Friday on Bring a Trailer and the lineup reads like somebody raided the dreams of five different kinds of car nuts simultaneously. We’ve got barely-driven Italian exotica, a pair of Shelby Mustangs separated by more than half a century, a one-of-a-kind coachbuilt Jaguar, and a 1948 Power Wagon that probably outweighs all of them combined. Bidding hasn’t kicked off in earnest yet — which means right now is the best time to get your eyes on these before the feeding frenzy starts.
526-Mile 2020 Ferrari 488 Pista
Five hundred and twenty-six miles. On a 488 Pista. Let that sink in for a second. The Pista is the hardcore, track-focused swan song of Ferrari’s naturally-aspirated-era-adjacent twin-turbo V8 family — lighter, more powerful, and meaner than the standard 488 — and someone has been storing this one like a museum piece. When the bids start rolling in, expect serious action from collectors who know these are only going to get rarer. Check out the 526-mile Ferrari 488 Pista on Bring a Trailer before this one gets away.
1968 Shelby Mustang GT500 Fastback
A real 1968 GT500 Fastback is the kind of car that stops a room cold. Carroll Shelby’s big-block Mustangs from this era are among the most coveted American muscle cars ever built, and the fastback roofline makes this generation arguably the best-looking of the bunch. Provenance and documentation are everything on a car like this, so do your homework before you click that bid button. Have a look at the 1968 Shelby Mustang GT500 Fastback listing and start saving your pennies.
1965 Jaguar S-Type 3.8 Coupe by Frua
This is the wildcard of the day — possibly the whole week. Pietro Frua was the Italian coachbuilder responsible for some of the most elegant one-off and low-volume bodies ever draped over a European chassis, and a Frua-bodied Jaguar S-Type is genuinely obscure, collector-grade territory. If you’ve never heard of this car before, you’re not alone, and that’s exactly what makes it so fascinating. Dig into the 1965 Frua Jaguar S-Type 3.8 Coupe listing and prepare to go down a rabbit hole.
3,900-Mile 2000 Dodge Viper GTS
A Gen-2 Viper GTS with under 4,000 miles is the automotive equivalent of finding an untouched time capsule. The GTS coupe — with those iconic double white stripes and a side-exit exhaust that sounds absolutely feral — is the one Viper variant that’s aged into genuine classic status. Low-mileage examples are getting harder and harder to find in unspoiled condition. See the 3,900-mile 2000 Dodge Viper GTS on Bring a Trailer while you still can.
1948 Dodge Power Wagon B-1-PW
The original Power Wagon is one of the most honest vehicles America ever produced — a purpose-built, go-anywhere workhorse that’s become a legitimate icon in the vintage truck world. The B-1-PW variant is the civilian version of a WWII-era military formula, and original survivors in any condition command serious attention. This is the truck your grandfather wishes he’d kept. Take a look at the 1948 Dodge Power Wagon B-1-PW listing and see if it’s time to reclaim the family legacy.
2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Heritage Edition
The modern GT500 Heritage Edition is Ford and Shelby paying deliberate, handsome tribute to the classic cars of the 1960s, and the current-gen GT500 itself is a genuinely ferocious machine — supercharged, track-capable, and probably the last of its naturally-atmospheric-adjacent breed before electrification reshapes everything. Heritage editions carry a premium at auction, especially in the first few years off the line when they’re still a known quantity. Check out the 2022 Shelby GT500 Heritage Edition on Bring a Trailer if you want a modern Mustang with historical gravitas.
1983 Porsche 928S at No Reserve
No reserve on an early-eighties 928S? Now we’re talking. The 928 has completed its full rehabilitation from unloved oddball to properly appreciated grand tourer, and a well-sorted S variant with the bigger V8 is a genuinely compelling find. The no-reserve tag means this one goes to whoever shows up, which tends to attract bargain hunters and true believers in equal measure. Follow the 1983 Porsche 928S no-reserve auction and see where the market puts this shark-nosed classic today.
1970 Dodge Polara Sedan 440 Police Car
A 440-powered Polara Police Car from 1970 is about as period-correct and wonderfully specific as it gets — this is the kind of rolling history that belongs in a movie set and ends up in a garage with a story attached to every scratch. Big-block Mopar B-bodies are having a moment, and police-spec survivors are a niche within a niche that attracts passionate buyers. Scope out the 1970 Dodge Polara 440 Police Car listing before someone else puts the lights on and drives it home.
27k-Mile 2008 BMW Z4 Coupe 3.0si 6-Speed
The E86 Z4 Coupe is one of those cars that flew under the radar when new and is now quietly becoming a cult favorite — a proper fixed-roof sports car with a silky inline-six and a manual gearbox, at a time when both are increasingly endangered. Twenty-seven thousand miles on a 2008 is barely broken in, and the 3.0si spec with the six-speed is absolutely the right combination. Get the details on the 27k-mile 2008 BMW Z4 Coupe 3.0si before the E86 faithful snatch it up.
That’s your Friday auction roundup — a genuinely eclectic mix that covers everything from Italian track weapons to civilian military trucks to coachbuilt oddities. Bidding is just getting started on all of these, so bookmark your favorites and set your alarms. The weekend is coming, and so is the action.
