Some of the highlights and most sought-after vehicles on the docket include, a 2014 McLaren P1, the world’s first hybrid supercar, a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder, one of only 918 hybrid hypercars produced, and a highly desirable 2004 Porsche Carrera GT. Several spectacular Shelby vehicles and big block American muscle cars will also be crossing the auction block, including a 1967 Shelby Cobra 427 CSX 3356, 1962 Shelby Cobra CSX 2032 famously referred to as the “Lance Reventlow Cobra” and an original “survivor” 1970 Plymouth HEMI Superbird with just over 6,000 miles.
