Bugatti Residences by Binghatti Sells Record-Breaking Pen...

The automotive world no longer stops at the driver’s seat, continuing to spill into industries far beyond the road. From fashion collaborations to full-scale luxury residences, brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, Pagani Automobili, and Porsche have extended their design language and lifestyle ethos straight into the living room. But Bugatti is marking a serious step in automotive-inspired living with its first-ever residence collaboration with Bingahtti, bringing hypercar-inspired styling to the heart of Dubai’s highly desirable Business Bay. As it continues its construction of 171 Riviera Mansions and 11 Sky Mansion Penthouses, Bugatti Residences marked another monumental milestone for the record-breaking sale of the Middle East’s most expensive penthouse at $150 million (AED 550 million). The jaw-dropping sales figure was secured by Chief Sales Officer Abdullah Binghatti and celebrates the highest price per square foot ever recorded in Business Bay. Bugatti Residences promises to provide an ultra-luxury living experience unlike any other, showcasing luxury amenities such as a Riviera-inspired beach, private pool, jacuzzi spa, fitness club, chef’s table, private valet, private members club, and two garage-to-penthouse car lifts. The location and offerings sound so incredible that even Brazilian soccer star Neymar Jr. has already secured his very own Sky Mansion Penthouse for a whopping $54.5 million. At the pinnacle, the Sky Mansion Penthouses provide an exclusive haven inside the urban landscape. Unique to these penthouses are nine private car lifts, a feature that allows residents the luxury of parking their Bugatti hypercars right in their home, elevating the concept of a modern retreat to exceptional heights. As spaces continue to sell for astronomical numbers, you have to wonder who will be calling Bugatti Residences by Binghatti home.

230-Mile 2023 Ferrari Daytona SP3 For Sale at Carrio Moto...

Not only is this the first SP3 in Carrio's inventory, but it is also the first one to be offered for sale by a dealer in the U.S. with no restrictions. Many people view Ferrari as a brand that manufactures some of the most cutting-edge supercars on the road today. But spend a little time with the marque, and it becomes clear that Ferrari is chasing the future while constantly pulling from its own past. The brand’s history is a living design studio that keeps influencing what comes next. The Icona Series defines that approach, where every limited production model pays homage to a specific moment or car from Ferrari’s racing heritage, spanning from the Monza SP1 and SP2 and its influence from 1950s sports prototypes to the Daytona SP3 and its ties to the legends of the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona. These modern marvels remain at the upper echelon of an already-saturated collector base, making examples like the Ferrari Daytona SP3 almost impossible to own without a direct invitation from the brand. The team at Carrio Motor Cars is pleased to present the opportunity to skip the waitlist with the addition of this incredible 2023 Ferrari Daytona SP3 to its inventory of exotics for sale on duPont REGISTRY. Limited to only 599 (+1 for charity), this Daytona SP3 hails from Maranello showcasing a pristine Bianco Italia finish optioned with a single white racing stripe that runs down the center of the car. Exposed gloss carbon highlights aero-focused areas on the Daytona SP3, purposely engineered to channel air for the sake of both cooling and downforce at high speeds. Hand-painted Scuderia Shields add yet another historic touch to the hypercar, a process that takes Ferrari’s artisans more than 16 hours to perfect. Rounding off this dream spec is a set of two-tone, five-spoke wheels and contrasting yellow carbon ceramic brake calipers. While its open-top configuration offers a sneak peek at what’s inside, opening the Daytona SP3’s butterfly doors reveals a cockpit that looks just as inviting for casual street drives as it does being a purpose-built track monster. Rosso Ferrari leather covers almost every inch of the interior, with the one-piece carbon bucket seats pulling inspiration from the square-stitched seat inserts on 1960s endurance race cars. Following the lineage of the greats that came before it, including the Enzo and LaFerrari, the sole focus remains on the driver and the driver's experience, rather than on the technology and entertainment. Simple and almost inviting in some manner, the Ferrari Daytona SP3 uses its simplistic manner to disguise its brutal performance capabilities. The Daytona SP3 sticks to Ferrari tradition in the best way possible, pairing a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 with a seven-speed dual-clutch that snaps through gears with almost no hesitation. It’s the brand’s most powerful internal-combustion engine ever, pushing out 829 horsepower and revving to a screaming 9,500 rpm. The numbers are just as wild, with a 0–62 mph in 2.85 seconds and a top speed north of 211 mph View Listing

Paul Walker’s 2 Fast 2 Furious Evo VII Is Now for Sale wi...

