One of Alfa Romeo’s most celebrated competition models without question, the exquisite T33 succeeded the TZ as Milan’s factory-program sports-racing competition car. Largely developed by ex-Ferrari engineer Carlo Chiti’s Autodelta, which served as Alfa Romeo’s de facto racing arm, the T33 featured an advanced chassis driven by a powerful 2-liter V-8 engine, all wrapped in slippery closed coachwork in the vein of concurrent prototypes like the Ferrari P4 and Porsche 908. T33 evolutions contributed to two Manufacturer’s Championships and two 2nd-place finishes for Alfa Romeo over the following 11 years, and it remains one of the most widely admired prototype racing cars of any era. This remarkable Alfa Romeo is known to be the first of just a handful of T33/2 examples that were at some point equipped with a 2.5-liter engine. Even during the T33’s first racing season, Autodelta was already considering increasing displacement to three liters, and to this end a 2.5-liter unit was tested in Alec Mildren’s Brabham in the Tasman Series in Australia during the winter of 1967–1968. This engine specification was soon utilized in isolated instances during the 1968 season. While there is some degree of uncertainty regarding which exact chassis were equipped with a 2.5-liter motor during individual 1968 events, Peter Collins’ and Ed McDonough’s excellent book on the model clarifies that chassis 015 ran at least four races that year, two of which featured the larger engine. CHASSIS NUMBER 015 IN COMPETITION Chassis number 015 made its debut at the 1968 season opener, the 24 Hours of Daytona, as one of a trio of T33/2 examples entered by Autodelta and equipped with two-liter engines. Piloted by Lucien Bianchi and the legendary Mario Andretti, the Alfa Romeo roared to a 5th-in-class finish (6th overall), taking the middle position of a 5-6-7 consecutive finish by the three cars. While there was no separate class for under-2-liter prototypes, this dominant performance was impressive enough to earn the model the nickname “Daytona,” which was particularly appropriate considering that Autodelta had spent countless hours optimizing the T33/2 specifically for the Daytona circuit. Entered as race #220 at the Targa Florio in May, chassis 015 became the first T33/2 to appear with the 2.5-liter engine. Local Sicilian hero Nino Vaccarella leapt out to hold 2nd place for two laps before relinquishing driving duties to Udo Schutz, who proceeded to spin the car into a wall (and out of the race) after encountering a patch of loose gravel. At the Nürburgring 1000 KM two weeks later, Schutz and Lucien Bianchi achieved a level of redemption for the 2.5-liter car with a 4th-in-class finish (7th overall). In late August at the Austrian Grand Prix, the T33/2 was entered by the Belgian Count Rudi van der Straten, a descendent of the founders of Stella Artois beer, and the principal of the eponymous VDS racing team. This preferred Alfa Romeo client would soon play a much greater role in the car’s history, and VDS drivers Teddy Pilette and Gustave Gosselin finished 3rd in class (4th overall). For the 1969 season the Alfa Romeo passed to VDS, and under van der Straten’s leadership the car ran at least two events, and probably several more. Highlights included a 5th-in-class finish (8th overall) at the Monza 1000 KM in late April while driven by Pilette and Rob Slotemaker, and 5th in class (6th overall) at the Spa 1000 KM in May, again driven by Pilette and Slotemaker. AN ALFA ROMEO IN ANGOLA The following year, VDS sold chassis number 015 to a Portuguese driver named Antonio Peixinho, and he shipped the car to Angola, the African nation and onetime Portuguese colony that was a hotbed of racing before revolution swept the country during the 1970s. During the 1970 and 1971 seasons Peixinho racked up at least five victories at circuits like Malange and the Nova Lisboa 6 Hours. Driver Santos Peras then began racing the T33/2 in 1972, and he captured a victory at the Circuito de Carmona in July 1974. At some point the Alfa Romeo passed to Antonio De Santos, a Portuguese national who stored the car among a group of other period racing gems, including a Ford GT40 and a Chevron B19. With the increasing violence posed by Angola’s war for independence, De Santos returned to his native Portugal, and the racecars were left to languish while becoming something of a local legend. In the mid-1980s a Frenchman