1996 Toyota MR2 Spider by Technocraft
This is a 1996 Toyota MR2 Spider, one of only approximately 88 ever produced, and an even rarer gem thanks to its factory-equipped 5-speed manual transmission. Unlike the standard SW20 second-generation MR2s, which were available as coupes or with removable roof panels, the Spider was a full factory-built convertible, crafted under the meticulous guidance of Toyota’s Technocraft division, also known as TRD Japan. This wasn’t merely a roof modification—it was a fully engineered variant with a unique identity, representing the pinnacle of Toyota’s mid-90s sports car creativity. With relatively low mileage for its age and minimal modifications, this particular MR2 Spider offers a rare chance to own a true collector’s piece, a car that stands out for its rarity, pedigree, and pure driving enjoyment. The exterior is finished in striking Lucerne Silver accented by a tasteful blue stripe, complemented by the Spider-exclusive black-and-blue cloth interior that highlights the car’s sporty yet refined character. The folding black convertible soft top, while requiring minor repair, adds to the allure of open-air driving in a vehicle that remains virtually unmatched in the MR2 lineup. Imported from Japan and featuring right-hand drive, this example displays an odometer reading of 81,465 kilometers, or approximately 50,620 miles, showcasing its limited use and careful stewardship. The car comes equipped with a host of factory-installed features, including 15-inch OEM wheels, iconic pop-up headlights, Spider-exclusive upholstery, a spare tire, and fully functional air conditioning. The Spider’s unique design extends beyond its soft top to the engine lid and rear profile, which remains clean and spoiler-free—a subtle but defining characteristic exclusive to this rare variant. Under the hood, the MR2 Spider is powered by the naturally aspirated 2.0-liter 3S-GE inline-four engine, producing roughly 180 horsepower and 141 lb-ft of torque, all routed through a factory S54 5-speed manual transmission to the rear wheels. The mid-engine layout, celebrated for its perfect weight distribution, combined with the precision of the SW20 chassis, offers a driving experience that has captivated enthusiasts for decades. This is a car that rewards driver engagement, whether carving through canyon roads or enjoying spirited weekend drives, and its strong enthusiast following ensures a passionate community for support and camaraderie. This example retains much of its original character while featuring thoughtful enhancements for an even more refined driving experience. Equipment highlights include power windows and locks, power-adjustable mirrors, a power-operated antenna, fog lights, and the all-important pop-up headlights that defined an era. Modifications remain subtle and tasteful, with an aftermarket shift knob, shift boot, and e-brake boot in black with blue stitching, aftermarket pedals, and an OEM Toyota CD/cassette stereo. Additionally, a SealSkin outdoor weather car cover is included, reflecting the owner’s dedication to preserving this rare MR2. As with any classic vehicle, there are a few known flaws, all consistent with a car of its age. These include minor paint chips and scratches, a soft top needing repair at the rear attachment points, light surface rust on the rain guard beneath the engine lid.
1998 Vector M12
This is the very rare 1998 Vector M12, chassis number 011, the only orange example ever produced. Originally this car was painted orange, and featured a bright blue interior, in order to match the owner’s Soccer club, which he managed. After changing ownership, the car was fitted with a new black interior, a new steering wheel, and a new exhaust system. The first production car Gerald Wiegert, the founder of Vector, was able to complete was known as the W8. Vector was able to complete a total of 17 production W8 units, as well as 2 prototypes. Followed by that came the WX-3 & WX-3R, which were one-off prototypes that were both painted to match Wiegert’s Jetski company at the time, Aquajet. During this time, an Indonesian company, ‘MegaTech’ acquired a controlling interest in Vector. After having just debuted the WX-3 & WX3-R prototypes in Geneva in 1993, upon arriving back to the Vector HQ, Wiegert was asked by the Vector board & MegaTech to relinquish control of the company and only assume the role of the company’s designer. Wiegert famously refused and subsequently ordered the Vector HQ to be locked down, literally. Wiegert was later fired by Vector Aeromotive after a long period of refusal to cooperate with the new ownership. Following this, the M12 came along, the first Vector produced under parent company, MegaTech after the acquisition of the company. This Vector model was designed by one of the UK's best-known vehicle designers, Peter Stevens, who is best known for his work on the McLaren F1 and the JaguarSport XJR-15. Being that MegaTech owned Lamborghini at the time, the M12 was based mostly on the Diablo, utilizing a lot of the same mechanical components.

