Hello.

Welcome to podcast on Lowe's Live with me, Andrea.

I think we're going to do something a little bit different today.

Goldberg's running into some weather issues and it's kind of weird,

but they're testing fire alarms where I am, so it's difficult to record.

However, we did grab an episode with my friends from Shift and Steer, Brad Fanshawn, Aaron Hagar,

so I thought maybe we would take that from this week and replicate it here as well.

So here's a chat with the guys from Shift and Steer,

but before we get started, a quick word from our friends at FanDuel.

The wild card round is here and FanDuel is turning on playoff mode.

All customers get a profit boost pack with every NFL playoff game day.

Take your shot on an upset or build a parlay that fits the moment.

Then apply your profit boosts and go after even bigger payouts when the playoffs get rolling.

Hey, 2026 is starting out with a bang.

It's auction time of year.

We've got the Sotheby's RM auction in Scottsdale this week.

We've got Barrett Jackson happening right now.

And last week, we had Meekum, and we're going to be talking about it on today's show

because they blew the lid off the place.

Man, have you guys, I mean, were you blown away by those prices?

Holy cow, I don't know what was going on over there.

I mean, great for Meekum, records were broken, you know, multiple records were broken.

But what's going on with people spending this kind of money on, like,

you may be following a car for a couple of years and going,

you know, I really want it.

I think there's a future. I'll go 10% over market.

And when it's a multi-million dollar car, that's significant.

But to go two or three times its value.

Crazy.

We've seen that fall on its head multiple times.

I have a theory. I have a theory.

Because it wasn't just the Ferraris.

I mean, they went bonkers, but the muscle cars also.

Yeah, except the BB-512, it's still way undervalued.

And so, oh yeah, that 512 I saw that made me think of Mikey's

because I didn't want him to get rid of his original owner owned by him, baby.

And God, don't even get me started.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

But anyways, the muscle cars were going huge dollars too.

My theory is that with everything going on in the news, everybody thought,

man, I'm just spending my wad because the world may not be here in a couple of weeks.

Yeah, right.

I'm doing it too.

I'm going to go buy a slightly used Prius.

Yeah.

Every, you know what's happening is it's like,

if you think it's like everyone with money that are accountant is calling them going,

taxes are soon, don't hold on to cash because you're going to have to pay that.

But that only would apply if the auction was in December, not January.

So it doesn't really apply.

And have they made that much money this so far this year that they need a tax write off?

Yeah, for this year.

But I know guys that sell cars for a living and their clients will come in and like,

it's December, bro.

I talked to my account.

We're getting ahead of it.

And he's like, I need to come in right away and get a new Ford Expedition.

You got one for like around 80 grand cash.

He's like, what?

He's like, yeah, trust me, I got to do this.

It's a weird way of doing a business.

But yeah.

Okay.

Well, before we get into all the craziness of the Meekum auction and the big prices and

why or why not they sold.

And I want to talk about a 1999 Cadillac Deville.

Okay.

Now it's got it.

It's got a North Star motor in it.

You know, so I don't know if you guys saw this or not, but it was a pretty big thing

online this week that bring a trailer, which we all love.

We all like to check out, took a little bit of a hit this week because they usually vet

their cars quite well.

Oh no.

But they had this 1999 get posted and it took a viewer that went to the auction to go,

what the hell did you let this up there for?

Because it was all AI.

Oh no.

When you look at the photos, the car has vertical tail lights in some of the photos.

It has different tail lights and other photos.

In one, there's not a radiator.

And it's just, I don't think the whole car is AI, but I think somebody messed around

with it and, and it made it past their people.

And so, you know, it gave it, it gave the opportunity for the bashers to bash, which

always happens, but it was pretty telling.

I mean, there's so many great things you can do with AI as all of us have found out, but

there's so many bad things.

I mean, God, every other video on Instagram and on, you know, is just, it's, it's some

AI trash, you know, and everybody's getting upset about it.

This was a weird thing to get past bring a trailer.

I don't blame bring a trailer for this because you're right.

I think someone was legit selling a car.

The trailer process is you submit your car, VIN number, you pay your, your $99 fee.

And when you upload the photos, you have to upload the title with your name on it.

That doesn't go on the public listing, but that's part of the authentication process.

No title, no sale.

Like you have to have the title as part of your, so somebody probably had a real car.

They just had terrible images of the car.

So they, and they wanted to fix flaws in the car.

And so they started using AI for it.

And yeah, good, good eye on, on, on some of those.

Oh, wow.

I'm looking over these photos now.

I see the discrepancies now, like, like the body lines don't lie up and some weird stuff.

But wow, like just at a glance, I think I would have missed some of that stuff too.

And I screwed nice.

Especially the car because we're, it's not something that we're used to looking at all

the time.

Yeah.

And it's not something that's so collectible or anything that somebody'd be going, oh,

wait a minute.

No, it right.

So I passed.

I just interviewed bring a trailer.

But it was a great interview.

They were on car cast recently, by the way, 1.7 billion and change they did.

1.7 billion dollars in total auction sales.

The number one brand was Porsche and the number one car was 911.

