In this exhilarating episode from MotorTrend Channel, we dive headfirst into the heart of automotive extravagance at MAA Monteray. The stage is set at the Hyatt Regency Monteray Hotel and Spa, where a jaw-dropping lineup awaits. Picture this: a 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra Roadster CSX 3000 Series, painted in a mesmerizing acrylic green, commands a staggering bid of $1.1 million. This isn't just any car; it's a piece of history, with only 56 ever produced in this striking color.
Moving on to a 1957 300 SL Roadster, boasting a vibrant red interior and a price tag of 1.125 million. The auction heats up with a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster, a rare gem among luxury cars, fetching a cool 1.25 million. But the real showstopper emerges in the form of a Porsche Carrera GT from 2005, a true testament to Porsche's racing legacy, selling for 1,575,000. And just when you think you've seen it all, a 1967 Corvette L88 steals the spotlight, the very first of its kind, going under the hammer for a whopping 2.1 million.
As the bidding frenzy continues, a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTS makes its grand entrance, captivating enthusiasts with its timeless design and a final bid of 2.3 million. The crowd is electrified as a 2003 Ferrari Enzo revs onto the scene, boasting 651 horsepower and a price tag of 2.6 million. But the true pièce de résistance arrives in the form of a 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB4, a certified classic that commands a staggering 2.8 million. And just when you think things couldn't get any wilder, a 1969 Dodge Hemi Daytona roars onto the stage, fetching over 3 million and leaving the audience in awe. And finally, the climax of the event unfolds with the arrival of a 1969 Ford GT40, one of only 10 Factory lightweights, selling for a record-breaking 7 million, cementing its status as the most expensive car ever sold at MAA Monteray.
