seen several seven-figure results since launching in November last year, this is the first time that we have broken into eight figures. With a steady flow of analog-era consignments closing at premiums, the diverse range of automobiles in the current docket, everything from off-roaders to sports cars and exotics, looks equally compelling. Closed Lots: Highlights The 2003 Ferrari Enzo in Rosso Dino, the only example ever finished in that bespoke color, hammered at $12,399,000, with the final figure including the auction's premium settling at $13,018,950, making it the third most expensive Enzo to ever sell at auction, ever, across both in-person and online formats. Produced across just 400 examples and representing the pinnacle of Ferrari's road car hierarchy for its era, a one-off color commission of this magnitude has no meaningful precedent anywhere in the collector car market. The result now represents the highest figure ever hammered for a car sold through an online auction platform, and you can read more about this specific Enzo and get an overview of the Enzo’s recent momentum in our in-depth Market Spotlight. The 2015 McLaren P1 Spider by Lanzante, 2-of-5 converted to open-top specification finished in Gulf racing colors, hammered at $3,300,000. One of the rarest hypercar conversions ever undertaken by an independent specialist, the result confirms the Lanzante Spider as a genuinely distinct collectible separate from the standard production coupe. The 2016 Ferrari F12tdf, 1-of-799 produced and showing 1,255 miles, hammered at $2,771,000. The track-focused variant of the F12 Berlinetta continues to command serious attention from collectors who recognize it as the most driver-oriented naturally aspirated front-engine Ferrari of its generation. Analog-era Ferraris closed out the week with continued strength across multiple price points. A 2008 Ferrari 430 Scuderia with the Carbon Package and 11,575 miles hammered at $676,000, while a 2014 Ferrari 458 Spider finished in Rosso Corsa with a Beige interior crossed the digital block at $415,000, a new world auction record for a standard 458 Spider and well above the previous high of $381,000 set earlier this year. This result is especially notable given that standard 458 Spiders typically trade between $200,000 and $270,000 at auction and rarely breach $300,000, making this a significant outlier even before accounting for the car's mileage and model year. Porsche results spanned several generations of the German marque's most collectible models. The 2003 911 GT2 with the Mezger engine and 20,000 miles hammered at $326,000, and a 2007 911 GT3 with the same Mezger flat six in Carrara White crossed the digital block at $174,497. Two 1996 911 Turbos closed within days of each other, a 993 GT2 Tribute finished in Speed Yellow at $337,000, and an Arena Red example with 43,000 miles at $260,000. A 2022 Lamborghini Huracan EVO RWD crossed the digital block at $265,500 through the platform's dR Drop 3-Hour Flash Sale format. Closing out the week, a custom-built 2007 BMW M6 fitted with a stroker V10 conversion hammered at $34,000, and a 1960 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe with RideTech air suspension closed at $45,000. Upcoming Lots: Highlights <- Gallery -> There are 15 cars in the docket. Porsche continues to be strongly represented this week with eight lots across both air-cooled and water-cooled eras. Highlights include a 2010 Porsche 911 GT3RS with 3,500 miles finished in Grey Black and Guards Red is currently bidding to $435,000 with one day remaining, placing it among the strongest results of the week should bidding hold through closing. A 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 fitted with the Manthey Performance Kit and showing just 684 miles is currently bid to $275,000 with five days remaining. Developed by the team behind Porsche's Nurburgring racing program, the Manthey kit adds a measurable performance dimension that current-generation GT3 collectors increasingly seek. A 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo S finished in Paint to Sample Gulf Blue with the Sport Chrono Package is currently bid to $210,000 with four days remaining. Beyond Stuttgart, a 2025 Maserati GT2 Stradale, one of just 914 produced and showing 1,900 miles, is currently bid to $230,000 with one day remaining. As Maserati's most track-focused road car in over a decade, the GT2 Stradale represents a significant return to form for the Italian marque's performance lineage. A 1988 Ferrari Testarossa finished in a classic Rosso Corsa with a fresh engine-out service is currently bid to $72,920 with four days remaining, offering one of the more accessible entry points into analog Ferrari ownership currently available on the platform. A gated manual 2011 R8 V10 Spyder is currently bid to $32,000 with four days remaining. Further highlights include a platform-first 2002 Acura NSX T finished in Silverstone Metallic with 5,136 miles at $90,500, and a 1978 International Scout II rebuilt as a Super Scout tribute following a full restoration at $10,000, both with five days of bidding remaining.

