Enzo Ferrari's 1962 330 GT Coupe

The man who founded one of the most storied automakers in history rarely ever drove the cars that bore his name. Before health issues forced him to be chauffeured, Enzo Ferrari drove Peugeot sedans — possibly the furthest thing from the V12-powered road cars Ferrari was famous for. Ferrari's success on the track lead to increasing demand for its cars, and the decision was made to build a proper 2+2 GT to expand its lineup. The result was the 330 GT, powered by the 3.9-liter Columbo V12. The quad-headlight styling was rather controversial and was only used for the first 627 330 GTs, with a more conventional two-headlight front finishing the production run until 1967. This 330 GT was driven by Enzo himself in order to help drum up interest in the car, and was one of the few Ferrari's he ever drove. While not the most desirable classic Ferrari, its pedigree gives it a unique place in the company's history.

1988 BMW M3 Coupe

The BMW M3 started in 1986 with the legendary E30 platform. The M3 used the same chassis as the E30, but with a strengthened structure, flared fenders, larger wheels, and a rear spoiler. Under the hood, an S14 four-cylinder made 192 horsepower and become known as a competitor in the rallying and road racing circuits like the World Sportscar Championship and DTM. This 1988 M3 is a low-mileage example in mint factory condition. The white over grey tartan interior color scheme is immaculate with almost no signs of wear. With its condition and status as an '80s performance icon, this M3 is ready for a new owner.

1968 Porsche 911 Soft-Window Targa

Porsche introduced the 911 Targa in 1967, with the anticipation that rollover safety regulations in the US would make engineering a traditional convertible nearly impossible. A stainless steel-clad rollbar, removable roof panel, and soft rear window replaced a folding canvas top, with a glass window becoming available in 1968. This 911 Targa is one of the last soft-window Targas made and the last year for the prized short wheelbase chassis. This 911 has its original motor and transmission, along with a long factory options list and shows 77,000 miles. The interior is amazingly preserved, with unrestored leatherette seats, Blaupunkt radio, and trim. The last of the original 911s, this one of only 268 made in 1968 and an excellent early example.

1964 Aston Martin DB5 Coupe

The ultimate grand tourer, the DB5 brought British luxury touring to its pinnacle when it replaced the DB4 in 1963. A star on the road and the screen thanks to being the preferred automobile of James Bond, the DB5 improved over the DB4 with a redesigned suspension, larger 4.0-liter straight six from the DB4 Vantage, and beautiful magnesium alloy coachwork by Italian firm Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera. The DB5 pictured here is a factory left-hand-drive model and the fifth DB5 built. The car has the early four-speed manual transmission with overdrive that was replaced in later models by a ZF five-speed and original motor. Originally sold new in San Francisco, the car's current owner purchased it in 1981 and has maintained it ever since. In original, barely-restored condition, this DB5 is ready for another 50 years of motoring with its next driver.

1991 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL 6.0 AMG Sedan

RM Sotheby's continues to expand its Youngtimer collection, adding this menacing Blue-Black Metallic 1991 Mercedes-AMG sedan to the lots up for auction. Made before Mercedes took a controlling interest in AMG in 1999, this full-size S-Class has AMG's top-of-the-line 6.0-liter "Hammer" V8, good for 375 horsepower — a staggering output for the period. This makes the sedan capable of nearly 190 MPH, a figure that holds up even now. Even better is the classic Mercedes styling with AMG touches like a widebody kit, AMG Aero wheels, and chromeless, blacked-out bodywork. With just over 67,000 miles on the odometer, this AMG is still fresh with a lot of life left and performance that is nothing to ignore even by today's standards.

1967 Lamborghini 400 GT Coupe

The 400 GT was Lamborghini's first proper 4-seater, an evolution of the 350 GT made from 1964 to 1966. The 350 GT's 3.5-liter V12 was enlarged to 4 liters and the body was lengthened and gained to rear seating. This 400 GT was purchased from the factory by its original owner and remained with him for over 50 years. When the owner moved to the south of France to retire, the car came with him and was ran regularly to make sure it was in running condition. The 400 GT was sold to its second owner in 2017 and appears exactly how it left the factory in blue over a black interior. In amazingly original condition with most of its original paint, this is one of the best of Lamborghini's early GTs on the market.