So right, if somebody was trying to scam or fix photos, if they did a 911, you'd be so

scrutinized.

So like, if you were going to pick an old Cadillac, like you're talking about like a 90s Cadillac

or whatever, you're right.

I, you know, I probably wanted to spend that much time clicking through those photos and

scrutinizing that car.

I probably would have got away with it.

Man, admit it.

You wouldn't even click on that car.

I probably wouldn't click on that car.

Maybe it was a test.

Maybe, maybe someone out there is testing the waters to see if, if, if AI can get through

and they're going to scam, you know, it was pretty amazing though when I saw it.

And it was, you know, bring a trailer, took it down, right?

So bring a trailer.

They already addressed it, took it down and said they apologized and they were going to

scrutinize their, you know, how it would have gotten through because they're supposed

to have dedicated people that review every photo and they do.

When we talked to them, when I talked to them about how things have grown and changed and

how do they keep up with it?

Several things.

One is they were, you know, when I spoke to them a year ago, they were doing 600 auctions

a week.

Now they're up to about a thousand auctions a week, but it takes a much bigger staff because

not only did they increase almost double the amount of auctions per week, but the amount

of time to get a listing done is now just a couple of days.

Like from when you pay and it gets approved, if you're not the roadblock, they'll get it

done quicker before it could take up to two weeks because they would scrutinize and had

to go through team members and they didn't have enough people.

And one of the features they talked about, maybe it was a couple of years ago, they talked

about if you can't take the photos, they have the premium listings.

So instead of a $99 listing for like $3.99 or something like that, they'll find a local

photographer that has done a bunch of bring a trailer stuff.

They'll come to you, they'll photograph the car.

But now they're working with, for lack of a better term, like authorized sellers.

So if Brad, you were saying like, Hey, listen, I'm super busy.

You know, I got to drive to Arizona or whatever, sell my mom's house, take care of it.

But I, but I want to sell her truck, you know, for example, you can, you can literally

just hand over the key and you can just pay a premium fee and go, you do everything.

You do the listing.

You, you know, here's what I know.

Here's the Vin, here's the title.

You take the photos, you do the listing, you manage the comments and call me when it's done.

They will do that whole thing for you as well.

My friend does that.

I mean, for friends, but it's kind of a little side hustle for him.

Yeah. Yeah, I've done it.

I've done like 12 or 15 cars that have been up there up on, you know, look at my history

on, on bring a trailer.

You're the friend.

Sorry.

Oh, you're the guy.

You're the other friend of the guy.

I'm the other guy.

I'm going to be doing it again soon.

We're listing.

Oh, no way.

That's a brand friend.

Al.

Look at that.

I, I'm working on a listing right now.

And Brad, this is a cool car.

It's a 1992 Porsche 911 turbo black on black, 42, 43,000 miles.

It's not the factory slant nose that you were looking for.

Right.

But it is it's Goldberg's car.

He's had it for 20 plus years.

And because he doesn't really fit in it.

All he's going to say, yeah, yeah, all he's done is like put it on a

lift and just like clean it and detail it and just like every nut and bolt, the

engine, good apartment, everything.

And it's got a full, a couple of tasteful mods.

It was done by a group in Arizona that it's since closed.

I don't want to say they're gone on business.

They could have just gotten old retired, but they, I think he did a little

bit larger turbos, intercooler, coil overs, just a, just a couple of tasteful

mods and it just runs strong.

It's it's a cool car.

But these nine, six, four turbos, I would, you got to be prepared, prepared

to pay north of 200,000.

Yeah, easy.

Easy.

That's a great little car.

It's cool though.

The 80, the 84, 85s are going like bonkers now too.

I mean, it's like, I always thought, oh, you know, maybe I'll own one of those.

No, I guess I won't now.

You know, I mean, it's like, it's like, I honestly, at

one point in my life said, you know, someday I'm going to own enough 40.

Yeah, I don't think so now.

I don't think so.

Well, I think anything could happen, Brad.

Yes, that's true.

That's true.

I'm thinking of selling the Morgan because I really want a different

experience for the rally as much as I love that car.

And and I was looking at, you know, some older 9-11s.

I'd like something in patina, you know, older 9-11s, maybe a little

356 coupe, some Jaguar, you know, XK120s, I was looking at Alpha GTVs.

Like I'm going, maybe I can get, you know, 45 to 55 for the Morgan, like that.

Like that's a fair middle ground.

And I'm like, there's not much out there.

And then now a couple of things that I like just went to the auction and got

crazy money.

I'm like, well, there is my chances with those.

Same thing, Brad.

It's like, it's like the value of stuff.

It's just it's bananas again.

What's going on?

Yeah, but it's the the premium top of the line, best of the best rarity.

And that and that's a great segue into back to the meekum auction that we were

talking about.

It's it's crazy.

We if you haven't had your head in the sand, you've probably already heard

about some of these prices or the 250 GTO Ferrari, the white one.

But let's start out with some of the muscle cars.

And one of them put a big smile on my face before you do that.

Let me let me just run through because I got it in front of me.

