Top Results at RM Sotheby’s Miami 2025 Sale
The top three results were for cars from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum Collection:
The 1966 Ford GT40 Mk II, chassis P/1032, sold for a marque-record $13,205,000 as the most expensive car at the RM Sotheby’s Moda Miami 2025 sale. It became the most expensive Ford ever sold at public auction — the previous record was $11 million paid for a 1968 Ford GT40 Lightweight at RM Auctions Monterey 2012. The record 1966 Ford GT40 Mk II was raced by Holman-Moody at the famous 1966 Le Mans 24 Hours race but it retired early with mechanical issues. Its best result was second at the 1966 12 Hours of Sebring Race. It was the third most expensive car sold by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum.
→ The Ford GT40 was the most expensive car sold at the Florida Spring 2025 classic car auctions.
The unique 1908 Mercedes 17.3-Liter 150 HP ‘Brookland’ Semmering Rennwagen achieved $8,225,000. The car was specifically produced to compete in the prestigious Semmering Hill Climb, which it duly won in both the 1908 and 1909 competitions. It was the fourth most expensive car sold by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum.
The 1957 Chevrolet Corvette SS Project XP-64 sold for $7,705,000 to double the marque record. This was the first purpose-built racecar of GM and was the only Corvette SS completed and raced by General Motors. It competed at the 1957 Sebring 12 Hours but retired early with mechanical issues. The car was only completed the day before the race. Before that race, Chevrolet allowed Juan Manuel Fangio to drive the car and he promptly set a new Sebring lap record. Shortly after Sebring, GM again withdrew from factory-supported racing.