National Lampoon's Vacation Station Wagon

If you want to get your hands on a real American classic, here's your chance — a recreation Wagon Queen Family Truckster from National Lampoon's Vacation. With it's pea green paint, excessive faux-wood paneling, and questionable aesthetics, this 1981 Ford LTD station wagon is ready to take the whole family on the best disaster of a vacation you can imagine. The customization isn't just on the exterior — a modern 5-liter V8 and automatic transmission have replaced the uninspiring original mechanicals, this wagon is ready for the road — just avoid driving like Clark W. Griswold. The car crosses the auction block this April in Palm Beach.

1955 Fiat 8V Zagato Coupe

Aston Martin wasn't the only company that Carrozzeria Zagato produced gorgeous sports car coachwork for in the 1950s. Zagato clothed fellow Italian automaker Fiat's high-performance "Otto Vu" coupe in their lines for a very limited run of 26 units. The 8V featured a two-liter V8 and came draped in beautiful lines as a prototype in 1952, and the Zagato-bodied units would win five Italian sports car championships later in the decade. This Zagato 8V was never raced in-period, although it did compete in vintage events through the 1970s. A light restoration has preserved the passage of time on the car while bringing it to a perfect mechanical state — ready to be driven as any sports car should.

Magnus Walker 1972 Porsche 911 STR II Coupe

Magnus Walker lives the dream — coming to LA from England with nothing, building a fashion empire, and revolutionizing what it means to be a diehard Porsche enthusiast. Never afraid to add his own flair to a vintage Porsche, Walker's personal style is reflected in his cars, none more than his 1972 Porsche 911 STR II. Probably his most famous build, this 911 has been featured on shows and magazine covers, and is Walker's "best build to date" — a quote from the man himself. An air-cooled 3.2-liter flat-six makes 275 horsepower mated to a 915 transmission, just as Porsche intended. An updated suspension along with a new black interior give it road handling ability well beyond what a stock 911 of this vintage would be capable of while retaining the non-assisted dynamics these cars are famous for. Offered with no reserve, this is a one-time chance to own one of the most unique outlaw Porsches on the market.

1987 BMW Alpina B7 Turbo Coupe

Alpina's turbo-charged BMW's are so mechanically different from the original that Germany designates them as a manufacturer. Primarily known for tuning BMW sedans, Alpina has produced a limited number of coupes, like this ultra-rare 1987 Alpina B7. Based on the E24 6-series, this B7 is equipped with a catalytic converter. While it drops horsepower slightly versus non-catalytic-equipped models, torque is increased in the low RPM range from 377 to 383 ft-lbs. 130 B7 coupes were produced, but only 17 were equipped with the catalytic converter, making this B7 a favorite among enthusiasts. After this B7 left the factory, the interior was reupholstered in red leather with sport seats, making for a stunning contrast with the black exterior. With its combination of rarity and excellent looks, this B7 a must-have for the Alpina fan.

1971 Land Rover Series IIA SUV

Land Rover's reborn Defender is set to drop for the 2020 model year, but this 1971 Series IIA looks like it just came off the showroom floor. This restoration by Classic Car Studio took the 1971 model down to the frame for a full-on rebuild. Every nut and bolt from the chassis to the 2.25-liter four-cylinder has been torn down, cleaned, and painted or replaced where necessary, making this old-school 4x4 as good as new. The body was painted in classic Poppy Red and outfitted with a new frame and steel wheels, while the interior sports all-new black seat coverings. A new Weber carburetor has been installed along with a rebuilt transmission and front and rear differentials. Ready to drive, this Series IIA is good for at least another 45 years or more.

