In this exhilarating episode of MotorTrend Channel, we dive headfirst into the heart-pounding action at Dana Mecum's 37th Original Spring Classic auction. Picture this: a jaw-dropping lineup featuring a 2005 Ford GT, a 1955 Bel Air dripping in 24 karat gold, and the iconic 1965 GT 350 Shelby Mustang. But hold onto your seats because the real star of the show is the futuristic 2023 Ferrari SF 90 Stradale Coupe, boasting an impressive 986 horsepower hybrid engine. The bidding wars are fierce, with prices soaring from $385,000 to a whopping $1,950,000.

As the auction unfolds, we witness the adrenaline-fueled competition for classic gems like the 1970 LS6 Convertible and the rare 1963 Split Window Coupe Z06. The excitement reaches a fever pitch with the arrival of the 2012 Lexus LFA, a modern classic destined for future collectible status. With only 500 ever made, this beauty commands a staggering $800,000, leaving enthusiasts on the edge of their seats. And just when you think it can't get any better, the sleek 275 GTB Ferrari steals the spotlight, fetching a cool $1.125 million.

But the true pièce de résistance of the evening is none other than the legendary 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra Roadster, a car so rare, so iconic, that it defies all expectations. With its powerful 427 engine and original powertrain, this beauty commands a jaw-dropping $1,950,000, solidifying its status as the crown jewel of the auction. As the gavel falls on this electrifying event, one thing is clear: the MotorTrend Channel has once again delivered an unforgettable spectacle for car enthusiasts around the world.