named Jean Chambault, a racing enthusiast who happened to be conducting business in Angola, heard about the dormant cars, and upon confirming the rumor he immediately contacted De Santos in Lisbon to arrange a purchase. Strangely enough, the final price included a VCR and a 2-liter Ford Cortina engine. But that was just the beginning of the negotiations, for Chambault struggled to persuade the Angolan government to release the T33/2 until finally an arrangement was made to airlift the car out in a Hercules transport plane. Mr. Chambault soon offered the Alfa Romeo for sale, and in 1994 the car passed into a short chain of Italian-based ownership, during which time it was restored by ex-Autodelta mechanic Marcello Gambi. The next caretakers acquired the T33/2 in 2000, and after further freshening the car participated in the 2000 and 2004 Le Mans Classic. Remarkably, this potent racing machine was registered for road use in Germany at this time, as indicated by German Fahrzeugbrief paperwork on file! In 2006 the Alfa Romeo was acquired by David Jacobs, a former skiing champion and skiwear entrepreneur based in Boulder, Colorado, and he conducted further restorative measures before embarking on a vintage racing campaign that included runs at the 2008 and 2010 Le Mans Classic, and the 2009 Monterey Historics. Sold to the consignor in early 2012, the Alfa Romeo was further dialed in for racing use, with no expense spared. Notably, as documented by 2013 invoices on file, over $50,000 was invested in just the engine rebuild, conducted by specialists S. Jennings Racing (then located in Tooele, Utah). It was then enjoyed at competition locales including Watkins Glen, Silverstone, Nürburgring, Zandvoort, Spa, and the 2017 Monterey Historics. Following this on-track duty, the V-8 was subsequently returned to S. Jennings Racing for inspection and assessment. Given the number of hours the high-performance engine had accrued, another full rebuild was undertaken, with 2018 invoices in excess of $65,000 detailing the work performed on the engine and ancillaries. Still fitted with the rare 2.5-liter engine, chassis number 015 is one of approximately 23 T33/2 chassis numbers allocated, of which just 10 examples are known to survive today. It should be noted that the car features a modified driver-side door for improved ease of entry, and it is accompanied by its original rear clamshell bodywork. Also accompanying the car is a substantial collection of spare parts (an inventory is on file for review). Finished in the proper #220 race livery as seen at the 1968 Targa Florio, where the 2.5-liter engine made its debut, this jaw-dropping T33/2 promises countless thrills, be it from a mere glance at the sensuous coachwork to an exhilarating round of high-performance hot laps. Perfectly suited for the prototype racing aficionado or Alfa Romeo competition car collector, this heart-stopping Daytona would make a crowning addition to any sporting collection. 1968 Alfa Romeo T33/2 'Daytona' RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

911 S upgraded to ST Specification. 3.6 Litre engine running Jenvey throttle bodies and OMEX electronic ignition. G50 quick shift close ratio gearbox. The Porsche 911 S ‘ST Evocation’ offered at Autostorico is a September 1974 example which was supplied new to North America market. Fast forward to 2006 when the car was purchased by an avid Porsche enthusiast David White. David along with the car moved to Slovenia where the journey to build the ultimate ST Evocation began. He undertook a no expense spared conversion with the help of Matjaz Novak an ex Porsche racing engineer. Works included removing the engine, gearbox and stripping the whole body, before replacing many of the panels with lightweight Kevlar or carbon panels before a respray in Viper Green. The original engine was replaced with a fully rebuilt 3.6 litre 964 unit running Jenvey throttle bodies and an OMEX electronic fuel injection system. This was mated to a close ratio quick shift G50 gearbox with a ZF limited slip differential along with upgraded brakes and suspension system. Other highlights include genuine 16” Fuchs alloys, Bonnet mounted driving lights, Bespoke exhaust system, FIA approved Heigo roll cage, Schruth harnesses, Heated windscreen. A period lightweight interior was installed which included Bielstein bucket seats, Alcantara trim and Momo steering wheel.

