  • 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4

    The Overview For two short years in 1971 and 1972, Ferrari produced the 365 GTC/4, a 2+2 grand tourer based on the chassis and drivetrain of the 365 GTB/4 “Daytona”. Under the hood was a 4.4 L Tipo F 101 AC 000 Colombo V12 engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission that put out 335 hp. Rather than a transaxle setup like the Daytona, the 5-speed transmission was bolted directly to the engine, giving the 365 GTC/4 a near-perfect 51:49 weight distribution. US export models received three-point seat belts, side markers, and numerous engine modifications to comply with Federal emission standards, including air injection, a carbon, and a different exhaust system which lowered the engine output to 316 hp. Only 505 examples were built over the car’s two-year production span. Today, the GTC/4 stands as the more elegant and manageable younger sibling of the infamous Daytona. With a dramatically more street-worthy nature, the GTC/4 has the looks of the much pricier Daytona while being far more pleasant and comfortable to use on a daily basis. Pricing on the GTC/4 has been very solid over the last 5 years while continually trending in a positive direction. Having driven both extensively, we feel that the GTC/4 is overall undervalued given the fantastic V12 experience it provides in addition to its timeless good looks, and we see ample room for increased future value. This particular example, 101AC101147745, was originally one of just 15 GTC/4s finished in Verde Medio Niyinsky Italver, a striking bright green color with a Beige Connolly leather interior. It was delivered new in 1971 to official dealer M. Gastone Crepaldi Automobili S.a.s., domiciled at Via San Marco 26 in Milan, Italy. It was sold to its first owner, Mr. Alberto Tollentino, a resident of Milan, Italy. In 1976, it was exported from Italy to the United States at which time it was also repainted dark red first, and then in 1977, repainted again to blue metallic. It was then offered for sale by Ferrari of Los Gatos in Los Gatos, CA, in 1978 and again in 1988 with a reported 18,875 miles on the odometer. The car was then purchased by a new owner out of New York and repainted black, and later that same year, it was yet again offered for sale by Berlinetta Motorcars in Huntington Station, NY. Two years later, in 1990, the Ferrari was offered for sale by Tim Stanford Foreign Cars out of Fort Lauderdale, FL, with a reported 19,500 miles on the odometer. It remained in Florida for the next three years, where it was offered for sale by the same owner in 1991, 1992, and 1993 before it eventually exchanged hands in 1993 with 19,847 miles on the odometer. Following a six-year ownership in Miami, FL, this GTC/4 was offered for sale in 1999 to a fellow Floridian who owned the car for the next seven years. It made its way to Motorcar Gallery in Fort Lauderdale, FL, on July 2006 and was reportedly freshly serviced before being listed. It was purchased in August by it’s next owner out of Mars, PA, who continued owning the car for the next five years. The Ferrari made its rounds on eBay in late 2011 and early 2012. It was described as having undergone a bare metal Rosso Cordoba respray with a new Interior, re-chromed trim, engine detail, freshened camshaft by Web Cam Inc, rebuilt carburetors, starter, alternator, AC system, and brake booster. Sometime in mid to late 2012, it was purchased by its next owner out of Charlotte, NC, which is when the service records on file begin. Throughout this ownership, the car was mostly serviced at Automotive International of Charlotte, NC. In August of 2012, it received a brake system flush, cleaned wiper assembly, as well as some minor interior electrical repairs. It returned in October of the same year for further minor services that included an inoperative heat fan and a broken fuel enrichment system. A new window switch and lighter plug were installed along with new headlamps in August of 2013 by the same shop. A new ignition coil was installed in June 2014 to correct an intermittent ignition issue, and new engine mounts were also installed. The passenger wiper was repaired in March of 2015 due to a broken wiper arm post shaft, the voltage regulator was rebuilt, and the rear right wheel bearing was replaced. In May of 2015, new ignition boxes were installed along with the corresponding wiring and ignition coils. A couple of small holes in an exhaust were repaired as well. The car would exchange hands again in 2018, where it ended up with its current owner and consignor, who is a good friend and enthusiast. Being very knowledgeable about the workings of cars, he completed a number of maintenance items on his own, which included having the brake booster and master cylinder rebuilt, replacing the spark plug wires with factory-correct ones, replacing the fuel and vacuum hoses, balancing and tuning the carbs, and replacing the fluids and oil in 2020 then again in 2022. On June 16th, 2019, this GTC/4 was shown at ‘Eyes on Design,’ in Grosse Pointe Shores, MI, where it won a Blue Ribbon and the Designer’s Choice Award. As it sits, this is a well-sorted and very correct example of one of Ferrari’s most underrated V12 grand touring machines. High-speed and long-distance driving are what this car was built for, and its lengthy service history will allow its future owner to enjoy it to its full potential. Upon purchase, the new owner will receive the original toolkit, owner’s manual, and all service and history records on file. In addition, we are working on getting a Massini report for the car, which will be uploaded to the listing and included in the sale as well. The Details EXTERIOR Body And Paint The body shows straight original panels with good gaps throughout and no issues to speak of. The fitment of body panels appears to be factory correct. The paint, while not original, has wonderful depth and shine throughout and presents very nicely. Outside of very minor blemishes on the headlight covers, there is slight bubbling on the rear window surrounds as well as a ½ inch scratch on the driver’s side fender near the windshield. Glass And Trim The glass appears to be all original and free of any major blemishes. The trim and brightwork are all present and in very good condition with no nicks or scratches, and the rubber is deep black with no cracks. The front bumper rubber is very smooth with only minor aging but it looks consistent with the rest of the car. Wheels The wheels are in great condition on all four corners, with only the center lugnuts showing some abrasion. Notable Flaws Overall this GTC/4 presents extremely well. The only real items to note are some slight bubbling on the rear window surrounds as well as a ½ inch scratch on the driver’s side fender near the windshield. INTERIOR Seats And Surfaces The seats, which have been redone, are in good condition. The driver’s side is a bit more worn than the passenger side, which is to be expected. There is some discoloration on the seat bottom but other than that, they are in fantastic shape. The felt-lined dash is in fantastic condition. All the chrome surrounds are still bright and shiny, with no haziness present. Functionality And Accessories Everything in the cabin works properly as it should. All switches for the lights, fans, and window switches work without issue. All gauges operated correctly during our time driving the car. ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK Engine Bay The engine bay presents remarkably clean and correct. Following its recent detail, the engine bay looks great, with all the hoses deep and dark with no cracking and the wires neatly tucked. All factory stickers and markings are present as well. There are no signs of any issues, past or present, and it appears the car has been kept under careful ownership, with maintenance and correctness being of high priority. Trunk Area The trunk area is clean and tidy, with the original full Ferrari tool kit present at the back. Lifting up the floor reveals the full-sized spare as well. Underside The underside is clean and dry, with no odd leaks present. No rust or oxidation to note either. MECHANICALS Engine The engine starts easily, runs strong with little to no smoke once warm, and sounds fantastic. It feels powerful with a good throttle response. A healthy exhaust note emanates from the rear of the car, and the engine stays cool under use, showing strong oil pressure and temperature. Transmission The car shifts easily with good synchros tested from our drive out to photograph the car. Brakes And Suspension The brakes bite when prompted with no warping, fading, or pulling of any kind. The suspension is excellent with quick, tight turn-in, supplely absorbing bumps while still firm during cornering. Tires The tires are the proper Michelin XWX and appear to be from 2012. Despite their age, they show solid side walls and ample tread. 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4 LBI Limited If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1961 Maserati 3500 GT Vignale

    After difficult financial years and a large budget for racing, Maserati urgently needed an attractive road car at the end of the 1950s to get back into the black. This was achieved with the 3500 GT Coupé, which was first presented at the Geneva Show in 1957. It featured a modified version of the six-cylinder engine from the successful 350S and was initially equipped with 12-inch drum brakes and a Salisbury rear axle. It was an exciting combination of a powerful engine with a sporty yet comfortable chassis. Customers demanded an open-top version of the Type 3500 GT, and Maserati commissioned Frua and Touring to produce a design study. The race was won by a third party, however, and Maserati opted for the Vignale body, drawn by Giovanni Michelotti. From 1959-1964, a total of only 242 examples were produced. This example was delivered on 18.01.1961 to the Italian Giovanni Mori in the colors Grigio Metallizzato and leather Connolly Marrone. In the name and on behalf of a well-known Italian collector, a complete restoration was commissioned at Luigino Tommasin's Quality Cars near Padua. Maserati expert Dr. Adolfo Orsi was consulted to guide the restoration. The extensive restoration was documented with invoices and pictures. The car subsequently made its debut at the Villa d'Este Concours in 2010. This Vignale Spyder has now been registered with our customer base in Germany for approximately 10 years.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright After difficult financial years and a large budget for racing, Maserati urgently needed an attractive road car at the end of the 1950s to get back into the black. This was achieved with the 3500 GT Coupé, which was first presented at the Geneva Show in 1957. It featured a modified version of the six-cylinder engine from the successful 350S and was initially equipped with 12-inch drum brakes and a Salisbury rear axle. It was an exciting combination of a powerful engine with a sporty yet comfortable chassis. Customers demanded an open-top version of the Type 3500 GT, and Maserati commissioned Frua and Touring to produce a design study. The race was won by a third party, however, and Maserati opted for the Vignale body, drawn by Giovanni Michelotti. From 1959-1964, a total of only 242 examples were produced. This example was delivered on 18.01.1961 to the Italian Giovanni Mori in the colors Grigio Metallizzato and leather Connolly Marrone. In the name and on behalf of a well-known Italian collector, a complete restoration was commissioned at Luigino Tommasin's Quality Cars near Padua. Maserati expert Dr. Adolfo Orsi was consulted to guide the restoration. The extensive restoration was documented with invoices and pictures. The car subsequently made its debut at the Villa d'Este Concours in 2010. This Vignale Spyder has now been registered with our customer base in Germany for approximately 10 years.

  • 1958-jaguar-xk-150-s-ots

    Released in 1957, this successor to the legendary XK140 absolutely raised the bar in terms of standards in luxury and performance. The model came with a powerful six-cylinder 3.4-litre engine, good for 250 hp in the exclusive ‘S’ version. The XK150 introduced all-round disc brakes for the first time, a development that put Jaguar on the map with five consecutive Le Mans victories. These refinements gave the XK150 not only speed, but also the braking power and precision befitting a true racing icon.At the time, the XK150 S was the ultimate culmination of Jaguar's years of racing experience and technological innovation. To match the brutal power of the ‘C-type’ engine, the XK150 S received three SU HD8 carburettors, a lighter flywheel and a sharper camshaft, good for a breathtaking driving experience. A limited edition of just 846 examples of the open two-seater in left-hand drive. This combination of rarity and engineering mastery make the XK150 S a coveted classic.This particular XK150 S OTS, meticulously restored to its original 1958 specifications, is a rare find. For the first time shown here at Brussels again since the complete nut&bolt restoration, completely to the original specifications as it left the factory on 12 August 1958. Fully ‘matching numbers and colours’ in stunning Cream over Red, with a black hood and overdrive manual transmission.