New Record: 1-of-1 Rosso Dino Ferrari Enzo Closes on duPont REGISTRY Live at $13.01 million

The world’s only Ferrari Enzo finished in Rosso Dino has just hammered on duPont REGISTRY Live at $12,399,000 with no reserve ($13,018,950 including Buyer's Premium), setting a new world record. Eclipsing the previous online auction record of $5.36 million – set by a LaFerrari Aperta on Bring a Trailer in 2022 – this eight-figure result is the most expensive car ever to cross a digital-only auction block. It is a defining moment for the online auction format, signaling that the collector car market's most significant transactions no longer require a physical saleroom to carry weight. As duPont REGISTRY continues its mission to transform how the luxury and exotic automotive sector buys, sells, and engages, this landmark sale proves that clients are fully ready to embrace the shift. Of the 400 examples produced between 2002 and 2004, and one of the 127 units that were delivered to the U.S., chassis ZFFCW56A230134278 is the only one finished in this historically significant shade. Rosso Dino is named after Alfredo 'DINO' Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari's eldest son, who passed away in 1956 at 24 from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The color that honors him first appeared in the 1960s on the Ferrari 250 GTO, spent 7 decades outside the active paint catalog, and returned in 2002 at the request of a single client. That client was Gerald Barnes, a major collector and owner of Ferrari Maserati of Newport Beach. Barnes was a clothing importer whose AUTO collection became well known in Ferrari circles, specifically for its recurring commitment to Rosso Dino across multiple cars. The Enzo was a crown jewel of a collection built around a single color made possible through Ferrari’s Tailor Made program, which made several Enzo colors possible outside the three standard shades: Rosso Corsa, Giallo Modena, and Nero. Ferrari's own factory window sticker, which accompanied the car through its auction on duPont REGISTRY Live, records the exterior as an out-of-range paint color. To really drive the point home about paying attention to factory options during the configuration phase, on this V12 exotic that carried an original sticker price of $662,694, the aforementioned out-of-range paint color that makes this Enzo one-off among all 400 examples ever built, originally cost just $2,364. That figure amounts to less than four-tenths of one percent of the car's original purchase price. It serves as a reminder that on halo cars of this order, the decisions made at the point of configuration can define the car's place in history for decades to come. Barnes made one such decision, and the market has spent over 20 years catching up to it. <- Gallery -> The precedent for unique provenance commanding a premium within this production run is long established. When the Vatican-owned Enzo crossed the block at a charity auction in 2005, it achieved approximately $1 million above prevailing market value, an early signal of how singular stories within this production run can move pricing beyond what the standard market can fully anticipate. duPont REGISTRY has followed this specific chassis (#134278) since 2017, when it was available on our marketplace. That the market has now caught up to what we identified nine years ago speaks volumes about the car's enduring pedigree. The chassis arrived on duPont REGISTRY Live this month, showing just 3,758 miles from new, with a comprehensive major service completed in December 2024. The volume of bidding activity that we witnessed at this price level is itself significant. Over 725 bids, 115+ active watchers, and over 9,500 views with a fierce bidding battle in the final hour. Traditional auction houses handling a lot of this magnitude typically see a handful of paddle raises in the room. Online, the depth of participation across hundreds of bids is visible in a way the saleroom never allows, and the no-reserve decision amplifies everything. At this price point, offering a car without a floor beneath it is an extraordinary act of confidence in both the asset and the platform. The consignor trusted the market completely, and the market responded accordingly. To frame the significance in the broadest possible context: the most expensive car ever sold at auction remains