History of Beck and the 904 Carrera GTS The history of Beck cars dates back to their extensive development of vintage era tribute cars focused on creating vehicles that were easily accessible to a wide range of enthusiasts unable to acquire one of the rare original examples. Known for their 550 and 356 models, Chuck Beck initiated the build process for the 904 with careful engineering considerations, releasing the 904 GTS on a custom order basis with production features including a TIG and spot welded tubular stainless-steel chassis, folded stainless sheet floor, and boxed ladder main frame rails. For the suspension, Beck developed Chevron B-16 inspired independent front and rear coil-over suspension (rear 4-link with parallel trailing arm), CNC billet aluminum uprights, and installed manual rack and pinion steering. The hand laid fiberglass body was bonded to the frame for added structural rigidity and an integral roll bar with optional door bars was integrated into the interior. The prototype GTS was tested at Road Atlanta running a 3.6-liter engine. Though these cars were offered with a range of engine options including Subaru and VW based flat 4 engines, each owner could specify engine and transmission preferences for their final build. Of particular note, a “wide body” variant was offered which featured an additional 3” of rear fender flare, allowing for the added tire width necessary to maintain adhesion on models outfitted with higher output engines. History of this Carrera GTS According to the current owner, this example is one of the first 904 models built and one of the rare wide body variants offered. The original commissioning build was performed by Beck. This example is believed to be one of the earliest 904 GTS models built and quite possibly the first wide body 904 constructed. Built with a dry sump 3.8-liter Porsche 993 twin-plug engine, fuel-injection, and 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle, this wide body 904 was completed with track day specifications and used minimally by the first owner for a few track-day events and occasional street use. Current Condition Today this Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents as a professionally finished car with mechanical integrity and exterior cosmetics consistent with minimal use since it was completed. The silver paint has been smoothly applied over the hand laid fiberglass body panels which exhibit good fit and finish throughout the iconic 904 low-profile body lines. The additionally widened rear fender flares (exclusive to the wide body design) have been formed to accommodate the massive rear wheels yet still match the smaller front flares giving the car an impressive stance. The glass windshield, clear plastic sliding side panes, and plexiglass rear window are all in excellent condition. A set of matching staggered width Fuchs style three-piece wheels with Toyo Proxes R888 215/40ZR17 front and 315/35 40ZR17 rear race tires with aluminum Brembo red finished calipers perched over four-wheel disc brakes. Competition touches include clear plexiglass covered headlights, aluminum engine vent screen, dual chrome racing mirrors, and a set of Hella yellow lens fog lamps. The cockpit is very well laid out finished with black vinyl door trim, felt-lined rear bulkhead, and integrated rollbar. The dashboard features an instrument pod outfitted with three large-dial Porsche VDO black and green gauges including an 8k tachometer, 180 mph speedometer, and multi-gauge cluster. The dash continues across the passenger area with a series of labeled switches and contemporary VDO small dial gauges. A set of black vinyl seats are outfitted with Crow racing harnesses. A padded quick release steering wheel features a Porsche center crest and mounts cleverly in reverse configuration for added driver arm length. The interior delivers a purposeful no-frills, ready for action presentation, in keeping with the original commissioned build for a capable track day car. Raising the rear section of the car, the simplicity and effectiveness of the sophisticated Chevron B-16 inspired independent suspension, stainless-steel tubular frame, and twin-plug 