Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the electrifying highlights of the Mecum Dallas Auction, where automotive dreams turn into reality. This is the place where car enthusiasts gather to witness the spectacle of some truly remarkable machines. And let me tell you, there are some absolute gems up for grabs today.
First up, we have the star of the show, the Z06 3lz, a Corvette that exudes power and performance. With its 670 horsepower 5.5 liter flat plane crank V8 engine, this beast is ready to unleash its adrenaline-fueled fury on the open road. And let's not forget about the 68 GT500, a rare gem with only 402 ever built. This beauty is equipped with a 428 cubic inch police interceptor V8 and Factory air conditioner, making it a true collector's item.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. Feast your eyes on the 2023 Anniversary Corvette Z06, a brand new car with only seven miles on the clock. With its special color, white pearl metallic, and the powerful 5.5 liter flat plane crankshaft V8 engine, this car is destined to become a future collectible. And if you're a Porsche fan, you'll be thrilled to see the 2019 Porsche 911 GT3 RS, a world-class performance car with under a thousand miles on it. It's a testament to the Porsche engineering prowess that these cars are kept in such pristine condition.
But the real showstopper is the 1965 GT350, the car that started the legendary legacy of Carol Shelby and the Ford Mustang. This K code Mustang has been transformed by Shelby America into a roaring beast, with its 306 horsepower and four-speed transmission. It's a raw and unapologetic machine, embodying the true spirit of American muscle.
And let's not forget the two 2005 Ford GTs, each with its own unique features and charm. These cars are a tribute to the golden age of American automotive engineering, with their timeless design and powerful drivetrains. And finally, we have the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS, a track monster with 700 horsepower and a dual clutch automatic transmission. This car is a true testament to Porsche's commitment to performance and precision.