the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, which achieved $143 million at a special on-site RM Sotheby's sale at the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart in 2022. That car is a 1-of-2 1955 racing prototype with a provenance that spans seven decades. This Enzo is a street-legal hypercar from 2003, and it now holds the equivalent record for the online-only auction world. The broader Enzo market context is well established. The car had previously hammered at Mecum Kissimmee in January 2026 for $11,110,000 before coming to market on duPont REGISTRY Live, where it has now closed at $12,399,000 with no reserve. That January result was itself part of a first quarter that saw multiple Enzos cross the block for over $9 million this year, across auction houses, including Mecum Indy, RM Sotheby's Monaco, and Broad Arrow Amelia Island. This result is in line with the current duPont REGISTRY Index (dRi) value of $11,110,000. This landmark result positions duPont REGISTRY Live, which only came online 7 months ago in Mid-November 2025, as a serious competitor to the established physical auction houses for the most coveted consignments in the collector car world, and no online platform has ever closed a car that made a case quite like this one. The Enzo, of course, belongs to the Ferrari Big Six alongside the 288 GTO, F40, F50, the LaFerrari, F80, and shares its platform and drivetrain with the Maserati MC12. Seven-time Formula 1 world champion Michael Schumacher also played a key role during the development testing at Ferrari's Fiorano test track, and the body was styled under Ken Okuyama at Pininfarina. A full market spotlight on the Ferrari Enzo, its 2026 price trajectory, and what this result means for the broader modern Ferrari collector market will follow later this week on duPont REGISTRY.

One Day Remains as 1-of-1 Rosso Dino Ferrari Enzo Chases Eight-Figure Result

A 1-of-1 2003 Ferrari Enzo finished in historically significant Rosso Dino, and closing tomorrow on duPont REGISTRY Live is currently bid to $9,010,000. This not only makes it the first automobile on the cusp of becoming the first eight-figure car to cross the digital auction block since the platform launched in mid-November last year with multiple seven-figure sales to its name, but also the most expensive car to ever cross the auction block, and that too at No Reserve. Chassis ZFFCW56A230134278 is the only Enzo ever delivered in Rosso Dino, a color named for Alfredo "Dino" Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari's eldest son, who passed away at 24 from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The color first appeared in the 1960s on the Ferrari 250 GTO, disappeared from the paint catalog for decades, and returned in 2002 at the request of a single client. <- Gallery -> That client was Gerald Barnes, owner of Ferrari Maserati Southern California, one of the most significant Ferrari dealer-principals in the United States. Barnes specified Rosso Dino at a moment when Ferrari had already signaled the Enzo would be offered exclusively in Rosso Corsa, Giallo, and Nero. The factory reversed that position for a small number of clients willing to request colors outside the standard Enzo catalog, and Barnes made the only request that produced this particular shade. Ferrari's own factory window sticker, which accompanies the car, documents the exterior as an out-of-range paint color. duPont REGISTRY first covered this exact chassis (s/n #134278 ) in 2017, when it was already recognized as one of the most singular Enzos in existence. The V12-powered Enzo occupies a permanent position among the Ferrari Big Five, alongside the 288 GTO, F40, F50, and LaFerrari, and serves as the basis for the Maserati MC12. At Mecum Kissimmee in January 2026, the Enzo market repriced decisively, with four examples clearing eight figures in the first quarter of the year alone. As a one-off commission, this particular chassis has the potential to become the next to break into eight figures this year. Of the 400 Enzos produced and 127 delivered to the United States, not one other carries this specification. The car shows 3,758 miles from new, received a major service in December 2024, and is currently present in Miami. The auction has drawn over 650 bids and 96 active watchers, with expected bidding wars as we enter the final 24 hours of the auction.