993 3.8-liter engine create a very impressive visual statement. The engine is outfitted with a dry sump oil system using an aluminum oil tank and remote oil filter. The engine is mated to a 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle and the 12-volt system uses an Optima battery and alternator. The front is accessible via a hinged hood which reveals an aluminum foam-filled fuel cell and fluid reservoirs. The underside reveals further details of the lightweight construction, independent coil-over A-arm suspension, and componentry consistent with the build performed by Chuck Beck. This Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a professionally built and properly prepared example crafted by the premier builder of the iconic 904 in tribute to the original configuration. Although this car has been formerly prepared for track day use, we highly recommend a professional shop with racing car prep history inspect this car and properly prepare it before use in a competition setting. 1973 Porsche Beck 904 Carrera GTS replica Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Of all the versions of Jaguar's long-lived and much loved sports car, it’s the very early 3.8-litre cars built prior to February 1962 (retrospectively known as 'flat floor') which, for many enthusiasts, remain the most desirable. Around 2,000 of the early cars were built with a flat floor under the pedals, but the driving position was not ideal for taller drivers, so changes were made to the footwell, creating a recess for the driver's heels. The lovely 1962 3.8-litre Roadster offered here is indeed one of those sought after early ‘flat-floor’ cars and the accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate confirms that #850334 was a right-hand drive car finished in Opalescent Gunmetal Grey with a dark blue interior and matching soft top. The build was finished on 6th January 1962 prior to being despatched on the 16th of the same month to Henlys, London, who registered it to its first lucky owner on the 29th. Interestingly, the chassis number and build date indicate that this was one of the first six right-hand drive roadsters built in 1962. Whilst in the ownership of Malcolm Acors, the car was fully restored and upgraded to 4.2-litres by Fullbridge Jaguar in Maldon, Essex alongside a matching Coupé and both cars were featured in a multi-page article in Jaguar World Magazine. In 2007, 6032 DD was entrusted to Eagle E-Types to upgrade to a 'Sports-Specification Eagle' which appears to be a combination of their GT, Classic, Sport and Super option packages and a full list entitled 'Eagle Endorsed E-Type – Current Specification/Proposal' is with the car. It’s a long list, covering essentially electrics, cooling, suspension and brakes but there are some substantial upgrades including a 5-speed gearbox, high-lift camshafts, diaphragm clutch and 6" stainless wire wheels with modern tyres. 850334/6032 DD was purchased by our vendor on 17th February 2012 to join his Collection and was used very lightly, but regularly, over the following years as can be seen by the MOT history (for some of this time the car was registered 5 AXD). The indicated mileage at the time of cataloguing was 4,007. Annual servicing, check-overs and maintenance has been carried out by Eagle and they have also been responsible for storing the car for long periods. Copy invoices from Eagle to the value of £13,298 (all dated 2012) are in the file which also contains Job Cards for the following years. The hood (soft-top) appears to have been replaced in September 2012 at a cost of £2,600. The final invoice in the history file is from DK Engineering, dated 2nd July 2019 for an 'Annual Service & Report' at 3,660 miles and totalling £1,112. Here at Iconic Auctioneers we have been instrumental in helping several hundred Jaguar E-Types find new homes and probably could be forgiven for becoming slightly blasé about these remarkable cars, however we defy anyone to look at these stunning Alan Kenny images of this Opalescent Gunmetal early Roadster relaxing in the late-afternoon sunshine and not feel that it is one of the most beautiful motor cars they had ever seen.