From the big screen to your garage space. For a lot of us who grew up obsessed with cars, it’s hard to deny that The Fast & the Furious had something to do with it. The franchise didn’t just give us big-screen action—it introduced an entire generation to a wild mix of cars that became icons in their own right, rolling pieces of entertainment history that still fuel our enthusiasm for all things automotive today. And while we all have a favorite movie in the series, whether it's The Fast & the Furious (2001) that started the legacy or the change in scenery with Tokyo Drift (2006), that nostalgia for the cars and the drivers will forever live on as a link to car culture as a whole. One of those legendary cars shapes itself as a heavily modified Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, driven by the late Paul Walker, who played the role of undercover detective Brian O’Connor. Now recognized as one of the most influential movie cars ever showcased on the big screen, the team at LRA Auto Museum and Sales is proud to present the actual 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII stand-in car featured in 2 Fast 2 Furious as part of its impressive inventory of exotics for sale on duPont REGISTRY. While sourcing and acquiring any Mitsubishi Evo in perfect condition proves to be a near-impossible task in itself, this specific example takes its significance and celebrity status even a step further, as the odometer only reads 932 miles. That’s right, in addition to owning a piece of cinema history, this is also the opportunity to buy a practically brand-new Evolution VII. Its condition remains pristine, as it was used primarily for close-up, detailed shots and was never actually raced in scenes. Legally imported to the U.S. for the movie, which was released at the same time as the 2003 Mitsubishi Evo’s debut in the U.S. market, the car still sports the same vibrant green, blue, and silver movie livery. Under the hood, the Evo VII houses its classic rally-bred 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder, a punchy little engine that delivers quick spool, sharp throttle response, and enough cinematic “go” to match Brian O’Conner’s style. It sends power through a five-speed manual and Mitsubishi’s famed all-wheel-drive system, giving the car that planted feel. Inside, it’s all early-2000s functionality, simple gauges, snug Recaros, and just enough tech to feel modern without losing that raw, analog charm, making it one of the more believable, genuinely enthusiast-friendly cars to ever wear the franchise’s hero colors.

Bell & Ross Is Going Rally Racing with Defender at Dakar ...

Bell & Ross joins Defender Rally at Dakar 2026, bringing its tool-watch mindset to the toughest race on earth. There’s something fitting about Bell & Ross finding its way to the Dakar Rally. The watchmaker has always built watches for people who rely on them rather than admire them from a watch case, and rally racing sits comfortably in that same space. As part of the start of the new year, Bell & Ross will serve as the official timing partner for the Defender Rally as it competes in the World Rally-Raid Championship, beginning with the Dakar event. It’s less about logos on bodywork and more about being present where precision, endurance, and focus are non-negotiable, especially when stages stretch endlessly across the Saudi desert and its demanding terrain. Dakar has a way of exposing weak links, mechanical or human, and that’s largely why it makes sense for Bell & Ross to be involved. Timing in rallies is functional, constant, and unforgiving. For drivers in the Defender Dakar D7X-R, knowing exactly where they stand at any given moment can shape decisions hours down the road. Bell & Ross has spent decades building its reputation around legibility and reliability in extreme conditions, first in aviation and later underwater, and now on track. Dakar is another chapter in that story rather than a departure from it. The watch heading into the dunes with Defender Rally is the BR-X3 Black Titanium, a creation that leans heavily into its role as an instrument tool rather than a mere accessory. Lightweight grade 2 titanium, a COSC-certified movement, and a dial designed for easy readability all point toward usability over luxury. Visually, the watch’s square case and round dial echo the Defender’s own design language, clean, purposeful, and engineered with intent. In a race defined by long days, physical strain, and mechanical stress, the partnership is more about showing up with the right tools and letting the terrain speak for itself.