  • 1957 Maserati 200SI by Fantuzzi

    WINDS OF CHANGE In 1955, Maserati began a new phase of racing sports car production, segueing away from the aging A6GCS/53 and A6G/54. While the time-honored inline six-cylinder engine was retained as the basis for the 3-liter 300S, that engine was modified into a twin-plug four-cylinder variant with two different displacements of 1.5 and 2 liters, resulting in the respective 150S and 200S models. Both racecars were clothed in sensuous open coachwork by Medardo Fantuzzi that was characterized by sweeping fender lines, a protruding small-mouth grille, and a trailing head fairing, lending the cars an aesthetic appeal worthy of their competition-bred mechanicals. Despite some early teething problems, the 200S was piloted to a 2nd-place finish at the 1956 Gran Premio di Bari and an overall victory at the Gran Premio di Roma by the famed Jean Behra, and Stirling Moss and Cesare Perdisa finished 2nd overall at the 1956 Supercortemaggiore at Monza. In 1957, the FIA introduced new Appendix C regulations that compelled Maserati to modify the 200S with a full-width windscreen, two functioning doors, and provision for a spare wheel, after which the model was rechristened as the 200SI (with the suffix standing for Sport Internazionale). Later cars featured 2.5-liter engines and were renamed as the 250S, after which many of the original 2-liter cars were privately upgraded to 250S-specification engines. By the end of production in 1957, approximately just 28 examples of all the 200 and 250-spec chassis were built, and these cars remain prized by collectors for their high-revving, torque-happy performance and voluptuous coachwork cues. Ideal for enjoyment at vintage racing and touring events, these unique racing spyders represent a golden age in the evolution of the Trident, when boutique hand-built production resulted in some of the most striking European sports-racers ever conceived. GENTLEMEN PREFER REDS Benefitting from 14 years of fastidious care by the current caretaker, this beautifully presented 200SI is one of only a handful of cars that retain a correct 2-liter engine, resulting in a highly desirable state of authenticity. Chassis number 2412 completed factory assembly in February 1957, finished in rosso paint over black upholstered seats. Imported to the United States by the well-known Chicago-based dealer Harry Woodnorth, the Maserati was sold new to the legendary American racing privateer “Gentleman” Jim Kimberly, who was the scion of the Kimberly-Clark fortune (responsible for such household products as Kleenex tissues). A strong proponent of amateur racing, Kimberly was an early member and eventual president of the SCCA who went on to become the 1954 SCCA C-Modified class champion with his 4.5-liter Ferrari. Kimberly had the 200SI repainted in his signature shade of Kimberly Red, a color he had formulated with the help of none other than GM design legend Harley Earl, and which he applied to most of the sport-racing Ferraris and Maseratis that he raced. The 200SI then debuted in competition at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March 1957, with Ted Boynton, Kimberly, and famed journalist/racing driver Denise McCluggage sharing driving duties. Unfortunately, 2412 was forced to retire because of a gearbox failure after 58 laps. The Maserati made three additional starts in 1957, all at Elkhart Lake, and during the last of these races Kimberly was joined by the accomplished Jack McAfee. During 1958, chassis number 2412 started seven events, including the Grand Prix of Cuba in February, and the 12 Hours of Sebring a month later. Yet despite Kimberly’s best efforts, the 200SI struggled to finish these races due to various mechanical issues. Driver Jay Middleton actually experienced the most success during this time, finishing 9th in class at Elkhart Lake in June 1958, and 3rd overall at the same track a month later. In May 1958 Kimberly consigned the Maserati back to Harry Woodnorth, to sell for him and ensure the car found its next caretaker. While exact ownership history during the 1960s is currently unknown, by the early 1970s the car was owned by William Baker of Illinois. In December 1976 the 200SI was sold to Dr. Elliot Siegel of Chicago, and he went on to retain possession until November 1993, accounting for 17 years of dedicated single-owner care. Acquired at that time by Jay Jessup of Charlottesville, Virginia, the Maserati was immediately inspected by Mike DePudja of Denver, Colorado, for the purpose of an extensive restoration, which was documented with photos and invoices now available on file. This work included replacing the original body panels with reproduction coachwork in proper aluminum alloy, as the owner intended to use the SI in vintage events but was keen to preserve the Fantuzzi body (the original panels are separately included in the sale). Upon completion of the refurbishment, Mr. Jessup enjoyed the car in the 2000 Monterey Historic Races. In January 2005 the Maserati was acquired by Dr. Wolf Zweifler of Germany, and as demonstrated by further invoices he retained Tommaso Gelmini’s GPS Classic in Soragna, Italy, to maintain the car and prepare it for event use, including the 2005 Mille Miglia Storica. A year later, following a documented inspection by marque expert Steve Hart, the 200SI was sold to enthusiast Nick Colonna, who entered the car in a host of events through early 2009, including the Shell Maserati Historic Challenge, the Cavallino Classic, and the Monterey Historics. During his ownership the car was carefully maintained by Bert Skidmore’s Intrepid Motorsports of Reno, Nevada. Acquired by the consignor in October 2009, the Maserati has continued to enjoy fastidious care over the last 14 years, including an engine rebuild by Mike DePudja from 2013 to 2014. The 200SI has not been used in any vintage racing events since the engine rebuild, suggesting that the car is well-positioned for a fresh chapter in its competition career. Chassis number 2412 remains eligible for major events including the Mille Miglia Storica, the California Mille, the Colorado Grand, and the Monterey Historics, and it is equally suitable for presentation at high-level concours d’elegance and marque gatherings. It promises its future caretaker the considerable thrill of blasting through twisting vintage circuits, or the rapture of admiring its beguiling curves. 1957 Maserati 200SI by Fantuzzi RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

    BMW launched the Type 503 at the IAA in 1955 as an elegant touring car and more comfortable counterpart to the 507 Roadster. At a price of almost DM 30,000, the car was even more expensive than the BMW 507 and therefore only affordable for extremely well-heeled customers. As with the 507, the body was designed by industrial designer Albrecht Graf Goertz. From December 1957 to May 1960, a total of 193 Type 503s (convertible and coupé) were built in the second series, of which 134 were produced as coupés. The vehicle offered here comes from the family estate of a Norwegian shipping company. The original leather is still intact. According to the available documents, the vehicle has a total mileage of only 85,251 km. According to the available invoice documentation, the technology has been extensively overhauled. In addition, the car impresses with its elegant colour combination and amazing driving performance for a vehicle from the 1950s. A unique opportunity to acquire one of the rare BMW 503 Coupé of the second series in a fantastically preserved original condition!