Introduced by Mercedes-Benz in 1961, the top-of-the-range W112 was sold to the public as the 300SE, the ultimate Mercedes in the early 1960s. While sharing the same platform and timelessly elegant, Paul Bracq designed bodywork as the W111 220, the W112 coupe and convertibles were fitted with the smooth, powerful, fuel-injected M189 Type big-block straight -six power unit. They were also equipped with advanced self-levelling pneumatic rear suspension, power steering and automatic transmission along with a more luxurious interior. Externally, the W112 could be distinguished by significantly more brightwork as well as larger 14-inch wheels. Automatic transmission was standard with a much smaller number of cars were supplied with the manual gearbox. Costing nearly twice as much as a 220SE, more than a Rolls-Royce at the time, a 300SE was always going to be an exclusive purchase. Indeed, just 3127 were made before the long-established body style left the catalogue. Relative rarity and enduring good looks mean therefore that these forever classic Mercedes models have become more sought after. Painted in a very attractive dark blue, this 300SE Coupe still delivers an impressive turn of speed with the super smooth fuel-injected six giving ample power driven through the all synchromesh 4-speed ‘box. With nicely patinated yet very comfortable black leather and lots of wood within, this is a classic motor car for every occasion. A file of invoices accompanies the car from time it spent previously in New Zealand and Ireland. 1965 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE Will Stone Historic Cars Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Much like its 300 SL bigger brother, the 190 SL was the brainchild of Mercedes-Benz American importer Max Hoffman. Hoffman believed that a smaller, less costly roadster bearing a family resemblance to the more exotic 300 SL would prove to be just as successful. Given the car’s popularity upon debuting at the 1954 New York Auto Show and subsequent success throughout its nine-year production run, Hoffman was right. Its heart was a 1.9-liter inline four-cylinder engine with dual Solex carburetors rated to produce 120 horsepower and good for a reported top speed of over 105 mph. The 190 SL was an effortless cruiser, and its trunk could easily accommodate a weekend’s worth of luggage for two. Priced at $3,840 when new, it cost nearly half as much as a 300 SL Roadster. This 1955 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL is a wonderfully restored example finished in its factory special-order colors, Graphite Grey with a Red leather interior and a Light Grey soft-top. Delivered to New York on 6 September 1955, the roadster features a number of details only seen on early production models including bucket seats, steering wheel-mounted turn signals, metal vent levers, and factory glass reflectors at the rear. After being shipped to the United States, the car remained under the care of its first owner for a short time before being sold to a second enthusiast in 1961. It was later purchased in original condition by its third owner in 1996. Just a handful of years later, the Mercedes-Benz became the subject of a comprehensive nut-and-bolt restoration that commenced in 2004. Expertly performed, the car was faithfully reassembled to how the roadster would have appeared when leaving the factory floor nearly half a century earlier. Notably, it retains its numbers-matching engine. Soon after completion, the car was awarded Best of Show at the 2004 International 190 SL Convention in Sonoma, California. Confirming the immense quality of the restoration, a second Best of Show award was bestowed upon the car at the same event, this time held in South Carolina in 2023—two decades after the completion of the work. The 190 SL is accompanied by a set of fitted luggage, owner’s books, a tool kit, a 190 SL brochure, a 190 SL leaflet, correspondence, and a collection of restoration invoices. Now a little over 20 years removed from its masterful restoration, the 190 SL on offer continues to present with a jewelry-like quality that still easily holds its own against more recently completed contenders. 1955 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This beautiful Alfa Romeo, completed in 1960, was probably delivered new in Italy but registered in the Canton Grisons already in June 1961. To match the engine power with the sporting appearance, many years ago a 140hp 2.3 litre Rio-engine with twin Weber DCOE carbs was installed. With considerably more power and torque the Touring Spider now presents a great car for Oldtimer rallies and excursions into the Swiss Alps. The Alfa was restored several years ago. Maintenance records from 2014 for around 35’000 francs are available. As one of only 3’443 examples built, this car is in good to very good and well-maintained condition. The last MOT was completed in May 2022. 