Last week, a 1-of-1 2003 Ferrari Enzo finished in Rosso Dino entered the docket. Seven days on and it is currently bid to $9,010,000 with two days of bidding remaining. As the flagship V12 builds towards being one of the most defining results as the first car to potentially break into eight figures on duPont REGISTRY Live, since the platform launched in mid-November last year, the past seven days saw more than a dozen cars cross the digital block, with nine exciting automobiles in the docket for the coming week. Closed Lots: Highlights A 2006 Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster with a factory-gated manual and 8,410 miles was the week's headline closed result, hammering at $855,000, establishing the factory-gated open-top Murcielago as a genuinely significant collectible in the current market. The simultaneously closing 2003 Murcielago coupe, also with a gated manual and documented Nicolas Cage ownership, went under the hammer at $361,000. Analog-era Ferraris, particularly from the 2000s and with V8s, have been on the uptick. A 2004 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale with factory stripe delete hammered at $587,000. The first of three Ferrari 430 Scuderia examples, a 2009 example with 12,600 miles, went under the hammer at $729,000. Six Porsches crossed the digital block this week. Highlights include a 992.1 2024 Porsche 911 S/T with the highly desirable Heritage Design Package, and 305 miles crossed the digital block at $590,000. A Mezger-powered 997.2 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS in White Gold Livery, hammered at $524,000. A 992.1 2025 Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years Edition went under the hammer at $336,000, while the 2025 Porsche 718 Spyder RS with CXX and Weissach options closed at $214,000. Wrapping up out the highlights, a 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren in Crystal Laurite Silver with the Red Silver Arrow interior and turbine style wheels crossed the digital block at $455,000. Produced in limited numbers as a joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and McLaren, the SLR, built at the MTC in Woking, England, remains undervalued compared to its contemporaries. We’ve noticed a steady stream of both coupes and roadsters surface on the platform over the past few months. Open Lots: Highlights <- Gallery -> Hypercars have been a force to be reckoned with over the past month on dR Live, and that trend continues going into week three of June. A 2003 Ferrari Enzo in Rosso Dino, the only example ever produced in that bespoke color, is currently bid to $9,010,000. Produced across 399 examples and representing the peak of Ferrari's road car hierarchy for its era, the one-of-one color commission named in memory of Enzo Ferrari’s eldest son, places this particular Big-Five Ferrari in a category of its own. With just two days left to close, all eyes will be on this V12 exotic with bidding wars set to escalate. Staying with Maranello, a 2016 Ferrari F12tdf, one of 799 produced and showing 1,255 miles, is currently bidding at $1,501,123 with three days remaining. The F12tdf is the track-focused limited-production variant of the F12 Berlinetta, built as the most driver-oriented naturally aspirated front-engine Ferrari of its generation, and low-mileage examples in this specification are among the most actively tracked in the current Ferrari collector market. As for V8 power from the prancing horse, we have the second of the three aforementioned Rosso Corsa 430 Scuderias, a 2008 example currently bid to $433,333, and a 2014 458 Spider also finished in Rosso Corsa, now bid to $302,500. The 2015 McLaren P1 Spider, chassis 2-of-5 converted by Lanzante, finished in Gulf Racing colors, is currently bidding at $1,700,000 with four days remaining. Part of the Holy-Trinity series of hybrid hypercars, this is one of just five converted to open-top specification by Lanzante Motorsport. We have five offerings from Stuttgart. Two air-cooled 993-gen 1996 Porsche 911 Turbos are closing within the next 24 hours: a 43,000-mile Arena Red example with carbon trim at $203,000 and a 911 GT2 Tribute in Speed Yellow at $175,000. Mezger consignments continue to be in conversation. A 997.2 2010 Porsche 911 GT3RS with 3,500 miles in Grey Black and Guards Red sits at $425,000 with eight days remaining, a 2007 911 GT3 finished in Carrera White at $172,997, and the 2003 Porsche 911 GT2, representing peak 996 and 20,000 miles, is at $238,000 with four days left. dR Drop, duPont REGISTRY Live's flash auction series is also starting to pick up momentum.

