Monday on Bring a Trailer and the lineup reads like someone raided a very eclectic dream garage — we’ve got a bespoke restomod Porsche 911 Turbo rubbing elbows with a 458 Spider, a low-mile S65 AMG, a couple of square-body trucks, and a no-reserve Mercury that most people have completely forgotten existed. Bids are still cold across the board, which means the window is open if you’re quick. Here’s what’s worth watching today.
RoW 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo by Kaege Retro
This is the headliner and it’s not particularly close. Kaege is the German outfit that takes later 993-era 911 Turbos and reimagines them with classic 1970s Turbo aesthetics — wider arches, ducktail spoiler, that whole gorgeous anachronistic package. A rest-of-world (RoW) spec car adds another layer of rarity on top of an already rare build. If you’ve been sleeping on what Kaege does, this 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo by Kaege Retro is your crash course — and it will cost you accordingly when the bidding wakes up.
2013 Ferrari 458 Spider
The 458 Spider is one of the last naturally aspirated Ferrari convertibles before the turbo era arrived and changed everything, and that fact alone keeps values climbing. Mid-engine, high-revving, and absolutely stunning with the top down — this is a car that justifies every cliché ever written about Italian exotics. This 2013 Ferrari 458 Spider hasn’t attracted a single bid yet, but that never lasts long on a car like this.
33k-Mile 2003 BMW 330Ci Convertible 5-Speed
Thirty-three thousand original miles on an E46 convertible with a proper five-speed manual is the kind of combo that makes BMW purists weak in the knees. The E46 generation has quietly crossed over from “used car” to “modern classic” territory, and low-mile, manual examples are genuinely getting hard to find. This 33k-mile 2003 BMW 330Ci convertible deserves a lot more attention than it’s getting right now.
1971 Ford F-100 Sport Custom Explorer 4-Speed at No Reserve
The early-’70s F-100 is one of the most handsome trucks Detroit ever bolted together, and the “Sport Custom Explorer” trim is a neat piece of Blue Oval history that casual fans often overlook. The no-reserve tag means this one is selling no matter what, which is always good news for buyers and always a little nerve-wracking for sellers. This 1971 Ford F-100 Sport Custom Explorer should draw a crowd once the comments section wakes up.
2021 Ram 2500 Big Horn Crew Cab Cummins 4×4 Night Edition
A nearly-new heavy-duty diesel with the Cummins inline-six, four-wheel drive, and the blacked-out Night Edition treatment — this is a working truck that also happens to look seriously mean. The used truck market has softened a bit from its pandemic-era insanity, so a 2021 with presumably reasonable miles could land at a fair number. This 2021 Ram 2500 Big Horn Cummins 4×4 is the one for the buyer who actually needs to tow something large and wants to look good doing it.
383-Powered 1972 Chevrolet C20 Pickup
A 383 stroker under the hood of a C20 means this thing was built to move, not just to sit pretty at a show. The heavier-duty C20 designation sets it apart from the more common C10, and a numbers-matching build this isn’t — but that’s kind of the point with a truck like this. This 383-powered 1972 Chevrolet C20 pickup is a driver, a hauler, and almost certainly a tire-fryer.
1963 Mercury Monterey Custom 4-Door Sedan at No Reserve
Mercury built some genuinely beautiful cars in the early 1960s and almost nobody remembers it — the Monterey is a big, chrome-laden, full-size American sedan that belongs in a Scorsese film. The no-reserve makes it an automatic conversation starter for collector-car bargain hunters who love the era but hate paying Impala prices. This 1963 Mercury Monterey Custom 4-door sedan is as forgotten as it is fabulous.
1964 Chevrolet C10 Stepside Pickup 4-Speed
The first-generation Action Line C10 Stepside is pure Americana — narrow box, graceful lines, and an honest-to-goodness four-speed to row through. These trucks have been climbing steadily in value as the collector market finally catches up to what gearheads have known for decades. This 1964 Chevrolet C10 Stepside is the kind of old truck you buy and never regret.
15k-Mile 2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG
Fifteen thousand miles on a 2006 S65 AMG is borderline absurd — this is a car powered by a twin-turbocharged V12 that was essentially hand-assembled by AMG engineers, and it’s barely been driven. The S65 of this era is the ultimate expression of over-the-top German luxury muscle, and low-mile examples in good shape are increasingly rare finds. This 15k-mile 2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG is going to cause a serious bidding argument before the week is out.
No bids have landed yet across the full lineup, which is actually the best possible time to be paying attention. Whether your heart is set on a handbuilt Porsche restomod or a forgotten full-size Mercury, today’s BaT slate has something worth bookmarking. Check back often — these things move fast once the comments get going.