World Class Corvette Restomod Being Auctioned

Passionate gearhead David Freeman, is offering something rarely seen in the collector car world: a deeply personal build with a purpose that extends far beyond the garage. His one-of-one 1969 Chevrolet Corvette restomod will cross the block at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction on January 16, 2026, with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Curing Kids Cancer, a nonprofit dedicated to accelerating pediatric cancer research. The Corvette itself represents a five-year vision brought carefully to life. Freeman set out to create a refined interpretation of a 1969 Corvette—one that retained the soul and silhouette of the original while delivering modern supercar-level performance, reliability, and build quality. Subtle design details distinguish it from typical restomods, with every modification executed to enhance the car without overwhelming its heritage. Under the hood sits a GM LT4 engine topped with a Magnuson 2650 supercharger, producing 589 horsepower and 670 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheels, all while fitting beneath the stock hood to preserve the car’s original appearance. What began as a lifelong passion project took on a new meaning as the build reached completion. Around the same time the car was finished, Freeman was navigating his own prostate cancer diagnosis—a moment that reshaped his perspective. Through his daughter, a pediatric oncology nurse, David gained firsthand insight into how critically underfunded childhood cancer research remains. The contrast between cutting-edge automotive engineering and the limited resources available to children battling cancer was impossible to ignore. The Corvette, once intended as a car to keep forever, suddenly felt capable of serving a greater purpose. Key Details: GM LT4 engine with Magnuson 2650 supercharger 589 HP/670 lbs-ft of torque at the rear wheels Bowler 4L80E automatic transmission rated to 800 HP Streetshop C7 chassis with QA-1 double adjustable coilovers Brembo GT brakes (15”) Ferrari Cuoio full leather interior with Mercedes velour carpet Custom designed and fabricated carbon fiber interior trim and rocker trim Custom Forgeline wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires That realization led Freeman to search for a way the car could make a tangible difference. Conversations with Mecum Auctions revealed a long-standing partnership with Curing Kids Cancer, prompting Freeman to connect directly with the organization’s founder, Grainne Owen. Her story—turning the loss of her son Killian to leukemia into a mission to fund lifesaving research—cemented the decision. Curing Kids Cancer directs every dollar raised toward accelerating treatments from the laboratory to the clinic, giving children access to better outcomes sooner. With that clarity, David Freeman committed to auctioning the Corvette in its entirety for charity. If the sale of this car can help advance research and offer even one child more time with their family, the decision to part with it becomes an easy one. What remains is not just a remarkable car, but a powerful reminder that passion projects can carry meaning far beyond horsepower figures and auction results. View Auction Listing

Volkswagen GTI at 50: How the Original Hot Hatch Changed ...

As the Golf GTI turns 50, Volkswagen celebrates the car that democratized performance and now looks ahead to an electric GTI future. Fifty years ago, Volkswagen quietly lit a fuse that would burn through the automotive world for decades. In 1976, the Golf GTI arrived without supercar theatrics or luxury-car pretension, but it rewrote the rulebook for what a performance car could be. As the Golf GTI celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2026, it stands as both the world's most successful compact sports car, with more than 2.5 million sold, and a cultural icon that blurred the line between everyday usability and actual driving excitement. Few cars can claim that kind of influence, and fewer still remain relevant half a century later. The original Golf GTI was never meant to be a revolution. Volkswagen planned to build just 5,000 examples, almost as a skunkworks experiment. Instead, dealers sold ten times that number in its first year alone. With 110 horsepower, a curb weight that favored agility over excess, and details like the red grille trim and golf-ball shift knob, the Mk1 GTI was purpose-built for people who actually loved driving. It could carve up a mountain road on Saturday, haul groceries on Sunday, and do it all while returning respectable fuel economy. At 13,850 Deutschmarks ($6,500) in Germany, it undercut many sports cars it could outpace, leading journalists to call it the "democratization of the sports car." That core GTI DNA, lightweight thinking, front-wheel-drive balance, honest performance, has carried through every generation since. The formula has evolved, but the intent never wavered. Fast-forward to 2026 and Volkswagen marks the milestone with the Golf GTI EDITION 50, the most powerful production GTI ever built. With 325 horsepower, it's a clear reminder that the GTI badge still means something in a world crowded with performance trims and inflated horsepower numbers. When enthusiasts say "GTI," they still mean Volkswagen. But the 50th anniversary isn't just about looking back. It's also about a pivot forward. In 2026, Volkswagen will introduce the all-electric ID. Polo GTI, bringing the GTI philosophy into the EV era for the first time. Instant torque and electric drive may change the mechanics, but the goal remains familiar, accessible performance with everyday usability. Fittingly, the anniversary year will also see the GTI celebrated at events like Rétromobile in Paris and the Bremen Classic Motorshow, kicking off the European classic season. Half a century on, the Golf GTI is still setting the pace. All Volkswagen Inventory Source: Volkswagen