1-of-1 Ferrari Enzo and McLaren P1 Spider Lead a Hypercar Docket on duPont REGISTRY Live

The week ending June 6th delivered one of the most significant sales on duPont REGISTRY Live. 17 cars dominated by modern exotics and sports cars crossed the digital block over the past seven days, led by a low-mileage Guards Red 918 Spyder, a Holy-Trinity hypercar which hammered at $2,969,000. Looking to the week ahead, two hypercar conignments lead a 16-car docket. Besides a 1-of-1 2003 Ferrari Enzo finished in Rosso Dino, and a 1-of-5 McLaren P1 Spider by Lanzante in iconic Gulf Livery, a celebrity-owned Murcielago closing soon rounds out the lineup. Here are the highlights. Closed Lots: Highlights A 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder with the CXX Sonderwunsch Package and 420 original miles, hammered at $2,969,00. Produced across 918 units worldwide (only 41 in Guards Red), the highest production total among the three Holy Trinity hybrid hypercars, this clean example at sub-500 miles confirms that the ceiling is holding firmly above the $2.9 million mark. Staying with Porsche, a 2019 911 Speedster (991.2) with Heritage Design Package and ~4,000 miles was the session's second-highest individual result at $496,806. The Speedster is among the most consistently valued limited-production 991-generation cars, and the Heritage Design Package commands a documented premium over standard specification examples. Onto GT models and a 2025 Porsche 911 GT3RS (992.1) also finished in Guards Red, with 4,630 miles and equipped with Valvetronic exhaust, hammered at $355,500, confirming current-generation GT3 RS values above $350,000 for low-mileage examples with factory performance options. The June 4 Gulf Orange pairing represents the week's most directionally useful data outside the headline lots. A 2024 Porsche Boxster Spyder RS in PTS Gulf Orange hammered at $197,500, and the 2023 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS with Weissach Package in the same specification cleared at $186,500. Finally, a 2015 911 GT3 (991.1) finished in Martine Blue and with 4,170 miles was part of our three-hour dR Drop flash sale, and it hammered at $169,500. Moving on to a 2021 Ferrari SF90 Stradale with 5,400 miles and equipped with the highly desirable Assetto Fiorano package, hammered at $397,000. The Assetto Fiorano package adds Multimatic dampers, titanium springs, and revised exhaust alongside approximately 66 pounds of weight reduction. Dodge posted two results in close succession on June 5. The 2016 Viper ACR Extreme at 844 miles with the Extreme Aero Pack hammered at $437,000, and the 2017 GTS-R Final Edition, chassis #5 of 100, followed at $427,000. The $10,000 spread between a fully optioned low-mileage example and a numbered limited-edition variant confirms near-parity in the current Viper collector market at equivalent condition. The 2014 Viper GTS, one of 52 produced in Stryker Green, closed at $166,000/ The 2024 Nissan GT-R Skyline Edition (R35), one of 100 produced for the U.S. market, finished in iconic Bayside Blue, closed at $190,500. For context, its original MSRP was $131,090; the result confirms collector demand for final-year production and limited-edition specification. Open Lots: Highlights <- Gallery -> One of the most significant consignments in the platform's history leads the current docket. A 2003 Ferrari Enzo, documented as the only example ever produced in Rosso Dino, a bespoke color never offered in standard production, is currently bid to $6,100,000 with 10 days remaining. Produced across just 399 examples and representing the Italian marque’s Big Five and hailing from the peak of Ferrari's road car hierarchy from the Luca-di-Montezemolo era, when Michael Schumacher and Scuderia Ferrari were a dominant force in Formula 1, this unique color commission on one of the rarest road Ferraris of its generation places this example in a category entirely its own. Alongside the Enzo is the