1973 Maserati Bora 4.9 Coupe

The Maserati Bora was a landmark model from the landmark Italian sports car manufacturer. The Bora bore a number of firsts for Maserati — the first mid-engine layout and fully-independent suspension chassis. In 1968, Ferrari's rumored mid-engine Dino prompted Maserati to start designing their own mid-engine car, but with a totally different direction. Where the small Dino wasn't branded as a Ferrari and had a V6, the Bora was a larger GT and came with a V8 that owed its roots to a design from the 50s. The exterior lines of the Bora are the height of 70s Italian design, with a long, low look penned by the legendary Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign and it has unique features like a hydraulic system that drives everything from the pedals to the pop-up headlights. This particular 1973 Bora 4.9 has the larger 4.9 liter V8 and the original champagne color and is completely numbers-matching. The car was restored in 1989 to a very high standard and is ready to be driven — as any Maserati should be.

1960 Aston Martin DB4GT Coupe

The Aston Martin DB4GT was one of the company's most successful racers and would set the bar for decades of grand touring cars that came from the factory up until the present day. This 1960 DB4GT has all the racing pedigree you could ask for, being originally sold to racing photographer Guy Griffiths in Deep Carriage Green with Beige interior. Three years later, Mike Knights took ownership and the DB4GT's racing career began in earnest, participating in a plethora of events and taking damage several times, each incident being repaired by the factory. Fast forward to 2004, when then-current owner Peter Thorton contracted Aston Engineering Ltd to build a 370 horsepower, twin-plug 4.2-liter racing engine. The car was run in many vintage racing events and received a standing invitation to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. As one of the most identifiable and competitive DB4GTs in the world, this is one classic that needs to be anywhere but parked in a collection.

1964 Shelby Cobra 289

The Shelby Cobra 427 S/C gets all the attention, but ask a true driver and they'll tell you the one to own is the 289 Cobra. Though not as powerful, the lighter 289 V8 brings out all sweetness of the British AC chassis. The Cobra here is a second-generation Mark II model with a long in-period a racing history, having dominated the SCCA United States Road Racing Championship, losing only once in three years. The Cobra took first in class at the 1967 SCCA Nationals and beat legend Mark Donahue's track record by a full second — an incredible achievement for a time when racing technology was moving at warp speed. The car spent time in several collections over the years and has had a meticulous restoration and doesn't know the word quit, having raced in numerous vintage events up until now. Looking a new owner, this Cobra is ready for the track — not the showroom.

1978 Porsche 911SC Safari Coupe

There might be a form of racing the Porsche 911 isn't good at — but it hasn't been discovered yet. On or offroad, the 911 has proven it can win in the right hands with the right setup, and if dirt is your preferred road surface, this decked-out 1978 911SC is the Porsche for you. More than just a skin-deep exterior makeover, this 911 can perform as good as it looks. The extensive mod list includes billet 964-spec camshafts in the original 3.0-liter flat-six, custom stainless steel headers and exhaust, and a 915 gearbox with shortened gear ratios. 3-way adjustable KW Clubsport coilovers with heavy-duty custom mounts mean that you won't be afraid getting some rally-style air, and aluminum skidplates protect drivetrain vitals from obstacles. The exterior features rally lights and a roof rack, and Sparco rally seats and a roll cage protect you and your navigator. Ready to drive, this 911 Safari is the real deal for offroad 911 enthusiasts.

Beck Customs 'Kuda' 1973 Plymouth Barracuda

Aaron Beck has an artist's eye along with the skills to create his vision in three dimensions. With a resume that includes working at the Acadamy Award-winning prop house Weta Workshop and credits on films like Mad Max: Fury Road, Beck is a pro, and this custom 1973 Plymouth Barracuda shows off his chops. Taking some inspiration from the aforementioned franchise, "Kuda" has been stripped completely down and rebuilt as a far better car than Chrysler's engineers had in mind when it was made. The chassis has been custom braced from top to bottom, and a full interior roll rage provides safety and further reinforcement — which is important with a 500 horsepower V8 sitting in the front and a weight of just over 3,000 pounds. The menacing stance, paint that fades from flat black to silver on the passenger side, and a stripped-down interior make this a car that would look right at home in the post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Emory AWD 1964 Porsche 356 C4S Coupe