  • 1985 Audi Sport quattro S1 E2

    APEX PREDATOR Group B is often hailed as the golden era of rallying, producing some of the most powerful rally cars to ever take to a special stage and fostering a previously unheard-of level of development and innovation. No car or manufacturer exemplified that better than Audi and its game-changing quattro. The Ingolstadt outfit is credited with bringing four-wheel drive to the rally stage, and its revolutionary design delivered no fewer than three Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ World Championships by 1984. But while it held the advantage over rear-drive competition, the car was also overweight and nose heavy. In an effort to stay ahead of its rivals—development of Lancia’s S4 having begun in 1983—Audi introduced the Sport quattro in 1984. Despite its prodigious power output, the shorter-wheelbase car was difficult to handle and drivers struggled. Eventual 1984 World Champion Stig Blomqvist even avoided using the new car until he had one hand on the trophy. The situation led to the development of what is widely accepted to be one of the most fearsomely powerful and ferociously quick rally cars of the golden era: the Audi quattro S1 E2. The new car made use of the same fIve-cylinder 2,110-cc alloy block with a 20-valve aluminium head mated to a single vast KKK turbocharger and was capable of producing a colossal 550 horsepower—among the highest of any Group B rally car. Coupled with lightweight carbon-Kevlar composite bodywork and four-wheel drive, the quattro S1 E2 could hit 160 km/h in a blistering 8.9 seconds. In the words of Walter Röhrl: “the engine was always blowing off pressure and banging explosions into the countryside. No car was like that”. Power aside, the E2’s greatest achievement was much improved weight distribution and a slimming regimen that saw it tip the scales at around 1,100 kilograms. Engineers moved many of the heavier components—including the radiator, fans, and even the alternator—to the rear of the car, while the wild bodywork and vast front and rear wings that became the car’s trademark were shaped by wind tunnel testing and greatly improved total downforce. In total, just 20 examples of this legendary rally weapon would leave Audi’s Ingolstadt works. ON THE LOOSE Chassis 018 was the 18th of 20 Audi Sport quattro S1 E2s built and is recorded on an Audi Sport document (on file) as being registered “IN-NR-43” in Ingolstadt on 12 February 1986 with a note that it was built specifically for the Greek (Acropolis) rally.. As documented in Reinhard Klein’s definitive Group B – The Owner’s Edition, IN-NR-43 was entered in the 1986 Rallye de Portugal, driven by two-time WRC (World Rally Championship) champion Walter Röhrl. Excitement for the event was tempered by concern at the Sintra stage—previously a night-time section—being run in daylight, with huge crowds expected to line the course, and a usually reserved Markku Alén even appealed for people to steer clear of the danger. A more pragmatic Röhrl had been quizzed on the involvement of spectators a year earlier and had said: “They are only bushes to us—only trees; if we think these are people, we cannot drive”. Röhrl found his pace from the off, leading the first stage on equal footing with Alén and his Lancia Delta S4 despite a chilling near miss in which a spectator ran across the road in front of the charging quattro. The second stage resulted in Röhrl losing ground to the Lancia S4s and Peugeot T-16s, and by the end of the much longer third stage he had consolidated his position running 5th overall behind the three Works Lancias and the Peugeot of Juha Kankkunen. The rally was cut short by Joaquim Santos’ tragic accident. In the immediate aftermath all Works teams withdrew from the event as a mark of respect for those lost. Audi withdrew from the entire Championship, with this outing for chassis 018 marking the manufacturer’s final competitive entry in Group B. It was subsequently sold to Sweden. A PHOENIX RISING The Group B era of rallying encouraged the development of some of the most exciting machines in motorsport and provided a spectacle that was never to be equalled—but this thrilling period of competition was all too brief. In many ways the series flew too close to the sun, the unchecked arms race of peak performance and spectator involvement proving a deadly combination. Some Group B machines, such as Audi’s all-conquering Sport quattro S1 E2, found themselves without a home when the formula was outlawed in 1986, while others, including the E2’s would-be successor, the quattro RS 002, would be abandoned during development and never turn a wheel in anger. With the advent of Group A as the WRC’s primary category, the only other plausible places for these beasts to compete were hill climbs or the European Rallycross Championship, and scores of former Group B rally weapons—including chassis 018—were deployed into the fiercely competitive and crowd-pleasing formula. Fascinatingly, the rally exiles would be developed beyond even the extremes of Group B, such was the sprint-based formula in deference to the endurance format of rallying. Like many of its contemporaries, chassis 018 was refined and modified for Rallycross competition, where it was briefly campaigned by Anders Carlsson. Freed from the shackles of prior homologation, numerous cosmetic and mechanical modifications were made to tailor the car to the short and frenetic circuits that made up the championship. Chasiss 018 then took part in the 1989 and 1990 Race Of Champions, before being acquired by the Race Of Champions co-founder in 1991. Conceived to showcase the very best rally talent and later expanded to include leading lights from all disciplines of motorsport, the event’s high-octane demonstrations have for more than 30 years delivered a spectacle that appeals to every true motorsport fan by pitting some of the world's best drivers from a variety of disciplines and nationalities against one another. This very Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 became an integral part of that vision, playing a headline role at the 1989 Race Of Champions, held at the Nürburgring, and the 1990 Race Of Champions event in Barcelona. During those two events chassis 018 was driven by Björn Waldegård, Walter Röhrl, Ari Vatanen, Hannu Mikkola, Stig Blomqvist, Timo Salonen, Juha Kankkunen, Miki Biasion, and Carlos Sainz—in short, every World Rally Champion from 1979 to 1990. The car is accompanied by a bonnet (front hood) that has been signed by every one of the luminaries on that list, with the exception of Kankkunen (who had previously signed the side of the car instead!). This significant quattro arguably became the most recognisable car to feature in the Race Of Champions, demonstrated in no fewer than 13 events everywhere from Bangkok