week’s second hypercar, a 2015 McLaren P1 Spider. The Woking-based sports car maker only produced 375 coupes worldwide. This particular example began life as #209 and was originally finished, dubbed ‘Professor’ for its unique Professor 2 Blue color. This car is #2 of just 5 converted to open-top specification by Lanzante Motorsport of the U.K., finished in historic Gulf Livery, is currently bid to $1,025,000 with 12 days remaining. With the platform's own McLaren P1 coupe result serving as a reference point, the Lanzante Spider conversion represents a fundamentally rarer proposition. Beyond the hypercars, much of this week's offerings is centered on analog-era exotics and performance cars from the 2000s. Two Pininfarina-designed V8 Ferraris, both in signature Rossa Corsa, a 2004 360 Challenge Stadale with a factory stripe delete at $288,888, and a 2009 F430 Scuderia with the carbon package, is currently bidding to $100,500. Two gated manual V12-powered Murcielagos are part of the lineup this week. A 2006 Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster with a factory gated manual leads at $456,000 with three days remaining, while the 2003 Murcielago Coupe with documented Nicolas Cage ownership is currently bid to $326,000, also with three days left. Further highlights include a 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997.2) in White Gold Livery at $382,500 with three days remaining, a 2025 Porsche 911 Turbo 50 Years Edition, and a 2024 Porsche 911 S/T with the Heritage Design Package and just 305 miles, both at $300,000. A 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren finished in Crystal Laurite Silver over a Silver Arrow red interior and Turbine-style wheels, the car’s launch-spec, at $291,000, rounds out the lineup.

#2-of-5 McLaren P1 Spider by Lanzante Listed on duPont REGISTRY Live

Following the 1-of-1 Rosso Dino Ferrari Enzo listed earlier this week, a 2015 McLaren P1 Spider by Lanzante, chassis #2 of 5, finished in a historic Gulf racing livery over a white SuperFabric leather interior, is now live on the platform with 2,935 miles on the odometer. It is the second P1 to appear on duPont REGISTRY Live after last month’s headline sale, and joins a growing number of Holy Trinity cars being consigned here. McLaren built exactly 375 P1 coupes and never offered a factory convertible. The coupe's carbon-fiber MonoCage integrated the roof as a structural element, making an open-top conversion a substantial engineering undertaking. Lanzante, the British firm that won the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans with the McLaren F1 GTR and brought the track-only P1 GTR to the road, committed to a maximum of five Spider conversions. The program was led by Paul Howse, the original P1 exterior designer, and unveiled at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed. This particular car has an interesting story even before the conversion. Chassis #209 was delivered new through McLaren Philadelphia in a 1-of-1 MSO shade called "Professor 2 Blue," commissioned by its first owner, a Harvard Business School professor, earning the car the nickname "the Professor" in McLaren circles. It was subsequently sent to Lanzante for the Gulf livery treatment, full cabin retrim in UV-treated white SuperFabric leather with orange piping, and the structural conversion that produced one of only five open-top P1s in existence. <- Gallery -> The 903-horsepower hybrid powertrain, combining a 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 with an AC permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor through a 7-speed dual-clutch transaxle, carries over from the coupe unchanged. The car has clocked less than 200 miles since the conversion. With 375 coupes produced against 499 LaFerraris and 918 Porsche 918 Spyders, the P1 is already the rarest member of the Holy Trinity. Chassis 02/05 narrows that further. The full specification and provenance are detailed in the listing.

