The auction will feature more than 200 quality collector cars and motorcycles, with additional consignments added to broadarrowauctions.com daily.

The West Palm Beach Auction offers collector cars across all categories and for all budgets, from American classics, sports, and muscle cars, to European sports and supercars, through to JDM classics and more. Highlights from the sale include a desirable selection of sports and performance cars from the ‘80s, ‘90s, 2000s, and today.

1981 BMW M1

1980s

An eye-catching 1981 BMW M1, one of a mere 399 road-legal examples and finished in its factory-delivered colors of Orange over Black. Benefitting from a recent service, it is a great example of one of the finest combinations of Teutonic engineering and Italian styling (Est. $450,000 - $500,000).
The ultimate 1980s sports car icon, a 1986 Ferrari Testarossa Monospecchio, benefitting from a recent engine-out belt service and complete with four pieces of Testarossa-specific fitted Schedoni leather luggage (Est. $160,000 - $180,000, offered without reserve).

1996 Porsche 911 Carrera RS

1990s

A 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera RS, a fantastic example of the finest Carrera RS of the 1990s and the final air-cooled Carrera RS. Delivered new to Japan and imported under Show & Display in 2016, the Carrera RS is now ready to savor in the U.S. (Est. $350,000 - $400,000).
A winning 1994 Porsche 911 Carrera Cup 3.8, champion at two Porsche Supercup events in 1994; Barcelona and Hockenheim. Currently finished in its 1994 race-winning livery, it shows limited use on a recent engine rebuild and service and is surely a ticket to entry at Rennsport or Luftgekühlt (Est. $250,000 - $300,000).
A particularly well-preserved 1995 Dodge Viper RT/10, powered by a massive 8.0-liter V10 engine and showing only 6,619 miles (Est. $60,000 - $70,000).

2001 Ferrari 550 Maranello

2000s

A dutifully maintained 2001 Ferrari 550 Maranello, an elegant example of the last Ferrari offered exclusively with a gated six-speed manual and recipient of a Ferrari Club of America Platinum Award in 2021 (Est. $275,000 - $325,000).
A truly bespoke 2003 Aston Martin DB AR1, the 73rd of just 99 examples built for the U.S. market. Finished in custom Mercedes-Benz Designo Silver paint, it shows just 4,274 miles at the time of cataloging (Est. $200,000 - $250,000, offered without reserve).
A thoroughly maintained 2003 Acura NSX-T, a targa-top version of one of the most well-rounded sports cars of all time. One of less than 200 North American examples built for 2003, this striking New Formula Red over Camel leather car is ready for its next owner (Est. $150,000 - $165,000).

2016 Porsche 911 R

Today

A thrilling 2016 Ford Focus RS RX ‘Hoonigan’, one of the two hero cars masterfully driven by Ken Block in Hoonigans: Gymkhana NINE: Raw Industrial Playground, the 2016 hit video that received an astounding 53+ million views (Est. $400,000 - $600,000).
A practically brand-new 2016 Porsche 911R, showing a mere 193 miles at the time of cataloging. Offering the incredible combination of the GT3 RS engine, six-speed 'GT Sport' manual transmission, and the wingless 911 silhouette, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an era-defining supercar (Est. $500,000 - $600,000).
A low-mileage 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Roadster Final Edition, the modern iteration of the 300 SL Roadster. One of just 350 Final Edition SLS AMG Coupes and Roadsters manufactured, this particular car has been subtly enhanced by a RENNtech R1 performance package (Est. $335,000 - $365,000).
A 2012 Shelby Mustang GT500 Super Snake 50th Anniversary, believed to be one of only 44 coupes built to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Shelby American and showing just 660 miles (Est. $160,000 - $180,000).

“We’re looking forward to our first West Palm Beach Auction with a fantastic and diverse group of cars sure to appeal to the passionate Florida collector base and beyond,” says Barney Ruprecht, Senior Car Specialist, Broad Arrow Group. “The lot list features performance icons of every era, along with incredible rarities like the Ford Focus RS RX ‘Hoonigan’, perhaps one of the most viewed cars on the internet. With Ken Block making a Gymkhana return in electric vehicles, these four-cylinder, reportedly 1000 hp machines are likely to become more and more collectible.”
