September 23rd on Bring a Trailer and the lineup reads like somebody raided the world’s most enviable garage sale. We’ve got a pair of blue-chip Porsches, a no-reserve Ferrari that should have bidders losing sleep, a stunning old Mercedes droptop, a full Maserati collection from a serious collector, a nearly unridden Italian motorcycle rarity, and a 1948 GMC with a V8 swap that practically smells like hot rod history through the screen. Oh, and a Dodge Aspen Super Coupe showed up just to keep everyone honest. Let’s get into it.
2019 Porsche 911 Speedster Heritage Design
The 911 Speedster is already one of the most emotionally loaded cars Porsche has built in recent memory — a short-run, high-revving send-off to the 991 generation with that signature hump-backed rear deck and a naturally aspirated flat-six that sings. The Heritage Design package layers on period-correct two-tone paint and retro badging that makes it look like it drove straight out of the 1950s, which is either brilliant or too much depending on how you feel about nostalgia. Either way, these are climbing in value and the truly clean ones don’t surface often. Check out this 2019 Porsche 911 Speedster Heritage Design on Bring a Trailer before someone else does.
2015 Ferrari 458 Speciale at No Reserve
No reserve on a 458 Speciale. Read that again. The Speciale is widely regarded as one of the finest naturally aspirated Ferraris of the modern era — sharper, lighter, and louder than the standard 458 in all the right ways. With Ferrari having moved on to turbocharged and hybrid powertrains, the window to own one of these high-revving screaming V8 Maranello specials at a fair price is closing fast. Bid on this no-reserve 2015 Ferrari 458 Speciale and let the market do what it does.
1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Cabriolet at No Reserve
The W111 Cabriolet is one of those cars that serious collectors and casual admirers agree on, which is rare. The 3.5-liter V8 variant is the one to have — more power, smoother delivery, and a spec that was top of the range when new. These four-seat open Mercedes are increasingly recognized as genuine blue-chip classics, and a no-reserve offering means the market gets to speak plainly. Don’t miss this no-reserve 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Cabriolet if you’ve ever dreamed of open-air Stuttgart elegance.
The Maserati Collection, from 1600veloce — Auctions Closing Soon!
A curated Maserati collection from a seller with a name like 1600veloce is exactly as promising as it sounds — this isn’t a flipper offloading a problem car, it’s a collector moving a curated stable, and that usually means the cars have been looked after. Multiple Maseratis closing around the same time means you might have to make some hard choices about where your paddle goes. Browse the full Maserati Collection from 1600veloce on Bring a Trailer before the hammer drops — these close soon.
3,600-Mile 2019 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach
The GT2 RS Weissach is the most extreme street-legal 911 Porsche has ever built, full stop, and 3,600 miles on one means somebody bought this weapon and mostly just admired it — which is either a shame or smart preservation depending on your philosophy. The Weissach package sheds weight aggressively with magnesium and carbon fiber pieces that turn an already borderline-insane car into something truly stratospheric on track. These numbers are only going one direction over time. See this low-mileage 2019 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Weissach on Bring a Trailer and prepare your budget accordingly.
1,100-Mile 1998 Bimota SB6-R
Bimota built motorcycles the way some ateliers build watches — small numbers, obsessive engineering, prices that make you check the listing twice. The SB6-R was Bimota’s Suzuki-powered halo bike of the late ’90s, wrapped in a chassis that the big Japanese factories simply wouldn’t bother with at that volume. With just 1,100 miles, this one is essentially a time capsule wearing Italian bodywork. Take a look at this 1,100-mile 1998 Bimota SB6-R — you won’t find many cleaner examples anywhere.
350-Powered 1948 GMC FC-101 Five-Window Pickup
A five-window cab on a late-’40s GMC already gives you one of the most handsome truck silhouettes in American history, and whoever dropped a 350 small-block under the hood made sure it actually goes as good as it looks. This is the kind of truck that wins cruise nights without even trying and hauls enough presence to make modern trucks feel anonymous. Old iron with a reliable V8 swap hits a sweet spot between character and usability that’s hard to argue with. Check out this 350-powered 1948 GMC FC-101 Five-Window Pickup on Bring a Trailer if a classic truck with real-world reliability is on your list.
1978 Dodge Aspen Super Coupe
The Aspen Super Coupe is one of Mopar’s more overlooked late-’70s offerings — not a Challenger or a ‘Cuda, but a sporty compact that flew under the radar even when new and has been quietly appreciated by a small but devoted following ever since. Finding a clean one in Super Coupe trim is genuinely uncommon, and the malaise era is getting its due respect in the collector market right now. Have a look at this 1978 Dodge Aspen Super Coupe on Bring a Trailer before someone snaps up this affordable piece of forgotten Mopar history.
Lucas Auto Company Junior Midget w/Parts Collection at No Reserve
No reserve on a piece of American oval-racing history — the Junior Midget racing car is a slice of grassroots motorsport that built more driving talent than most fancy academies ever did. A parts collection included means whoever grabs this gets a running start at keeping it alive and on the track or in the display garage. It’s a left-field lot that speaks directly to racing purists and museum builders alike. Bid on this no-reserve Lucas Auto Company Junior Midget with parts collection and take home something with real racing DNA.
That’s your Wednesday lineup — two Porsches that represent polar opposites of the sports car spectrum, a no-reserve Ferrari that will almost certainly wake some bidders up at 3am, enough Italian flair to fill a showroom, and a GMC pickup that proves the best hot rods wear work clothes. Keep your eyes on BaT today and don’t say we didn’t warn you.
