Auction

To Corvette fans, certain groupings of letters and numbers have a lot of meaning. For late-model cars, Z06, ZR1, and Z51 are important alphanumerics, and for fans of vintage 'Vettes, ZL1, L71, and L88 stir their passions. Later this week, Corvette fans will be able to bid on what may be the...

Despite being considered by many as possibly the greatest supercar of all the time, the F40, Ferrari’s last car signed off by company founder Enzo Ferrari, fails to attract the multimillion-dollar bids at auction typical of other rare Ferraris. That may soon change, however, as values of F40s...

Bugatti’s Royale first introduced in 1927 remains to this day one of the biggest cars ever produced. It measured in at close to 21 feet in length and had a curb weight of 7,000 pounds, with Bugatti envisaging it as a car for royal parades—hence the name—and other similar...

On both the track and auction block, Ferraris are known for incredible performance. And over two dozen examples, spanning much of the storied company's existence, will be up for sale during auction house Mecum’s main event during this month's Monterey Car Week. Ferrari's modern era will be...

An early prototype hinting at a mid-engined Corvette is up for auction.

It’s that time of year again. Time for the EAA AirVenture fly-in aircraft convention which takes place each and every year in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and where the Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F] typically auctions off a one-of-a-kind Mustang to help raise funds for training of the next generation of...

Yes, the Pinnacle Portfolio is the most expensive car collection ever to hit the auction block. But that's an awfully crass way to describe this anthology of automotive excellence. After all, a fleet of gold-plated, ruby-encrusted Dartz Prombrons could have achieved that distinction. And while the...

It was only a month ago that we told you about a 1988 Porsche 959 finished in black that would be going under the hammer at one of the auctions taking place during August’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Now we have word of a red 1987 example, another Komfort model, that will soon be...

Miami Vice was the sexy, violent, cocaine-centric epitome of 1980s television. And while Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas might have played detectives Sonny Crockett and Rico Tubbs, the real stars of the show were the cars and fashions that ushered in a new era of glitzy excess. Initially...

UPDATE: This 1984 Porsche 911 3.2-liter Carrera owned by ex-'Top Gear' host James May was sold during the past weekend’s 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed for a little over £50,000 (approximately $78,225). The final bid was close to double the expected price. As far as Top Gear goes, the...

A trio of Porsche 919 Hybrids will be lining up on the grid in this weekend’s 24 Hours of Le Mans, and during the race you'll be able to bid on a 919 Hybrid of your own. Well, a life-size replica at least. Porsche’s Asia Pacific division will auction off the replica to help raise funds...

The Porsche 959 is a rare beast, especially on these shores, and now one is coming up for sale. Auction house Gooding & Company will be offering this sinister-looking black 1988 ‘Komfort’ model for sale during August’s 2015 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance...

Legendary racer Sir Striling Moss is selling his 1961 Porsche 718 RS-61 later this month at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The car will be auctioned off by the Bonhams and is expected to fetch over $3 million. Moss raced a very similar Porsche RS-61 back in the 1960s and has described it as a...

Back in 2011, Electronic Arts, the publisher of the Need for Speed video game franchise, teamed up with Carroll Shelby and his crew at Shelby American to create a one-off Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake that was to be auctioned off the following year to help raise funds for the Carroll Shelby...

The 1993 Toyota Supra stunt car used during filming for the original Fast and the Furious movie that came out in 2001—and driven by the late Paul Walker—has sold at auction for $185,000. It crossed the block last week at the Mecum Auctions event held in Indianapolis and landed right...

There's always acres of desirable sheet metal on hand in Pebble Beach. And if you've ever wanted to own a one-off Aston Martin or some uber-rare Ferrari and Maserati prototypes—and have pockets as deep as the Mariana Trench—you'll have a chance at the RM Sotheby's auction this August in...

Vintage Ferraris are pretty much untouchable machines in a number of ways. You can't afford them. You won't see one on the road. You better stop dreaming about ever driving one, because that's not going to happen. Well it might happen if you're Chris Harris. Not the "affording" bit, but rather the...

There are certain concept cars that stand out from the rest. You'll remember them long after the idea of such a vehicle has come and gone without ever inching closer towards production. One such vehicle is the Pontiac Banshee. This was going to be the PMD sibling to Chevrolet's Corvette, and it was...

Two rare Ferraris from the estate of a British collector are coming up for auction, and despite each of the cars expected to fetch multimillion-dollar bids all proceeds from the sale will be donated to charity. The Ferraris are a red 250 GT SWB from 1960 and a silver 275 GTB/4 from 1967, and both...

Whether you’re a fan of the movies or not, the Fast and the Furious franchise has become embedded in pop culture and will likely stay there for some time to come. Despite the franchise now spanning no less than seven movies, its popularity has never been greater, with the seventh installment...