The body of a 356. The running gear of a 1990 911 C4. Put them together and you have Emery Motorsports' latest creation. Built for a client who wanted a 356 that could get him to and from snowy ski resorts, the car was four years in the making. Its iconic bodywork was subtly widened to accommodate the 911's rear track, while the latter's wheelbase was shortened. A 2.4-L Emory-Rothsport "Outlaw-4" engine provides 200 hp and is paired to the C4's five-speed manual gearbox, while the whole thing rides on 16-inch black powder-coated wheels with Pirelli Ice Zero tires. Taken as a whole, it achieves the project's goal of creating a special Porsche that never existed, but should have.

1953 Glasspar G2 Roadster

The Corvette wasn't the only fiberglass-bodied roadster available in 1953. Southern California marine architect Bill Tritt drew on his experience with boats when he designed the Glasspar G2, a two-seater with a fiberglass body that came as either a kit or completed car. The chassis was designed to take just about any American V8 available at the time; Emilio Pistoresi chose a DeSoto Hemi and 1940 Ford transmission and rear axle for his kit version. The G2 remained with the Pistoresi family until 2010, when auto restorer Gary Hatfield bought the disassembled car and meticulously brought it back to its original glory. Only around 30 G2s are believed to exist, making it one of the rarest American cars you can get, and an excellent example of 1950s American sports car design.

1978 Porsche 911 gProgramm Coupe

In the world of outlaw 911s, Singer isn't the only choice if you're in the market for classic 911 styling with modern, high-performance underpinnings. Based in Long Island, gProgramm builds some of the best outlaw 911s available. This 1978 911, nicknamed "Mercy" and just the second gProgramm built, has been completely reworked from the ground up, starting with being totally disassembled and sandblasted down to bare metal. Rustproofing and a high-quality Slate Grey finish came next, along with subtle modifications to the bodywork like an RSR-style fuel cap in the center of the hood and factory-style foglamps under the front bumper. 17-inch reproduction Fuchs-style wheels, 986 Boxer brakes, and new coilover dampers dramatically improve the handling. A balanced and blueprinted 320 horsepower, 3.4-liter flat six with Weber downdraft carbs provides the beating heart and a beautiful Tartan interior with racing harnesses competes this modern classic.

1979 Porsche 935 Race Car

After dominating prototype sportscar racing with the 917 in the early 70s, Porsche embarked on a new racing program based on the 911. Called the 935, the program would culminate in victories at the 1979 Le Mans, Sebring, and Daytona, giving Porsche an incredible clean sweep at the most grueling endurance races in the world. This 1979 935 was sold to Otis Chandler, publisher of the Los Angeles Times. One of seven cars built for US race teams, the car ran once in the 6 Hours of Riverside before being maintained in Chandler's collection. The 935 received a new 3-liter, twin-turbo flat-six after the race, and was sold in 1993. The current owner bought the 935 in 1996 and has had it ever since. The car has been immaculately maintained and currently has a single turbocharger as per its manufacturer specs. With its combination of rarity and documentation, this is one of the most important Porsche race cars on the market today.

1937 Bugatti Type 57SC Atalante Coupe

Among automobiles, there are few true Holy Grails. The Ferrari 250 GTO, 1950s Jaguars and Aston Martins with their racing histories and early Rolls-Royces are a few examples. But few road cars can compete with Bugatti's Type 57SC Atalante. Designed by Ettore Bugatti's son Jean, the Type 57 debuted at the London Motor Show in 1935. Only 48 Type 57S's would be built, and only 17 would be bodied with the Atalante coachwork seen on the car here. This Atalante is the first of four made with the "low-headlight" design that appeared on the prototype at the 1937 Paris Auto Show. The twin-cam straight-eight motor is an advanced design based on the Type 49 and has been brought to Type 57SC specs with a period-correct supercharger. With a completely documented history since new and retaining much of its original parts, this Type 57 is a very valuable piece of early automotive history.

