Top Collector Cars to Watch
If you’re a fan of classic racing or Steve McQueen, you’ll know exactly how significant this car is. Driven by McQueen himself in the iconic 1971 film Le Mans, this Porsche 917K isn’t just a car; it’s a piece of movie and motorsport history. With its sleek lines and rich racing pedigree, it’s a must-see at this year’s auction.
Richard Petty’s 1970 Plymouth Superbird – Known for its aerodynamic design and NASCAR domination, the 1970 Plymouth Superbird is a car that needs no introduction. This particular model was once raced by none other than the King of NASCAR, Richard Petty. If you’ve ever wanted to own a slice of racing royalty, this is your chance.
A lightweight, high-performance race car designed for endurance racing, the Porsche 910 succeeded the Porsche 906 and featured a mid-mounted flat-six or flat-eight engine, paired with a fiberglass body to enhance aerodynamics and reduce weight. The 910 was smaller and more agile than its predecessor, making it competitive on tight circuits. This example is the first 910 produced and was raced by Niki Lauda in 1969.
The Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona is arguably one of Maranello’s best-known and most significant production cars, but its sibling the 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider is a different matter. Still powered by the same V12 engine as the Berlinetta model, the Spider was extremely limited in production with just 122 produced. Just 30 examples of the GTB/4 were finished in Nero (black) and this pair stuns together. Offered as separate lots, these could be the finishing touches on a stunning collection of Ferraris.
With 4,500 vehicles up for grabs and a lineup that includes everything from Steve McQueen’s Porsche 917K to Richard Petty’s Superbird, the 2025 Kissimmee Mecum Auction is shaping up to be a must-attend event for car lovers everywhere. Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or just soak up the atmosphere, this auction has something for everyone.
So mark your calendars, grab your paddles, and get ready to experience the thrill of Mecum’s Kissimmee Auction.