1960 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider Touring Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Since 1967, AMG has achieved worldwide success in its customer-car business by following an extremely simple ethos: If you could pay for it, AMG could do it. Before its acquisition by Mercedes-Benz in 1993, AMG and its semi-independent franchisees around the world never made character judgments upon prospective customers. Unlike most marques, AMG did not care who you were, how many times you had done business previously, or how outrageous your customization requests might be—AMG cared least of all where your money came from…anyone with enough cash could be an AMG customer. The car offered here is not only a perfect example of AMG’s corporate ethos, but also the company’s skill in executing even the wildest requests of its demanding clientele. This wide-bodied 560 SEC 6.0—the “Marakaito Missile”—is, without reproach, one of AMG’s most highly personalized creations ever produced for a customer. But before digging into this car’s outrageous specification, let us briefly contextualize the mind-boggling expenditure represented by the general model offered here. First, the cost of its 6.0-liter DOHC engine conversion, and wide-body package from AMG—tacked onto the sticker price of a brand-new, flagship SEC Coupe—made this model one of the most expensive roadgoing marvels of the period. And that would be just for a “normal” 6.0-liter, wide-body SEC...but the Marakaito Missile is anything but normal, even so far as AMG builds go. This car’s original owner—reputedly a Japanese businessman of considerable means—demanded the absolute best. Cosmetically, the car has everything: A full aero kit, a staggered set of color-matched Aero III wheels, and a rear wing-type decklid spoiler. For the most extreme interior customization requests, AMG regularly partnered with leading upholstery specialists such as Gemballa, or in the case of this car, Carat Duchatelet of Belgium. And the interior is really where the specifications get wild. Absolutely every inch of the interior has been hand-trimmed in buffalo leather; the center console, dashboard, steering column, door panels, rear parcel shelf, headliner, and power-adjustable Recaro seats are all done up in upgraded leather (with green piping). Even the control panels for the seats are wrapped in leather! The lower dashboard is done in black buffalo leather, while the upper dashboard wears dark green buffalo leather which also finds its way to the matching set of grain-matched, leather-faced gauges with hand-painted indications. A full suite of burlwood trim pieces accentuates the cabin upholstery to an incredible standard of finish which even carries to the storage covers on the rear parcel shelf. No self-respecting AMG Japan customer would abstain from ordering a full Nakamichi sound system, and this car’s original owner was no exception. Though the car was evidently specified with every single performance option available, of particular interest among its long list of desire-inducing specifications is the M117/9 “transitional” AMG V-8 engine. Rarely seen, the M117/9 is an amalgamation of the earliest M119 block and heads with the latest M117 accessories, all cleverly mated together and stuffed with AMG internal components to supply approximately 375 horsepower. This powerplant represents a very temporary, transitional phase during which AMG’s world-class technicians were bridging the development gap between the outgoing M117 engine and the new M119 engine which Mercedes-Benz had debuted in late 1989. As such, compared to AMG’s earlier DOHC M117 motors these very late M117/9 hybrids enjoy greatly improved robustness, reliability, and serviceability. In November 2024, noted pre-merger AMG specialist Jonathan Hodgman of Blue Ridge Mercedes (Lilburn, Georgia) furnished the car with nearly $20,000 in mechanical freshening and NLA parts. Of particular note is a new set of custom-spec engine mounts, new spark plugs, a factory-correct AMG torque converter, distributor cap, as well as a host of miscellaneous seals, gaskets, lines, filters, and fluids for the engine and transmission. An AMG specialist for RM Sotheby’s recently commented, “the Marakaito Missile is full of AMG-commissioned, Carat-executed touches I’ve only seen rarely and certainly not together before. The attention to detail is absurd throughout, while the engine is very much a time-and-place kind of thing which was only in production for an extremely brief period. Considering that the Japanese economy collapsed only a few months after this car was built, I think it’s fair to say that this car was assembled at the perfect time, for the perfect AMG customer—someone who never asked ‘how much will that cost, or what will people think of me’…a true individual.” Presented today from a notable California-based collection, the Marakaito Missile presents an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire what is, rather inarguably, the most highly personalized example of AMG’s most impactful, era-defining poster car. 