F355 Spider, 2002 Turbo & a 3,200-Mile 993 Hit BaT Today

F355 Spider, 2002 Turbo & a 3,200-Mile 993 Hit BaT Today

Saturday on Bring a Trailer and the lineup reads like someone raided three different dream garages simultaneously. We’ve got Italian stallions, a rare-as-hens-teeth BMW forced-induction legend, a barely-driven 993-era Porsche, a flat-12 Ferrari that spent a quarter century with one owner, and a 240Z that’s been in the same family since Nixon was in office. Oh, and a Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series with 1,500 miles on it, because apparently someone forgot they owned it. Buckle up.

21k-Mile 1999 Ferrari F355 Spider Serie Fiorano 6-Speed

The Serie Fiorano package is the F355 in its most focused, factory-fettled form — stiffer suspension, Bilstein dampers, and a Fiorano badge that separates the truly committed from the Sunday-drive crowd. Twenty-one thousand miles on a late-production 355 Spider with a rowing-your-own gearbox is a genuinely compelling combination; these Pininfarina drop-tops with the screaming 8,500-rpm V8 are only going one direction in value. Bid on the 1999 Ferrari F355 Spider Serie Fiorano at Bring a Trailer before the crowd wakes up.

1975 BMW 2002 Turbo 5-Speed

The 2002 Turbo was BMW’s first turbocharged production car and one of the most culturally significant performance BMWs ever built — a car so aggressive that the German government asked BMW to cool it on the marketing. Finding one with a 5-speed is a nice modern usability upgrade on what was already a razor-sharp little machine. Values on legitimate 2002 Turbos have climbed steadily as the collector world has caught on to just how rare and historically important these are. Check out the 1975 BMW 2002 Turbo listing on Bring a Trailer — this one deserves close attention.

3,200-Mile 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe 6-Speed

Three thousand two hundred miles. On a 993. A Carrera 4S, no less, which means wide-body fenders, the all-wheel-drive system, and that immortal air-cooled flat-six all wrapped in what many people still consider the most beautiful 911 shape ever. Someone bought this car nearly thirty years ago and essentially put it in a time capsule, and that restraint is about to become someone else’s extraordinary good fortune. See the 3,200-mile 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S on Bring a Trailer while your jaw is still on the floor.

The 1-2-3 4-Cam Collection, from Garage44

BaT’s curated collection drops are always worth a look, and anything with “4-cam” in the title has my full and undivided attention — that’s a descriptor that typically points toward serious, exotic, or historically significant iron. Garage44 collections tend to be well-sourced and thoughtfully presented, so this is one to click through even if you’re just window shopping. Explore the 1-2-3 4-Cam Collection from Garage44 on Bring a Trailer and see what they’ve assembled.

This Week’s Weird and Wonderful—September 11, 2026

If you’re not reading BaT’s weekly Weird and Wonderful roundup, you’re missing the best part of the internet. This is where the truly unhinged stuff surfaces — forgotten oddballs, bizarre one-offs, and the kind of cars that make you question every mainstream purchase you’ve ever made. Consider it essential Friday reading for anyone who thinks the car world is bigger than just the usual suspects. Read this week’s Weird and Wonderful on Bring a Trailer and let your taste get a little weirder.

51-Years-Owned 1971 Datsun 240Z 4-Speed

Fifty-one years. One owner. That is a relationship with a car that most of us can only dream about, and it tells you everything you need to know about how special the original 240Z was — and still is. Early S30 Zs with documented long-term single ownership are getting genuinely hard to find in an unmolested state, and the collector market has been paying attention. Don’t miss the 51-years-owned 1971 Datsun 240Z on Bring a Trailer — this is a piece of Japanese automotive history.

1,500-Mile 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series

The AMG GT Black Series is a legitimate supercar — flat-plane crank V8, massive aero, and a Nürburgring lap time that embarrassed purpose-built exotics when it launched. With only 1,500 miles on the clock, this one is essentially a brand-new car wearing a 2021 date of birth, and the Black Series is already a certified future classic with production numbers to match. These are only going to get more expensive as the AMG faithful figure out what they’ve got. Bid on the 1,500-mile 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series at Bring a Trailer before someone else does.

25-Years-Owned 1992 Ferrari 512 TR

A quarter century with one owner is a powerful provenance statement for any car, but especially for a 512 TR — the refined, more powerful evolution of the Testarossa that Ferrari quietly perfected before the F512 M swan song. The flat-12 engine is one of the great theatrical powerplants in automotive history, all drama and mechanical soundtrack. Long single ownership usually means a well-cared-for, well-documented car, which is exactly what you want when you’re talking about a mid-engined twelve-cylinder Ferrari. See the 25-years-owned 1992 Ferrari 512 TR on Bring a Trailer and try not to fall completely in love.

1991 BMW 325i Touring 5-Speed

The E30 325i Touring is the analog-era practical sports car done absolutely right — a proper estate body on one of BMW’s greatest chassis, with a five-speed and enough driver engagement to make your commute feel like a back-road hustle. These wagons were never officially sold in the US, which makes clean examples here all the more coveted by the E30 faithful who know what they’re about. It’s the everyman entry on today’s list, but don’t sleep on it. Check out the 1991 BMW 325i Touring on Bring a Trailer and remind yourself that wagons are always cool.

That’s your Saturday snapshot — a Ferrari trifecta, two BMW legends, a time-warp Porsche, a half-century-owned Z, an AMG supercar someone barely drove, and a curveball collection drop to round it all out. Whether your budget is five figures or deep into the stratosphere, there’s something on today’s BaT docket worth watching. Set your alerts, do your homework, and may the best bidder win.