The HondaJet APMG S

Honda has always had a knack for carving out serious market share anywhere combustion engines roam, whether that’s two wheels, four wheels, or, eventually, the sky. From motorcycles and sports cars to lawn equipment and jets, the common thread has been smart engineering and long-term thinking. Nearly a decade after the first HondaJet deliveries, that mindset is still very much alive. The newly announced HondaJet APMG S upgrade package aims to bring early HondaJet Classic and APMG aircraft up to speed. The original HondaJet made waves by doing things differently. Over-the-wing engine mounts, a surprisingly roomy cabin for its class, and a focus on efficiency helped it stand out in the very light jet segment. As newer variants like the HondaJet Elite S arrived, earlier aircraft naturally began to feel a generation behind. The APMG S program closes that gap. Offered through Honda Aircraft Company’s Greensboro Service Center and its global network of 21 Authorized Service Centers, the upgrade gives existing owners access to tech improvements without the commitment or cost of stepping into a brand-new jet. Honda has even applied the APMG S upgrades to several pre-owned aircraft, incorporating them into its own resale program. The heart of the APMG S upgrade lies in avionics and performance that actually show up in everyday operations. Updated avionics software and hardware bring faster processing speeds and future-proof the cockpit for additional upgrades down the line. Key systems introduced on later models, such as the Advanced Steering Augmentation System, are now being integrated into the legacy fleet, enhancing handling feel and expanding crosswind capability. There’s also a practical 300-pound bump in maximum takeoff weight, which translates directly to more flexibility when it comes to passengers, baggage, or fuel. Pilots will likely appreciate the quieter improvements just as much. Graphical Weight and Balance tools simplify preflight planning, allowing crews to quickly visualize loading and fuel scenarios rather than relying on spreadsheets or guesswork. These are the kinds of updates that don’t grab headlines but make ownership easier and flying more predictable. Alongside the APMG S modifications, Honda is offering interior refurbishment options at its Greensboro facility, allowing owners to bundle work and minimize downtime. With FAA certification already secured for U.S.-registered aircraft and international approvals expected to follow, the program arrives at a fitting moment as the HondaJet approaches its tenth anniversary. Instead of chasing hype, Honda Aircraft Company is making sure yesterday’s innovations still feel relevant tomorrow. Source: HondaJet

How to Buy: Porsche's Exclusive Carrera GT Collection Des...

One of Porsche's most iconic creations celebrates a milestone. While we can all certainly agree that the Porsche Carrera GT is currently viewed as a legendary supercar among collectors and enthusiasts, now trading well into the +$2 million range, it sort of became a Cinderella story for Stuttgart's V10 masterpiece. What may have been considered ahead of its time, evolving into a collector classic for drivers yearning for the ultimate analog driving experience, the Carrera GT continued to age like a fine wine as it cemented itself in the automotive world. Now, 25 years after its concept debut in September 2000, the Carrera GT is getting its much-deserved recognition as Porsche celebrates its 25th Anniversary with an exclusive lifestyle collection designed by French collector, streetwear designer, and most importantly, Porsche purist, Arthur Kar. To commemorate the Anniversary, Kar dove into the archives of Porsche and PUMA Motorsports to design and curate a capsule collection honoring the uprise of the Carrera GT and its continuous influence on the future of supercars. The unisex collection features head-to-toe styles, including racing zip-up jackets, t-shirts, and accessories, all sporting embroidered Carrera GT badging and silhouettes. And while we're still waiting until launch day to get the full scope of the entire lineup, the highlight of the collection has to be the special edition PUMA Motorsports Speedcat Pro sneakers. Scripted with Porsche and Carrera GT touches that make them instantly collectible, there's no better way to celebrate a car than with one of the most popular driving shoes on the planet. As we wait patiently for the anticipated launch on Thursday, September 25th at 11:00 am EST, the Carrera GT 25th Anniversary Collection will be a quick sellout, so buyers had better be ready. Check back into duPont REGISTRY tomorrow morning for the 'How to Buy' info on Arthur Kars' Porsche Carrera GT capsule collection.