and Beijing to Miami and Barbados. While in current ownership the quattro has been prepared and maintained by former Audi Sport engineer Karl Hasenbilcher. Today, chassis 018 presents in fine mechanical fettle, having largely been preserved for the past three decades in the same specification in which Walter Röhrl, Stig Blomqvist, Hannu Mikkola, Ari Vatanen etc drove the car in ROC 1989 and 1990, save for a livery change. It must be noted that there are some significant deviations from its original Group B specification, including a replacement engine block (iron) which in 2021 benefited from a complete rebuild at the hands of Audi Sport’s legendary engineer Karl Hasenbilcher. Due to the complexities of the car’s unique current set-up, it is strongly recommended that interested parties speak with an RM Sotheby’s car specialist and ideally arrange for an in-person viewing. In total, just 20 examples of Audi’s outrageous Sport quattro S1 E2 were ever built, each a shining, flame-spitting beacon from the dying days of the last great epoch of rallying. Of the few S1 E2s to have become available, this car is arguably the most well-known to recent generations of rally fans, and in our opinion is the most exciting Group B restoration prospect for many years. Its next custodian will have the opportunity to either keep the car as it has been known and run in the Race Of Champions, or to return it to Works-standard Group B configuration. 1985 Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

    The 911 Carrera 2.7RS was the ultimate iteration of the 911 in 1973 and remains one of the most sought-after models of the air-cooled 911s. The 2.7 RS was the first 911 to adopt the Carrera name, honouring Porsche’s success at the Carrera Panamericana races during the 1950’s and the first of many stripped out Porsche Road cars to bear the RS denomination which stands for Rennsport or motor racing in German. The Carrera 2.7 Rs was created in 1973 as a homologation special for the Group 4 FIA rally specification. The engine was upgraded from 2.4 to 2.7 litre and fitted with Bosch fuel injection increasing power to a claimed 210bhp which propelled the car onto a top speed of 150 mph. The car proved an instant success in competition with many notable results. The Porsche 911 Carrera upgraded to 2.7 RS specification offered at Autostorico is finished in Grand Prix White with Black and White Houndstooth interior trim. First registered in France on 1st July 1973 the car remained in Europe where its Swiss competition passport confirms it competed in 2000 Hockenheim – Slalom Interlaken, 2000 Vareno race circuit at Vareno de’ Melegari in Italy and 2003 Hockenheim – Glodpokal Rennan. The car was registered in the UK in 2008 (being issued with the correct 1973 dated L plate). Passing through the hands of historic race enthusiast Ivan Dutton who competed in the car and had full HTP FIA papers class GTS22 issued. Specification highlights include Correct 2.7 litre RS 210bhp engine, Bosch 6-stamped mechanical fuel injection, 915 five speed gearbox Porsche Slite lsd; 7:31 final drive (4.43:1) Bilstein dampers. 7 and 8in Fuch alloy wheels.

  • 1980 BMW M1 AHG Studie

    Among the rarest models BMW has ever built and the first to be created entirely under the purview of its elite M division, the M1 is a hand-built homologation special developed in the late-seventies to dominate racing competition. BMW Motorsport initially planned to build enough of the mid-engine coupes to meet the regulation for FIA Group 5; however, rule changes enacted during the car’s protracted development required a minimum of 400 examples be built to meet Group 4 regulations before the car could be homologated for Group 5. Rather than delay the racing program, BMW decided to create a one-make series while it continued further development and ramped up enough production to meet homologation requirements. The Procar BMW M1 Championship was announced in the spring of 1978, along with the official unveiling of the M1 road car. While Procar competition only lasted two seasons, running as a Formula One support series from 1979 to 1980, its popularity was undeniable. With their flared fenders, imposing front spoiler, massive rear wing, and incredible power, the M1’s presence on the racetrack left a lasting impression. Street and competition versions of the M1 were produced in tandem, with around 450 units in total being built from 1978 through 1981. With homologation requirements finally met, the M1 would be campaigned in various world championships, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Intent on using a mid-engine layout, BMW initially contracted Lamborghini to develop the M1 chassis, with the tubular steel spaceframe being devised with input from noted Italian engineer Gianpaolo Dallara. Lamborghini’s ensuing financial struggles delayed development and dissolved the partnership, but a group of disenfranchised engineers from the Italian automaker banded together and founded their own company to complete the work. The final product was impressive, featuring a rigid spaceframe and sophisticated, double-wishbone suspension with adjustable coil springs and Bilstein gas-filled dampers. The precise rack-and-pinion steering was unassisted. Angular fiberglass bodywork by famed designer Giorgetto Giugiaro gave the M1 visual impact commensurate with its performance potential. At the heart of the beast was BMW’s newly developed M88 3,453-cubic-centimeter inline six-cylinder engine, brimming with advancements, including six individual throttle bodies and mechanical fuel injection. In the road car, it produced 277 horsepower at 6,500 rpm, 243 pounds-feet of torque at 5,500 rpm, and an adrenaline-pumping shriek at full throttle. A ZF five-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential put power to pavement. In 1982, after the Procar series ended and production for the M1 ceased, Peter Gartemann, president and owner of the German BMW dealer AHG, decided to create a limited-production design study inspired by the look of the mighty M1 Procars. This option package, called AHG Studie, transformed a standard road-going M1 into the ultimate Procar-style street machine. From the outside, the changes were clear, with aggressive Procar-inspired front and rear spoilers, side skirts, and flared wheel arches. But modifications went well beyond the imposing bodywork. The M1 AHG Studie cars received an adjustable racing suspension and 16-inch three-piece BBS wheels—eight inches wide up front and nine inches at the rear. The engine was uprated to 350 horsepower and mated to a special racing clutch and a new exhaust system. Still very much intended for the street, the interior was upgraded with leather seat inserts in place of the stock cloth ones and additional speakers were added to enhance the stereo