1979 Mercedes-Benz 500 TE AMG Wagon

AMG has built a household name as Mercedes' performance wing. Far less well-known in the late 1970s before merging with Mercedes, AMG already had a reputation for modifying the German company's sedans and wagons with serious performance parts. But this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 500 TE wagon is a mystery, despite being equipped with the best AMG had to offer at the time. There is no record of the 5-liter V8 in the car having been assigned to any chassis by Mercedes, meaning that a swap from a donor is highly unlikely. The motor has AMG headers and exhaust, oil cooler, and motor mounts custom-made for the car, and the rear suspension has been replaced with AMG-exclusive aluminum alloy pieces. AMG wheels, badging, monochrome paint scheme, and Recaro seats are all consistent with AMG's offerings at the time, and only someone with deep knowledge of AMG could have performed the modifications — meaning that it's either an unrecorded factory build or a passion project built by an unknown AMG employee in-period.

1987 Ferrari F40 LM Coupe

The last Ferrari overseen by Enzo himself, the F40 was released in 1987 to celebrate Maranello's 40th anniversary and to capitalize on the 288 GTO that was developed for the now-defunct FIA Group B racing formula. The F40 was as raw a road car as was ever built, with almost nothing in the way of luxury appointments, and was never intended for the race track — until French Ferrari importer Charles Pozzi wanted to race one. Bigger IHI turbochargers and intercoolers brought the 2.9-liter V8 to over 700 horsepower from 471 in stock trim, and weight was reduced by over 400 pounds along with chassis modifications. The F40 LM here was a factory prototype and finished 12th overall and 6th in class at the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans, eight years after it was built — an impressive feat for a car that wasn't designed to race.

1982 BMW Alpina B7 S Turbo Sedan

Founded in 1965, Alpina has been customizing BMW sedans as an independent manufacturer for over 50 years. Famous for their spoked wheels and turbocharged motors, Alpina brings the best out of BMW's machines, often getting performance figures that rival the M-series. This 1982 Alpina B7 S features a twin-turbo 3.5-liter inline six that makes 330 horsepower — an insane amount for the period and capable of rivaling dedicated sports coupes of the era. Alpina's philosophy was that owning a sedan shouldn't mean giving up the performance of coupes, and along with the engine, Alpina made a host of upgrades to the suspension, with new shocks, springs, and additional bracing. This Alpina B7 S is the 22nd made of just 60 total. With an extensively documented history and driven only 36,000 miles since new, this B7 S is a perfect example of high-performance German sedans.

French Barn Find Vintage Car Collection

Dreams still do come true, and this 81-car barn find in the French countryside proves it. Inside a massive barn and strewn about in the weeds outside, 81 cars from the 50s to the 80s were found calmly rotting away. A diverse collection, everything from massive, high-end American luxury cars like the Lincoln Continental, Cadillac Eldorado, and Chrysler Imperial were found next to European classics from Porsche, Jaguar, and even Lamborghini. The absolute star of the show is a numbers-matching 1968 Lamborghini Miura P400 with just over 48,000 miles on the odometer and expected to bring between $456,000 and $684,000. A Series I Jaguar E-Type is also in the collection, along with a pre-A Porsche 356 — although the latter is in extremely bad condition. Some other interesting models are a C3 Corvette and a 1930s Citroen van. The auction begins on January 20th in France.

1966 Ferrari 275 GTB/6C Alloy Berlinetta

Released in 1964, the Ferrari 275 GTB was an instant classic and the ultimate road car the Italian company had yet produced. The 275 GTB was the first Ferrari production car with independent rear suspension and a transaxle — the transmission being mounted over the rear wheels for optimal weight balance. The car received several tweaks throughout its lifetime, the most notable being a revised V12 in 1966 that raised horsepower up to 300 from the previous 260. The 275 GTB/C6 pictured here is the rarest of the rare. The car is one of eight alloy-bodied cars with completely different bodywork from the production version. A torque tube was added along with six Weber carbs that brought horsepower up to over 320. The first of the eight built, the car was with the original owner's family for 36 years. An immaculate restoration, original numbers-matching parts, and factory colors make this one of the most desired 275 GTBs to come to market in years.