Shop Montblanc's Meisterstück Great Masters Ferrari Tail...

Montblanc and Ferrari celebrate shared craftsmanship with the new Meisterstück. This isn't the first time Montblanc and Ferrari have crossed paths. Over the years, both ultra-luxury worlds have intersected through a shared passion for design, precision, and craftsmanship that outlives trends. Each understands the beauty of control, whether it be the steady hand that guides a pen or the one that keeps a V12 balanced at full throttle. Their latest collaboration, the Montblanc Meisterstück Great Masters Ferrari Tailor Made Classica, feels like another chapter in a story built on mutual respect for each other's craft. It's about two artisans, from different industries, recognizing something familiar in each other's pursuit of perfection. The Classica collection looks to Ferrari's Grand Touring cars of the 1950s and 1960s for inspiration, when long stretches of road met hand-shaped metal and wood. Those details, like the feeling of lacquered steering wheels and the refinement of understated design, come through beautifully into the Meisterstück's lineup. The body, finished in lacquered wood, shows off the tactile satisfaction of vintage craftsmanship, while the Montblanc emblem in giallo Modena pays homage to Ferrari's roots. The Prancing Horse, discreetly placed, ties it all together without overwhelming the iconic design. The fountain pen requires patience, each stroke deliberate, mirroring the rhythm of an open road drive. The ballpoint, though more suited for daily use, maintains the same sense of luxury. In a time when most collaborations chase trends, this one leans into legacy. It reminds us that craftsmanship, whether expressed through steel and pistons or ink and lacquer, is timeless, and that some partnerships, like this one between Montblanc and Ferrari, don't need to be reinvented. They just need to continue.

How Friendship Fueled These Two Bespoke Tailor Made Ferra...

Two friends living their best lives! Some friendships are built on shared jokes or late-night talks, but for a few, the bond is forged in horsepower and high revs. For Curt Garner and Yahn Bernier, their connection has always revolved around a love for all things automotive, and more specifically, factory Ferrari race cars and ultra-exclusive production models. Their passion for speed and Italian craftsmanship recently caught the attention of Ferrari’s Tailor Made program, turning that dream into a shared reality of owning bespoke Daytona SP3 specs. The two met about a decade ago at Ferrari of Seattle, and what started as casual car talk quickly evolved into a decade-long friendship. Business successes, Garner in the food industry and Bernier in gaming software, both have been given the opportunity to pursue their four-wheel dreams, from road cars to Ferrari Challenge race cars, pushing the limits on track and forging connections as much about trust and shared experiences as horsepower. That connection reached its apex in 2022, when the friends, along with their families, traveled to Ferrari’s Tailor Made offices on Park Avenue in New York to configure custom Daytona SP3s. Tailor Made, Ferrari’s bespoke program, pairs clients with experts who guide the creation of each car, guaranteeing every choice, from exterior shades to interior stitching, reflects a blend of personal taste and Ferrari’s relentless design DNA. Bernier’s wife and daughter chose a striking Glossy Sanusilver for his SP3, with subtle Rosso F1 2004 accents and red technical-fabric seats evoking the legendary 250 GTO 4153GT. Garner and his wife went bolder with Blu Elettrico, complemented by Alluminio Lucido and Rosso Fiorano accents, which visually connected to Garner’s Monza SP2. What might have been a transactional process instead became an immersive, creative configuration experience, concluded by a private dinner with family, Ferrari representatives, and top Italian wines. Already, both friends have been putting miles on their bespoke SP3s, combining everyday drives with track and car show appearances. Bernier occasionally drives to work or events, while Garner plans a summer road trip to Pebble Beach with his wife. Beyond the cars themselves, it’s the shared journey, the design discussions, and the laughter along the way that define their story. As Garner puts it, “I will absolutely do this all over again, and I hope to do it with Yahn.” Bernier nods with certainty; it’s less hope than promise, a reminder that, for these two friends, the ultimate supercar isn’t just about speed, but the road you take together.