1993 Porsche 911 RS America Brumos 20th Anniversary Edition
This is the one-off 1993 Porsche 911 RS America Brumos 20th Anniversary Edition. In the 1950s, Brundage Motors Inc. was founded by Hubert Brundage, who played a pivotal role in introducing the Volkswagen and Porsche brands to America alongside friend and investor, Glenn H. Curtiss II. By 1954 the company had seven dealers and were quite successful. The Brumos (BRUndage MOtorS) Porsche Car Corporation was set up as a Porsche retailer and distributor in 1959, and by the year 1964, the empire would expand to work with 60 VW dealers and 38 Porsche dealers. After Brundage’s unfortunate passing in 1964, much of the business handled by Porsche distributor, Johnny Von Neumann. The dealership portion of Brumos was later acquired by American race car driver, Peter Gregg. Gregg was a four-time winner of the 24 Hours of Daytona from 1973-1978. During this time, Gregg and American race car driver Hurley Haywood popularized the red, white and blue livery. Gregg remained in-charge of the Brumos dealership operations from 1966 until 1980, and Von Neumann retained the distributorship sector until 1969. In 1980, when Gregg passed away, his wife Deborah continued the business, and Dan Davis (Winn-Dixie Davis family) took over the dealership in 1990. Sports car racing guru Bob Snodgras was brought in to serve as President and CEO of Brumos Racing. In 2007, Davis took over full control of Brumos. The racing program came to an end in 2013, and the dealer followed in 2015. Davis keeps the Brumos name alive today with @thebrumoscollection museum. This car was built by Brumos in 1993 as a 20th anniversary tribute of their overall win at Daytona in 1973 and 20 years of the Carrera RS model. This is the world’s only 964 customer car built by Brumos. This car was originally constructed in 06/1992 as a standard RS America, and Brumos enhanced it with a Cup Car exhaust system, a ducktail wing, the removal of some components (AC, radio, heat, rear seats), an RSR engine and transmission, plus the iconic livery.

1970 Pontiac One Firebird
This masterpiece shown here is the 1970 Pontiac One Firebird Concept Car, a futuristic vision of what was planned to be the 1999 Pontiac Firebird and it's up for sale! This show car proposal was constructed on the basis of a second-generation Pontiac Firebird, and was designed by General Motors automotive designer, Harry Bentley Bradley, and was constructed by speciality car builder, Dave Crook. Created as a glimpse into the future of the Firebird model, and not intended for production, the designers and engineers involved in the project had the freedom to innovate and go beyond the standard production vehicle requirements in order to create something absolutely spectacular like you see shown here today. The One was developed at an unusual time during a major shift from luxurious styling and impressive performance to fuel efficiency and a major focus on safety mandates, which ultimately resulted in this special show car to not be actually shown all too often. Despite the changing times, this concept was designed to have 6 hood air intakes, skirted rear tires, a 255-horsepower, 350 cubic-inch V8 engine, tan leather seats, a wood grain dashboard, and much more, meaning this spacecraft-looking automobile is actually fully operational, and can be driven out and about on the road! This is something you certainly cannot say about most concept cars from this period in history, however, this particular car is not just some clay mock up or wooden concept, but rather a real deal car that you can get in, enjoy, and drive! In order to give the Pontiac One a more aerodynamic, sleek profile, the windshield was laid back 5 inches, and the roofline was chopped by 3 inches, allowing for a slick, beautiful design which was certainly unprecedented for the time, and still is now.

2004 Covini C6W Geneva Show Car
This is the 2004 Covini C6W Geneva Show Car, or in other words, the world’s only 6-wheeled road legal supercar ever built and it's for sale! The C6W was built by Italian car manufacturer, Covini Engineering, which was started by Ferruccio Covini in the year 1978. The company is located in Castel San Giovanni, Piacenza, and is best known for developing a number of diesel-powered sports cars such as the T46, B24, T40, and C36. Covini’s first ever car built was known as the 4x4 Covini T44, an off-road vehicle with interchangeable panels. Notably, the Covini B24 went on to become the first ever diesel-powered car to reach 200 km/h (124 mph). The C6W project actually began sometime around 1974, but was abandoned due to the inability to find suitable tires that would allow the car to operate correctly. The idea was brought back to life sometime around the 1980s, and by 2003, it was fully revived, and ready to be built. In 2004, this example shown here of the C6W was shown for the very first time at the Geneva Motor Show, and just one year later at the 2005 Salon International de l’Auto, an enhanced and updated version made it’s public debut. The six wheels allow for this roofless machine to offer better handling and braking than a four wheel car. The initial plan called for a limited run of 6-8 cars per year, but all in all, approximately 3 examples were constructed, consisting of the prototype/test bed car, the Silver Geneva show car, and most recently, a red example that was finished around 2016. The tubular steel frame and fiberglass/carbon fiber bodywork for the C6W were completely bespoke and built from scratch, and the 6-wheel design was inspired by the 1976 Tyrrell P34 (Project 34), a six-wheeled formula one race car. The entire project was sponsored by a newspaper called “Al Volante”, and was funded both publicly and privately.