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEC 6.0 AMG 'Wide-Body' RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The lower dashboard is done in black buffalo leather, while the upper dashboard wears dark green buffalo leather which also finds its way to the matching set of grain-matched, leather-faced gauges with hand-painted indications. A full suite of burlwood trim pieces accentuates the cabin upholstery to an incredible standard of finish which even carries to the storage covers on the rear parcel shelf. No self-respecting AMG Japan customer would abstain from ordering a full Nakamichi sound system, and this car’s original owner was no exception. Though the car was evidently specified with every single performance option available, of particular interest among its long list of desire-inducing specifications is the M117/9 “transitional” AMG V-8 engine. Rarely seen, the M117/9 is an amalgamation of the earliest M119 block and heads with the latest M117 accessories, all cleverly mated together and stuffed with AMG internal components to supply approximately 375 horsepower. This powerplant represents a very temporary, transitional phase during which AMG’s world-class technicians were bridging the development gap between the outgoing M117 engine and the new M119 engine which Mercedes-Benz had debuted in late 1989. As such, compared to AMG’s earlier DOHC M117 motors these very late M117/9 hybrids enjoy greatly improved robustness, reliability, and serviceability. In November 2024, noted pre-merger AMG specialist Jonathan Hodgman of Blue Ridge Mercedes (Lilburn, Georgia) furnished the car with nearly $20,000 in mechanical freshening and NLA parts. Of particular note is a new set of custom-spec engine mounts, new spark plugs, a factory-correct AMG torque converter, distributor cap, as well as a host of miscellaneous seals, gaskets, lines, filters, and fluids for the engine and transmission. An AMG specialist for RM Sotheby’s recently commented, “the Marakaito Missile is full of AMG-commissioned, Carat-executed touches I’ve only seen rarely and certainly not together before. The attention to detail is absurd throughout, while the engine is very much a time-and-place kind of thing which was only in production for an extremely brief period. Considering that the Japanese economy collapsed only a few months after this car was built, I think it’s fair to say that this car was assembled at the perfect time, for the perfect AMG customer—someone who never asked ‘how much will that cost, or what will people think of me’…a true individual.” Presented today from a notable California-based collection, the Marakaito Missile presents an unrepeatable opportunity to acquire what is, rather inarguably, the most highly personalized example of AMG’s most impactful, era-defining poster car.

By the 1980s, former Lamborghini test driver and development engineer Claudio Zampolli had relocated to Los Angeles and established a successful business servicing the supercars of the wealthy and famous. But his dreams did not end there: Determined to build his own supercar, Zampolli teamed up with music producer Giorgio Moroder as an investor in the late 1980s and embarked on his journey to create an exotic like nothing that had been seen before. Zampolli wanted something that would grab headlines, and he knew that an innovative V-16 was the answer. Inspired by the engine layout of the Lamborghini Miura, Zampolli’s creation had a transverse-mounted 6.0-liter V-16 with a five-speed manual gearbox. The stunning bodywork was penned by legendary designer Marcelo Gandini, who is also known for designing the Miura, Countach, Stratos, and countless other iconic cars. Zampolli’s partnership with Moroder dissolved after the first prototype, and the cars, initially marketed as the Cizeta-Moroder V16T, went into production wearing only the Cizeta name. Ultimately, only nine examples were completed in the V16T’s initial run due to production delays and the model’s complexity. For Zampolli, however, Cizeta was a success: His dream of building an exclusive supercar of his own design had been accomplished, and the final result was nothing short of spectacular. Given the Cizeta’s backstory, cost, and exclusivity, it is no surprise that each V16T produced has an interesting backstory. This car, chassis 101, is no exception. After Brunei became an independent country in 1983, the Sultan of Brunei and his family used a portion of their vast oil wealth to build the largest car collection the world had ever seen. Commissioning approximately 2,000 cars from all different manufacturers, the Royal Family singlehandedly kept many luxury brands in business through the tough years of the 1990s. Their search for the most exclusive and technically advanced cars money could buy led them to Cizeta. The Royal Family purchased three of the nine Cizeta V16Ts built: This blue example and two black examples. Chassis 101 was ordered by Hong Seh Motors of Singapore on behalf of the Brunei Royal Family. Hong Seh was the official Ferrari dealership in Singapore, and many cars from the Royal Family’s collection were ordered through them. Finished in blue with blue