274-Mile 2025 Ferrari 12Cilindri For Sale

Grab the keys to Ferrari's latest and greatest supercar! While most Ferraris have historically been recognized for their mid-engine configurations, Enzo Ferrari’s engineering legacy began at the front of the car, fitting his pioneering supercars with massive, naturally aspirated V12s. And even with the evolution of modern mid-engine displacement, as well as the addition of performance-focused hybrid, battery-driven motors, the Maranello manufacturer continues to allocate a portion of its supercar and hypercar lineup to modern, front-engine marvels. The all-new 12Cilindri represents that continuation, inspired by Ferrari’s Grand Tourers of the 1950s and ‘60s, and now taking shape as the next must-have Italian supercar among passionate collectors and enthusiasts. Offering the opportunity to skip the production wait for your very own example, the team at Marshall Goldman is pleased to showcase this 2025 Ferrari 12Cilindri as part of its impressive inventory of exotics for sale on duPont REGISTRY. Derived from the historic color palette of the brand, this Ferrari 12Cilindri comes finished in a two-tone Rosso Mugello and Nero paint shade that accentuates the car’s low-slung, elongated body styling. The build also comes optioned with hand-painted Scuderia Ferrari shields, satin finished wheels, black ceramic exhaust tips, and a set of Giallo Modena carbon ceramic brakes. Its rear hatch and ample space make the 12Cilindri the perfect modern GT for anyone who craves the spirited thrill of a Ferrari on a daily basis. Inside, the cabin of this 12Cilindri keeps things calm, cool, collected, and unmistakibly Ferrari, with an interior that beautifully balances between performance and comfort. Cuoio leather and Alacantara cover every inch of the interior, tying together the traditional configuration. Two-piece sports seats with embroidered prancing horses, modern tech and entertainment, and plenty of power under the hood make for the daily commuter or weekend track star. The Ferrari 12Cilindri engine is a naturally aspirated V12 that combines smooth, high-revving character with serious torque. Mated to a crisp-shifting dual-clutch, this 12-cylinder powerhouse delivers an exhaust soundtrack that’s as engaging. On the road or track, you’re looking at horsepower figures that typically range well into the high 600s and beyond, with torque that keeps the car pulling hard through the rev range. Acceleration feels urgent and linear, with 0–60 mph often in the low 3-second zone, while the engine’s ability to climb past 8,000 rpm makes every twist and straight a chance to rev out and revel in raw, analog Ferrari energy.

Ultra-RARE 2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante Essenza SCV1...

A chance to own the exclusive Lamborghini Urus you've probably never knew about! The Urus Performante Essenza SCV12 Edition was never meant to be a widely advertised special edition, and that’s what makes it so interesting. Lamborghini offered it quietly to a very small circle of clients who were already deep into one of the brand’s most extreme projects, the track-only Essenza SCV12. While those owners waited for their race cars to be built, this version of the Urus Performante was created as a kind of in-between, a road-legal SUV that shared the look and attitude of a Lamborghini that would never see public roads. It was all about giving Essenza owners something familiar to drive every day, with design cues and details that tied directly back to their cars still under production. Today, the team at Fort Lauderdale Collection South is pleased to present this 2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante Essenza SCV12 Edition as part of its inventory of exotics for sale on duPont REGISTRY. Limited to only 40 examples to match and fulfill the orders of Essenza SCV12s, this Nero Helene Metallic Urus features the added bonus of being equipped with an exposed carbon fiber 1016 Industries widebody kit that completely transforms its look. Custom black forged 24-inch MV wheels further enhance its already aggressive styling while remaining somewhat OEM plus as a subtle flex. Inside the spacious cabin of the Urus is where you’ll find hidden easter eggs that tie the Super-SUV to its track-only $2.5 million counterpart. The stealthy styling continues with a Nero Ade interior that combines rich Italian leather and Alcantara. The carbon dashboard fascia features special Essenza SCV12 logos, which also welcome the driver and passengers on the door sills when stepping in. Whether it's the limitless use of carbon fiber, the four-seat bucket seat configuration, or the interior touches that connect it to the track, it's safe to say that Lamborghini engineered the Urus Performante Essenza SCV12 Edition with hypercar inspiration in mind. Under the hood, the Urus Performante Essenza SCV12 Edition sticks with the same twin-turbo V8 that’s already made the Urus Performante one of the quickest SUVs on the planet, just dialed up with a bit more. You’re still looking at blistering acceleration, rapid shifts, and a sense of shove that feels like it’s borrowed straight from the brand’s more hardcore creations, only packaged in this tall-riding, everyday-usable chassis.