system. Further increasing exclusivity, AHG commissioned the renowned German paint shop of Hermann Altmiks to finish each M1 in unique livery as directed by the customer. The cost was astronomical as the modifications were certified by TÜV, the German technical inspection association, requiring extensive testing and approvals. It is believed that no more than 10 examples with the AHG Studie package were created, each one unique. The M1 AHG Studie offered here is believed to be an original AHG M1 Studie, as indicated by markings throughout the body, including the “altmiks lackdesign” signature painted just below the driver-side taillight. According to BMW Classic, chassis 4301090 was built in 1979 and delivered on August 30 of that year to BMW dealer Schneider in Bielefeld, Germany. The original color was White (206). Not much is known about its early history other than that an owner saw fit to invest a considerable sum in modifying it with the AHG Studie package, replete with BMW Motorsport’s iconic tricolor livery. The car would ultimately find its way into the famous Ed Weaver Collection in Dalton, Georgia, where it resided until 1995. In 2011, it was purchased by renowned collector Don Davis. Soon thereafter, it was acquired by the AE Collection of Paul Walker and Roger Rodas in California, known for its rare Japanese and European sports cars. The car was acquired in 2014 by a subsequent owner, who had the water pump rebuilt in 2015, and the oil changed, the coolant and brake fluid flushed, the battery and an outer tie-rod replaced, and the valve cover repainted in 2018. The California-based consignor acquired the car in February 2021. It has been sparingly driven its entire life, showing only 6,821 kilometers on the odometer at cataloguing time. One the most exclusive BMWs ever produced, this sparingly driven AHG-modified M1 is even more compelling than the already stellar standard model. With stunning Procar-inspired bodywork, a one-off tricolor livery, and increased performance from the uprated M88 engine, it is surely among the most attractive and collectable examples of its type. 1980 BMW M1 AHG Studie RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso by Scaglietti 1

    Introduced at the 1962 Paris Salon, Ferrari’s 250 GT/L was undoubtedly one of the most attractive grand touring cars ever built. Intended as a replacement for the 250 GT coupe, the “L” stood for Lusso and featured an all-new interior arrangement highlighted by a revised dash panel and leather upholstery throughout the cabin. Built to cross continents in unrivalled style while cossetting a driver, passenger, and plenty of luggage, it looked simply stunning whilst sitting still and just as beautiful at speed. Mechanically, Ferrari’s Tipo 168 U engine was the ultimate development of the short-block Colombo 3.0-litre V-12, featuring outside-plug ignition and single-cylinder porting that had proven so successful in the 250 Testa Rossa and California Spider. Further improvements were made to the chassis including four-wheel disc brakes, coil-over shock absorbers at all four corners, and a rear Watts linkage that had been perfected on the 250 GTO. While the bodywork itself was designed by Pininfarina, the construction of it was carried out by Scaglietti and it is truly amongst the pair’s very best work. Boasting Ferrari’s now-typical egg-crate grille, its delicately curved fenders gave way to a bright, airy cabin and flowed into a fastback “Kamm tail". Originally owned by jet-set luminaries and celebrities, such as Steve McQueen, the Lusso was built in a modest quantity of just 350 examples over roughly two years of production. The GT/L has since evolved into one of Maranello’s most collectable production models, essentially the final and most developed evolution of the revered 250 GT lineage. The Lusso offered here, chassis number 5913, was completed as a left-hand-drive model for the United States market in Grigio Argento over Nera on 13 July 1964, and later that month delivered for sale to Luigi Chinetti Motors, the prominent distributor and importer in New York City. Its subsequent history is unknown, but it made its way West and in June 1987 was offered for sale in the Los Angeles Times by MDR Enterprises of Marina Del Rey, California, by which time, like so many Ferraris of the era, it had been finished in red with black interior. It is next known to have been owned in 1999 by Mel Farrar, owner of Farrar Precision Engineering in Sheffield, England. in whose long-term, loving ownership it bore the cherished registrations “460 GTO” and, later, “MEL 8”. It is believed that the car was restored in England for Mr Farrar in the late-1990s, in Rosso Chiaro over Crema interior. The car would be proudly and widely shown by him at several Ferrari Owners' Club of England national meetings and concours events through the 2000s, finally being offered for sale from his ownership in 2013. Subsequently it was purchased around 2016 by an owner in London, in whose ownership it was driven in the Rallye Padre-Figlio in Monaco in October 2018. In 2019 the car was issued its Ferrari Classiche certification with accompanying Red Book, noting that it retains its matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox, and bodywork. Further improving its credentials, it has recently been refinished to its striking and handsome original colour of Grigio Argento, retaining the excellent tan interior fitted in its previous restoration. Receipts are on file for the new finish as well as for additional mechanical sorting, including the fitment of a new balanced clutch and flywheel in 2019 and assorted general mechanical repairs in 2023, both undertaken by Joe Macari in London. Chassis number 5913 also benefits from a full rebuild of its matching-numbers engine, having been completed in the autumn of 2024. A wonderful Lusso to either exhibit with pride, or to drive and enjoy, this marvellous example is fitting of the most discerning tifosi. 1964 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GTS