leather interior and with right-hand drive, chassis 101 was used in press photo shoots throughout Italy and was displayed at the 1993 Geneva Auto Show. Nearly all 983 kilometers (~611 miles) on the odometer at the time of cataloguing are believed to have been accumulated during testing by the factory in this period. Interestingly, chassis 101 has horizontal slats over the side air intakes like the prototype, while most other examples have vertical slats. Chassis 101 was shipped from Modena to Asia in March 1993; for unknown reasons, it remained with Hong Seh Motors in Singapore for over 25 years and was never delivered to Brunei. Pininfarina subsequently heavily modified the other two V16Ts purchased by the Royal Family with Ferrari flat-12 engines and irreversible structural changes. One of those cars remains in an incomplete disassembled state, while the other is displayed in the Marconi Museum in Tustin, California. Chassis 101 is the only V16T from the Brunei Royal Family’s collection to have escaped this fate and today remains just as it arrived in Singapore. A previous owner purchased chassis 101 from Hong Seh Motors in 2020 and returned the car to driving condition after its two-and-a-half-decade stay in Singapore. Prior to being sold again in 2021, the car had all the fluids changed, the cooling system serviced, and the fuel system cleaned. With its innovative transverse-mounted V-16 positioned close to the passengers, the Cizeta is a thrill to drive with a unique sound unlike any other supercar. The Cizeta V16T is a seldom-seen but incredibly interesting machine which still remains one of very few post-war sixteen-cylinder production cars. With incredible performance, stunning design, fascinating history, and utmost exclusivity, this V16T will surely stand out wherever it goes. 1993 Cizeta V16T RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The GT3 of its time There are many iterations of Porsche’s foundational 356, though few are as rare or as exciting to drive as the B 2000 GS Carrera 2. Conceived to homologate engineer Ernst Fuhrmann’s soul-stirring two-litre four-cam Carrera engine for racing, the 356 B 2000 GS was the fastest and most powerful production Porsche road car, boasting 130HP and a top speed in excess of 120mph – considerably higher figures than its 1500cc two-cam counterparts. Despite the hefty price tag of 7,600 US dollars, customers lapped up the new ‘hot’ 356 and Porsche’s order books soon filled up – especially with customers from across the pond in the United States of America. Despite only needing to build 100 examples to satisfy the homologation requirements, Porsche sold a staggering 278 B 2000 GS Carrera 2s. In so many respects, the Carrera 2 is the GT3 of its time. Chassis no. 119534 A beautifully restored yet highly authentic example of the Porsche 356 B 2000 GS Carrera 2, chassis number 119534 was first briefly employed as a factory test vehicle. It left the factory in April of 1962, destined for Paris. It was originally finished in Oslo Blue over a red leatherette and beige corduroy interior. Crucially, it was specified with the ultra-rare factory electronic sunroof and disc brakes on all four corners. The car remained in France for three years before it was returned to the factory and subsequently sold to the United States. It was listed in the Porsche 4-Cam Registry by its California-based owner Terry Massa in 1983. Records show Massa retained chassis number 119534 until 2000, when it passed into the hands of the German 356 authority Dieter Ambrosy and was subsequently returned to its homeland. Ambrosy undertook a two-year ground-up restoration of the car in 2006. The primary goal for the project was preserving originality. Refinished in metallic silver over a black interior, chassis number 119534 was issued with its German registration in August of 2008. In 2014, this Carrera 2 was acquired by a German enthusiast building a remarkable collection of world-class Porsches spanning the marque’s entire history. As the accompanying documentation attests, this 356 has since been fastidiously maintained regardless of cost, carefully stored in the aforementioned collection and enjoyed on several occasions, including on the Schloss Bensberg Supersports Classic Rally in 2017. Telling of its extraordinary condition and quality, chassis number 119534 was also awarded the ‘Best Porsche’ award at the 2018 Masterpieces Concours d’Elegance at Schloss Dyck in Germany. “Chassis number 119534 was awarded the ‘Best Porsche’ award at the 2018 Masterpieces Concours d’Elegance at Schloss Dyck in Germany.” In recent years, the maintenance of this 356 has been entrusted to a respected German marque specialist, most recently in June of 2023, when the overall mileage (since the restoration in 2006) was noted as 3,849km. The odometer currently reads 4,543km. One of the highest-quality 356 B Carrera 2s we have encountered, chassis number 119534 is currently European taxes paid, registered in Germany and located in Monaco. 1962 Porsche 356 B 2000 GS Carrera 2 Girardo & Co.