Dealer Spotlight: 10 Must-See Collector Classics For Sale...

Any passionate car enthusiast or collector who’s spent time shopping for classic cars knows the common frustration: plenty of listings, plenty of photos, but very little sense of what’s really behind them. That’s part of what makes Volo Museum Auto Sales an interesting dealer to come across on duPont REGISTRY. Based in Illinois, Volo operates a large, walkable facility where cars are actually meant to be seen in person, not just scrolled past. The emphasis there is on taking your time, looking over a car, sitting in it, even driving it before deciding whether it’s the right fit. Its carefully curated inventory of classics mirrors that mindset. Volo doesn’t chase every trend or lean solely on headline-grabbing examples. Cars are chosen by overall quality, condition, and long-term appeal, whether that means vintage American muscle, pre-war classics, or well-kept collector-era cars. One thing that sets them apart is how cars are handled before they’re offered for sale. Rather than selling strictly as-is, Volo has an in-house mechanical team that addresses smaller issues and general prep work so cars present honestly and cleanly. Another thing worth noting is how transparent the process is on both sides of a transaction. For buyers, Volo offers help with financing, shipping, insurance, and third-party inspections, which can make purchasing from out of state far less intimidating. For sellers, they provide alternatives to traditional auctions, including direct purchase offers, trade-ins, and consignment options, all without forcing a one-size-fits-all solution. As a family-run business now spanning four generations, Volo has been around long enough to understand that collector cars are much more than just assets. For anyone browsing classic cars on duPont REGISTRY, Volo Museum Auto Sales is a reminder that even in an online marketplace, there’s still value in dealers who focus on presentation, transparency, and letting the cars speak for themselves.

dR LIVE Latest Listings: AMG Extremes, Ferrari Purity, an...

14-day return policy and a 100% sell-through rate. dR LIVE continues to keep things simple and straightforward with curated listings, clear documentation, and enough background to understand what’s actually being offered. This week’s group of closing auctions reflects that approach, with three cars that all aim at performance but come from very different places. There’s a modern AMG built with few compromises, a Ferrari from the tail end of the naturally aspirated era, and an American track-focused Mustang that shows how far factory performance and thoughtful modification can go. The most modern and most extreme of the group is a 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Black Series Project One Edition. The standard GT Black Series was already AMG’s most focused road car, built around a flat-plane-crank twin-turbo V8 and a serious aerodynamic package developed with track use in mind. This example adds the Project One Edition details, a visual and thematic nod to Mercedes-AMG’s Formula One program that was offered to a very small group of buyers. Finished in Obsidian Black, it shows documented ownership history and recent service, and its appeal is less about outright numbers and more about what it represents: the furthest AMG has pushed a front-engine road car. Next is a 2008 Ferrari F430 Scuderia with around 18,000 miles, finished in Rosso Scuderia. The Scuderia has aged into a sweet spot for many Ferrari enthusiasts. It’s lighter and more direct than the standard F430, still naturally aspirated, and tied closely to Ferrari’s Formula One development of the era. This example shows consistent ownership history and a major recent service that addressed key mechanical items, which goes a long way with cars like this. It’s not a museum piece, but it’s clearly been cared for, and that tends to be exactly what people look for in a driver-focused Ferrari. Rounding out the group is a 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R that leans more toward the enthusiast-built side of the spectrum. The GT350R is already known for its high-revving Voodoo V8, manual transmission, and stripped-back approach, and this example takes things further with a VMP supercharger and supporting upgrades. A recent engine replacement and follow-up service help put some context around the modifications, showing that the car’s been sorted rather than simply turned up. Taken together, these three listings feel intentionally varied—different eras, different philosophies, and different ways of chasing the same thing, making them a good snapshot of the kind of cars that tend to surface on dR LIVE.