1-of-1 Rosso Dino Ferrari Enzo Hits The Digital Block on duPont REGISTRY Live

A 2003 Ferrari Enzo, the only example ever factory-finished in Rosso Dino, is currently live on duPont REGISTRY Live with 3,758 miles on the odometer, marking the first time a Ferrari halo car and the first member of the Ferrari Big Five to ever be listed on our auctions platform. Rosso Dino, as a color, carries immense significance in Ferrari's history, as it is named after Alfredo "Dino" Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari's eldest son, an automotive engineer who passed away at 24 from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Enzo named both the Dino chassis and the color in his memory. The shade originally debuted in the 1960s on the Ferrari 250 GTO before spending decades outside the paint catalog. The color returned in 2002 when a single client requested it for his Enzo, making this car directly responsible for bringing the color back into Ferrari's production history. We, in fact, featured this very car (chassis #134278) back in 2017. Ferrari's own factory window sticker documents it as an "out-of-range paint colour." Of the 127 Enzos delivered to the United States from a worldwide run of 400, this is the only one wearing it. The Enzo itself needs little introduction to serious Ferrari collectors. It arrived in 2002 as Ferrari's flagship for the new millennium, named after the company's founder and developed around technology drawn directly from Scuderia Ferrari's Formula 1 program. Michael Schumacher contributed to development testing at Fiorano, and the body was styled under Ken Okuyama at Pininfarina. Conceived and launched under then-President and CEO Luca di Montezemolo, it belongs to the aforementioned Ferrari Big Five alongside the 288 GTO, F40, F50, and LaFerrari. Another Enzo derivative, the Maserati MC12, which duPont REGISTRY covered in a market spotlight just days ago, shares its carbon-fiber chassis, V12 engine, and transmission with Ferrari’s flagship from the 2000s. The Enzo introduced several road car firsts: a full carbon-fiber monocoque chassis, carbon-ceramic Brembo brakes, and active aerodynamics. Its 6-speed paddle-shift automated manual transmission executed gear changes in 150 milliseconds, faster than any production road car at the time of launch. <- Gallery -> The naturally aspirated F140B 6.0-liter V12 that produces 651 horsepower represents exactly the kind of powerplant collectors are aggressively pursuing as electrification reshapes the industry, driving renewed appetite for naturally aspirated V12s and V8s alike. In the Enzo market, color, provenance, and mileage drive value more directly than almost any other variable. You can view the full breakdown of all the Enzo colors here. A one-of-one factory color specification for an example like this one, showing under 4,000 miles, in a finish with this much history behind it, sits in a category of its own. The full provenance, specification, and latest service history are detailed in the listing.

Mezger Porsches and Classic Metal Close as a Celebrity Murciélago Headlines Upcoming Docket on duPont REGISTRY Live

The final week of May 2026 brought a broad cross-section of collector car categories across the digital block on duPont REGISTRY Live, ranging from European classics and American muscle to collector-grade Porsches and a gated manual Ferrari closing on the platform. With the current docket now featuring a mid-engine exotic previously owned by Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage alongside a low-mileage Porsche 918 Spyder closing in on its final days of bidding, the platform continues to attract consignments that go well beyond standard auction fare. Lots Closed: Highlights The two Porsche 911 GT3 RS examples that featured in last week's upcoming docket both delivered compelling results. The 2010 GT3RS in Carrera White and Guards Red hammered at $405,000. Paired with the uprated naturally aspirated 3.8-liter Mezger flat-six mill and a 6-speed manual transmission, it reflects the continued interest in the gen-2 997 GT3 RS as one of the most driver-focused Porsches of its era. A 2007 GT3 RS dot 1 with the 3.6-liter Mezger unit and 11,600 miles went under the hammer at $280,000. The Mezger flat-six carries particular weight among informed collectors as one of the most celebrated naturally aspirated Porsche engines ever produced. A 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Black Series in AMG Magmabeam, showing just 925 miles, crossed the digital block at $391,500. Measured against the Project One variant that closed at $604,000 on the platform last week, the gap between the two results illustrates precisely how much the one-of-40 Project One specification commands above a standard Black Series. The 1992 Ferrari 512 TR in Argento Metallizzato with a gated manual went under the hammer at $313,000. Set