    Club Sport engine installed at Porsche, period factory correspondence, four decades of single family ownership, exceedingly rare in the US. Highlights of this Example One of 59 GTS Porsche Factory Examples Long-Term Single Family Ownership Porsche Updated to 270hp GTS “Club Sport” Specifications After Delivery Preservation Grade Example with Original Purchase Documentation History of the Porsche 924 GTS Unless you’ve been living in a world bereft of motorsports engagement, the Porsche Carrera Turbo will be known to virtually anyone familiar with performance excellence. But Porsche did not limit their prodigious engineering capabilities exclusively to the 911 architecture. Turbocharging technology found its way into several experimental Porsche engineering concepts, eventually arriving in one of the most important volume production Porsches in the history of their development, the 924. Originally conceived as a replacement for the 914, the 924 made its debut in 1975, selling a remarkable 150,000 units before concluding production in 1988. Originally conceived as a partnership with Volkswagen, the changing times and fuel crisis of the early 70s abruptly altered that union, leaving Porsche to produce and market the 924 as an affordable performance car without VW support. For many, the 924 introduced Porsche ownership to a new generation of enthusiasts, combining excellent road manners and reliability in a car that could be readily serviced and easily maintained. The unique styling was also highly celebrated particularly in that it echoed Porsche’s water-cooled halo car; the 928. Though the initial 924 was celebrated for its combination of fuel-economy and reliability, performance officially woke up in 1980 when a KKK Turbocharger was added, making it a true performance car on a par with the Porsche name. Offered for just a few years, the 1980 model Turbo saw US production delivery of just 3,440 units. Rarer still and even more desirable, the Carrera GT was yet another step up in the performance lineage. In the initial GT iteration, 406 factory 924 GTs were produced. The GT model was lightened by 330 pounds, lowered, and fitted with a 210 hp engine. The body was extensively modified to allow for wider 7- and 8-inch Fuchs wheels and tires, wider front and rear track, riveted rear fenders and smoothly flared front fenders. The resultant configuration was both visually impressive and quite capable in the performance arena. Rarer still, the GTS was offered in 1981 distinguished by plastic covered rectangular headlights and a distinct front air intake design. According to expert Roy Smith, as documented in his book, 59 GTS examples were factory built. The GTS engine was reworked to 245 hp and the car further lightened with fiberglass body features and Plexiglas windows. The final and most sought-after iteration was the “Club Sport” GTS. This included a 270 hp engine boasting a larger air-to-air intercooler at 1.1 Bar achieving 60 mph in 5.2 seconds with a 160 mph top speed. A mere 15 GTS Club Sport versions were assembled at the factory. History of this Porsche Carrera GTS This example is one of just 59 Carrera GTS models built. Completed July 3, 1981, it was delivered to the first owner, located in Germany. Shortly after taking delivery, the first owner commissioned Porsche to upgrade this GTS with the highly desirable Porsche factory 270 hp Club Sport engine, installed March 3, 1982. Porsche invoiced service documentation included with the car, dated March 3, 1982, describes the installation of the 270hp Club Sport engine. Further records for service while under original ownership indicate May 4, 1982, with 1,378 kms and May 26, 1982, with 2,057 kms. The father of the current owner purchased this car in October 1984 where it was dispatched via sea shipment out of Stuttgart, Emden, through to port of San Francisco, CA, arriving December 14, 1984. This Porsche has since remained in Northern California under the same family ownership for the past 39 years. At the time of delivery, the odometer indicated 7,479 kilometers (4,647 miles). The father and son single family owners have since retained the car with preservation in mind, with a keen focus on preserving the original exterior features, the interior materials, and the unique body design details that make this GTS such a special part of Porsche history. Numerous original purchase documentation accompanies this rare example currently indicating a mere 8,800 kilometers (5,500 miles). Current Condition and Features of this GTS Today this rare and highly desirable Carrera GTS represents a fantastic opportunity for a preservation minded racing enthusiast to engage in a truly unique performance car. The vivid factory applied red paint is glossy throughout with overall finishes that are reflective of production quality from this era. Metal body surfaces have been digitally metered returning single digit numbers consistent with factory applied paint. There are a few minor areas that show signs of age in the paint finish, all of which are understandable given the historic preservation-based nature of this car. Rubber gaskets, seals, and anodized window trim are all in excellent condition. The handsome 15” staggered width Fuchs and Pirelli tires finish off the purposeful look and stance of the car. The distinctive offset NACA intake turbo hood and unique GTS front bumper and grille, combine with the wide GT body features to deliver an impressive statement, particularly in Guards Red. The glass, plexiglass side windows, body trim, emblems, lenses, and exterior body features are in excellent condition. The overall visual condition of the car is cohesive and impressive, especially considering the unique history, rarity of construction, and the uprated Club Sport 270 hp engine. The black factory configured interior features original materials and components which have been thoughtfully preserved including the dashboard, rare cloth covered racing seats, unique door panels, factory instrumentation, and Autoflug racing seat belts. The lightweight racing seats are in excellent condition showing only minor signs of use to the driver’s side seat. The interior is very much reflective of a preservation level Porsche that has been modestly enjoyed while still retaining a high level of cosmetic excellence. Even the dashboard, often cracked or dulled from excessive sun exposure, is in excellent condition. The rear storage compartment is clean and tidy, displaying the original carpet and correct factory seat belt mounting points. Every interior detail is consistent with factory original construction from the 5-speed manual shifter to the triple gauge center cluster (Bar, Oil temp, Volts) and ventilation controls, all of which remain in excellent preserved condition. