The unique specifications of this\u00a0Speciale\u00a0Aperta is what makes it truly stand out even amongst its peers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The 2015 Ferrari 458<\/a>\u00a0Speciale\u00a0A\u00a0 was designed\u00a0by one of Ferrari\u2019s VIP clients and was delivered with the utmost attention to detail, with the most striking design being the twin silver stripes running down the side of the nose and fading away mid-way through both doors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren made its debut as a concept in 1999. The car, which was called Vision SLR, was heavily influenced by Mercedes\u2019 legendary race car, the 300 SLR<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The 300 SLR was based on the powerful W196 and became top of the class during the 1955 season when it campaigned.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After several decades, Mercedes-Benz again partnered with one of the most successful Formula 1 team, McLaren Automotive, to create a modernized version of the SLR.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This 2009 SLR McLaren Roadster exterior is finished in Crystal\u00a0Galaxit\u00a0Black Metallic finish and matched with anthracite and beige leather interior.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To commemorate its 70th anniversary in 2018, Porsche launched the 991-generation 911 Speedster as the height of desirability in the 911 platform.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In total, only 1,948 units were produced to honor the year that Dr. Porsche<\/a> made the very first two-seater roadster in Austria. The design was\u00a0inspired\u00a0by the 356<\/a>, G-Series, 964, and 997 generation Speedsters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example carries serial number 217 and was delivered new in August 2019 to Luxemburg. It was delivered with the Heritage Design package, arguably the most desirable option for the 991-generation Speedster.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Reminiscent of its rich racing heritage, the Porsche is finished in Silver Metallic paint with a white nose\u00a0and roundel that has racing numbers that is customized to the client (the example was given racing number 66.)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Many other options are also equipped in the car, including the front axle lift, 90-liter fuel tank, LED headlights in black, and PCM with Sport Chrono.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Since the acquisition, the Speedster was only driven for 650km and is presented in stunning condition both inside and out.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The chromed radiator grille and separate fender wings delivers the appearance of a vintage automobile, but\u00a0nothing is antiquated about the engineering or the performance of the Morgan Aero\u00a0SuperSports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

During Morgan’s 100-year celebration in 2010, the Aero Supersports debuted a\u00a0Targa\u00a0top-equipped evolution of the Morgan Aero 8.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Since 1964, when they released the +4+,\u00a0the Aero 8\u00a0was the first all-new Morgan from\u00a0Pickersleigh\u00a0Road. The 2001 Aero 8 was a much-awaited release from\u00a0Morgan\u00a0enthusiasts since for the first time, Morgan has released a car with an all-aluminum chassis. They matched the chassis with a BMW-sourced V-8 engine in hopes that the Aero 8 would help the company stay relevant in the 21st century.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This 2010 Morgan Aero SuperSports, stunningly finished in Yarwood Siren Blue, is complemented with a Blue and Romeo Red-accented leather interior trim and highlights of rich rosewood veneers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The DB5<\/a> is the model that\u00a0reinforced the styling prowess of Aston Martin, but it was the DB6<\/a> that refined performance with beautiful styling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The DB6 had a\u00a0lengthened wheelbase for better interior space and stability, with an\u00a0abrupt\u00a0Kamm\u00a0tail\u00a0to correct the rear lift that was experienced on the earlier model.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Aston Martin design team was also given the chance to change the car\u2019s profile to give it more head room. The options list also\u00a0changed to fit a wider clientele with air conditioning, power-assisted steering, and a three-speed automatic gearbox.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This late production DB6 Mk2 Vantage embodies the peak of classic Aston Martin style. The car is finished in aged blue paint with a tan leather interior that looks gorgeous in its patina<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This 1968 Shelby GT500 KR is finished in Acapulco Blue and one of only 1,053 Fastback examples made for the model year.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example was constructed on July 16, 1968, at Ford\u2019s Metuchen, New Jersey factory. Under the hood is the legendary \u201cCobra Jet\u201d engine with four-speed manual transmission, sending power to a 3.00:1 Traction-Lok rear differential.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In 2013, the example was given a\u00a0thorough\u00a0restoration where the fastback body was stripped and refinished in its factory-correct shade of Acapulco Blue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Specialists at Keith Craft Racing of Arkadelphia, Arkansas also rebuilt and rebalanced the engine to stock specifications.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The undercarriage, suspension, and Traction-Lok rear axle were also attended to, and a new set of reproduction\u00a0Koni\u00a0sport shocks were fitted onto each corner of the example to ensure correct handling characteristics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

From 1967 to 1971\u00a0DeTomaso<\/a>\u00a0produced the\u00a0Mangusta. Although they had a close connection with the Ford Motor Company and easily had access to mass production facilities, only 401 examples were ever produced in Modena<\/a>. This makes the example twice as rare as the Lamborghini Miura.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The car had a top speed of 155mph with coachwork done by the esteemed Bertone and\u00a0later\u00a0by\u00a0Ghia\u2019s\u00a0Giorgetto\u00a0Giugiaro<\/a>, which includes the gullwing engine cover made\u00a0for\u00a0Giotto\u00a0Bizzarrini.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The current owner acquired this 1970\u00a0DeTomaso\u00a0Mangusta\u00a0in 2014 in the UK, where it was thereafter shipped to Greece to be part of his collection. The example is an ex-California, two-headlight \u2018pop up\u2019 model with a Ford 302 cu. engine and the later model of ZF transmission.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example had a rich history which includes an exceptional restoration that was performed in 1992. During the 50th anniversary of\u00a0DeTomaso in Modena in 2009, it was given a Concours award and was once in possession of Roger\u00a0Brotton\u00a0of\u00a0DeTomaso\u00a0marque specialists Three Point Four.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This Ford Mustang Boss 429 was produced\u00a0on\u00a0February 24, 1969, and was completed in a Raven Black finish matched with black interior. When it left the factory, chassis number KK# 1356 was equipped with the legendary 429\u00a0engine and matched\u00a0with a four-speed close ratio manual transmission that sent power to a 3.91:1 Traction-Lok rear axle.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example was also fitted with a trunk-mounted battery, functional front air spoiler, console, visibility group, power front disc brakes, power steering, AM radio, interior d\u00e9cor group-deluxe, deluxe belts\/warning\u00a0light, competition suspension, and color-keyed racing mirrors.

In the late 1980s, the NASCAR 429 engine of the example was removed and rebuilt. Unfortunately, the shop entrusted to complete the work went out of business, and the engine was never recovered.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For more than 30 years, the Boss was kept in a barn. The rear end of the car is not\u00a0true. A \u201cregular\u201d trunk has replaced the original trunk, and it has holes where the M-U-S-T-A-N-G letters should be. The trunk was able to keep its battery tray and cables and the mount holes for the spare on the driver side of the trunk.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Without a doubt, the standard Viper is a powerful and aggressive machine, and yet in 2014, Dodge introduced a more powerful and\u00a0track-ready\u00a0ACR at SEMA. The Dodge Viper ACR still had the 8.4-liter V-10 engine that can produce an impressive 645bhp and 813 nm of torque but was also fitted with many other important upgrades to improve its performance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example was made to Canadian-market specification with the Viper ACR delivered new to its first owner, based in British Columbia. Subsequently, it was exported to Europe, and it is currently based in Germany.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The example is in excellent condition throughout with only 6,600 km on the odometer from new.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