alongside the 1-of-1 Saudi Royal 512 TR Spider that hammered at $650,000 on the platform two weeks prior, the result demonstrates the significant premium that bespoke body configurations and documented provenance command over even well-specified standard examples. The 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera in Nero Noctis crossed the digital block at $182,500. The Superleggera remains one of the most focused Gallardo variants produced, and the result reflects steady collector recognition of its place within the naturally aspirated V10 lineage. The classic segment delivered two noteworthy results. A numbers-matching, restored 1963 Jaguar XKE Series I Coupe hammered at $102,500, and a 1963 Chevrolet Corvette L84 with Rochester fuel injection crossed the digital block at $180,567. Both results confirm that correctly specified, documented examples of American and British classics from this era continue to find engaged collectors on the platform. A 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 3ZR with the ZTK Track Performance Package and just 8,000 miles on the odometer went under the hammer at $130,000, consistent with where well-specified C7 ZR1 examples have been trading as the generation matures into collectible status. Rounding out the week on Saturday, a 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ crossed the digital block at $104,000 via the platform's dR Drop 3-Hour Auction format, a clean result for one of the most capable track-focused Corvettes in the current generation. *** All sale prices referenced in this article reflect hammer price and exclude Buyer's Premium. Upcoming Lots: Highlights <- Gallery -> The Guard’s Red 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder with the lightweight Weissach Package now enters its final two days of bidding at $2,820,000. Having been spotlighted in consecutive reports, this lot moves into its closing window. Collectors tracking it know what is at stake. The standout new entry in the current docket is a 2003 Lamborghini Murcielago with a 6-speed gated manual, consigned with documented ownership by actor Nicolas Cage, currently bid to $288,000 with 10 days remaining. The Murcielago was Lamborghini's first production model under Audi-VW ownership. Powered by a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V12 producing 572 horsepower and paired with an Fabspeed exhaust system, the example seen here features a gated manual transmission that enthusiasts consistently regard as the definitive Murcielago driving experience. Celebrity provenance further adds a layer of narrative that few consignments can match, and 10 days of bidding remaining leaves significant room for the result to develop. A 2019 Porsche 911 Speedster with the Heritage Design Package, showing approximately 4,000 miles, is currently bid to $350,000 with three days remaining. Built across just 1,948 examples worldwide, as a celebration of the air-cooled Porsche lineage and featuring a distinctive twin-hump rear deck, the Speedster Heritage Edition is among the most collectible modern 911 variants produced. Further Porsche representation includes a 2025 911 GT3RS with 4,630 miles at $297,500, a 2023 718 Cayman GT4 RS with the Weissach Package in Paint-to-Sample or PTS Gulf Orange at $120,000, and a 2024 Boxster Spyder RS in PTS Gulf Orange at $88,500. The Viper segment is producing its own price discovery story this week. The 2016 ACR Extreme showing just 844 miles with the Extreme Aero Package leads at $301,000 with five days remaining. The 2014 Dodge Viper GTS, one of just 52 produced in Stryker Green, entered the docket at $2,000 and has already climbed to $102,000 with six days left. The 2017 GTS-R Final Edition, #5 of 100, entered at $1,000 and sits at $75,000. Three Vipers across three tiers of the model's hierarchy, all moving with conviction. Making its debut on the platform this week is a R35 2024 Nissan GT-R Skyline Edition, one of just 100 produced for the U.S. market and finished in Bayside Blue, currently bid to $96,500 with five days remaining. Bayside Blue was originally retired after the R34 Skyline GT-R before returning for select limited editions, making it one of the most historically significant colors in the GT-R lineage. With 2024 marking the final model year of the R35 for the U.S. market, this is among the last opportunities to acquire a new-specification, limited-edition GT-R at any price. The 2021 Ferrari SF90 Stradale with the Assetto Fiorano Package, showing approximately 5,400 miles. The Assetto Fiorano is the track-focused configuration of Ferrari's first series-production plug-in hybrid, adding carbon fiber components, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, and a titanium exhaust. At $278,000 with six days of bidding remaining, it represents a compelling entry point into Ferrari's current performance flagship.