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment are clean, nicely detailed and representative of factory correct condition, proper services, and generally thoughtful care. The engine bay remains remarkably stock with factory components properly in place. The engine finishes are correct as are the largely correct mounting hardware and various hoses, service warning stickers, and filter housings. A Mobil1 oil container has been cleverly and discretely fashioned as a catch can. The undercarriage is as you might expect from an original and unmodified car, showing no signs of structural damage to the floor or support structure and remarkably original, clean surfaces, further confirming the 8,500 kilometers. Because this series car was designed specifically for racing use only, it is offered on bill of sale only and is ineligible for California road use. This car is accompanied by numerous original purchase documents, a spare set of wheels with Proxes racing tires, two additional spare wheels, a space saver spare tire, car cover, tools and tool roll, factory first aid kit, jack and safety triangle, tow hook, a spare set of Porsche crest satin black center caps, a spare set of Plexiglas side windows, a set of Schroth seat belts in boxes, reprinted copies of GT and GTS driver’s manuals, and various other spare parts. This unique Porsche 924 Turbo Carrera GTS with rare “Club Sport” engine upgrade has been thoughtfully preserved under single family ownership since delivered new. The exceptional preservation and excellent condition capture a critical moment in Porsche history when Turbo Carrera, Club Sport, and rarity in production converged to deliver a very special and captivating example of Porsche excellence. 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GTS Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The GTS engine was reworked to 245 hp and the car further lightened with fiberglass body features and Plexiglas windows. The final and most sought-after iteration was the “Club Sport” GTS. This included a 270 hp engine boasting a larger air-to-air intercooler at 1.1 Bar achieving 60 mph in 5.2 seconds with a 160 mph top speed. A mere 15 GTS Club Sport versions were assembled at the factory. History of this Porsche Carrera GTS This example is one of just 59 Carrera GTS models built. Completed July 3, 1981, it was delivered to the first owner, located in Germany. Shortly after taking delivery, the first owner commissioned Porsche to upgrade this GTS with the highly desirable Porsche factory 270 hp Club Sport engine, installed March 3, 1982. Porsche invoiced service documentation included with the car, dated March 3, 1982, describes the installation of the 270hp Club Sport engine. Further records for service while under original ownership indicate May 4, 1982, with 1,378 kms and May 26, 1982, with 2,057 kms. The father of the current owner purchased this car in October 1984 where it was dispatched via sea shipment out of Stuttgart, Emden, through to port of San Francisco, CA, arriving December 14, 1984. This Porsche has since remained in Northern California under the same family ownership for the past 39 years. At the time of delivery, the odometer indicated 7,479 kilometers (4,647 miles). The father and son single family owners have since retained the car with preservation in mind, with a keen focus on preserving the original exterior features, the interior materials, and the unique body design details that make this GTS such a special part of Porsche history. Numerous original purchase documentation accompanies this rare example currently indicating a mere 8,800 kilometers (5,500 miles). Current Condition and Features of this GTS Today this rare and highly desirable Carrera GTS represents a fantastic opportunity for a preservation minded racing enthusiast to engage in a truly unique performance car. The vivid factory applied red paint is glossy throughout with overall finishes that are reflective of production quality from this era. Metal body surfaces have been digitally metered returning single digit numbers consistent with factory applied paint. There are a few minor areas that show signs of age in the paint finish, all of which are understandable given the historic preservation-based nature of this car. Rubber gaskets, seals, and anodized window trim are all in excellent condition. The handsome 15” staggered width Fuchs and Pirelli tires finish off the purposeful look and stance of the car. The distinctive offset NACA intake turbo hood and unique GTS front bumper and grille, combine with the wide GT body features to deliver an impressive statement, particularly in Guards Red. The glass, plexiglass side windows, body trim, emblems, lenses, and exterior body features are in excellent condition. The overall visual condition of the car is cohesive and impressive, especially considering the unique history, rarity of construction, and the uprated Club Sport 270 hp engine. The black factory configured interior features original materials and components which have been thoughtfully preserved including the dashboard, rare cloth covered racing seats, unique door panels, factory instrumentation, and Autoflug racing seat belts. The lightweight racing seats are in excellent condition showing only minor signs of use to the driver’s side seat. The interior is very much reflective of a preservation level Porsche that has been modestly enjoyed while still retaining a high level of cosmetic excellence. Even the dashboard, often cracked or dulled from excessive sun exposure, is in excellent condition. The rear storage compartment is clean and tidy, displaying the original carpet and correct factory seat belt mounting points. Every interior detail is consistent with factory original construction from the 5-speed manual shifter to the triple gauge center cluster (Bar, Oil temp, Volts) and ventilation controls, all of which remain in excellent preserved condition. Under the hood, the engine and engine compartment are clean, nicely detailed and representative of factory correct condition, proper services, and generally thoughtful care. The engine bay remains remarkably stock with factory components properly in place. The engine finishes are correct as are the largely correct mounting hardware and various hoses, service warning stickers, and filter housings. A Mobil1 oil container has been cleverly and discretely fashioned as a catch can. The undercarriage is as you might expect from an original and unmodified car, showing no signs of structural damage to the floor or support structure and remarkably original, clean surfaces, further confirming the 8,500 kilometers. Because this series car was designed specifically for racing use only, it is offered on bill of sale only and is ineligible for California road use. This car is accompanied by numerous original purchase documents, a spare set of wheels with Proxes racing tires, two additional spare wheels, a space saver spare tire, car cover, tools and tool roll, factory first aid kit, jack and safety triangle, tow hook, a spare set of Porsche crest satin black center caps, a spare set of Plexiglas side windows, a set of Schroth seat belts in boxes, reprinted copies of GT and GTS driver’s manuals, and various other spare parts. This unique Porsche 924 Turbo Carrera GTS with rare “Club Sport” engine upgrade has been thoughtfully preserved under single family ownership since delivered new. The exceptional preservation and excellent condition capture a critical moment in Porsche history when Turbo Carrera, Club Sport, and rarity in production converged to deliver a very special and captivating example of Porsche excellence.