OK, I'll just run through why we're hitting this.

OK, the the the meekum auction total sales for that week or however many

days, four hundred and forty one million dollars, the largest in-person auction

and ever to happen for forty one.

As it was happening, you could tell.

It was crazy.

It was it was nuts.

Saturday was the largest single day auction in history.

Saturday alone.

Granted, there were some big cars, two hundred and fifty nine million dollars.

Now, to put this in perspective, like like like RM or Gooding over in Arizona,

we'll probably do a sixty million dollar auction.

So this is two hundred and fifty nine million in one day.

And they had a hundred and forty thousand people show up at that at that auction.

And it was cold in Florida that week.

It wasn't even warm.

So just before we even get into some of the cars, think about like, I mean,

total auction sales for the year for for bringing trailers, one point seven billion.

That's a crazy number.

And we look at the biggest Barrett Jackson Scottsdale auctions, right,

because their friends, right, we follow them and they hit some some records,

two hundred million dollars a year at those auctions.

When I when we did Vegas years ago on the first one back from covid,

I think that was like thirty six or forty million dollars,

like to give it in perspective to do four hundred and forty one million dollars

during believable, you know, whatever, the few days that they were one crazy.

The one Ferrari collection that they consigned for that auction.

That did, I believe I heard, one hundred and twelve million.

Just that one group of cars.

It's forty eight cars.

It's crazy. Yeah.

It's just and thirty three of those forty eight

set records, set world records.

So everything but the five twelve.

Yeah.

So let's get into this.

It's crazy.

Let's start right out with one of the muscle cars that was pretty, pretty crazy.

It was a a Yanko Nova, a Yanko Nova.

That car was beautiful.

It was in great condition, fully restored,

and it got eight hundred and fifty two thousand dollars.

A Nova.

A Nova. A Nova.

And now, Matt, you wanted that little seventy one Nova that was down the street.

Well, it was twenty thousand bucks.

It just went up to seventy two.

So it's right.

And it's not even restored.

It has six cylinder.

But another one that kind of

we all knew this one was going to do well,

but it got top of their estimate, which was the seventy one Kuda,

the Hemi Kuda convertible, the white and black one.

And it brought in three point three million,

which was their high on their their estimate, three point three million.

That's that one with bonkers.

That was one of the cars that that Goldberg's always had his eye on.

As far as his Dodge collection, that's the one car he's never had.

One of the one of the coupes or the or the convertibles, right?

He never had it.

And I told him what the estimate was and he's like, oh, my God, that's insane.

And you're right, they got the high end of that estimate.

Now, this next car really put a smile on my face.

I'll have you know.

Sixty nine motion Camaro.

Yeah. Yeah.

One point one million dollars.

Wow. Yeah.

One point one mil. I like that.

Now, what's interesting is they also had two of the

motion Camaros that were built in the nineties

that went through one convertible and one hard top.

The hard top got quite a bit more.

I'm sure it's because it had bond speed wheels on it.

But it got it got a hundred and ninety two thousand.

That's because the other one was from like my Vega, you know,

was original. It was a ball in motion from back in the day.

And and this other one was one of the remakes, although made by motion

and by Joel Rosen, it was one of the what I would call a remake car.

A reissue. Let's call it a reissue.

Continuation, the continuation.

There you go.

But yeah.

So what would a what would a 71

motion Vega, the only one from the Reggie Jackson collection be worth?

Well, you know, you'll have to run some photos through AI.

You have to bring a trailer and see.

But I mean, geez, that was like, OK, good.

I like that.

So I was thinking about Reggie the other day.

That's that's that's a shame.

What's the shame?

Well, that he passed away.

Reggie Jackson. Yeah.

I didn't know that.

I don't know that he passed away a couple of years ago.

No, I don't know.

I just saw my bear Jackson not that long ago.

Oh, no shit. Yeah, I thought he passed away.

I'll think about him going, man.

You know, because I kind of used to work.

My shop was across the street from him and my friend bought his old in Seaside cafe.

Yeah, and Seaside.

So I used to go over there all the time.

He used to bug me because he wanted one of my top rods,

but he was always really, really nice to me.

Well, I've been well, seventy nine years old.

They're probably going to say, wow, you know what?

You're trying to do one of those internet things, aren't you?

Start a rumor. I read a couple of years ago and I fell for it.

Damn it, Aaron. You're starting.

You're starting. Wait, let me put on my glasses.

Wait, let me put on my glasses.

You know what? I fallen for a couple of those.

I think my I think my mom probably said to me.

He said, look, what happened?

I went, oh, man, I never went any deeper than that.

Hey, if mom, she plaques and died away, who's that?

It's a guy that lives down the street.

So what's happening is it must be true.

Brad has Brad has secretly been having Alexa tell you weird stuff

in the middle of the night and like he did to his mom.

And that's why you wake up going.

I just had this dream.

That's the way I'm glad.

This is the first time I've repeated that information.

Well, here you go.

A good news. Reggie Jackson is alive in accurate air.

It is about Reggie. Reggie's back alive and with us.

So good. Good.

Well, I'll price him a bear Jackson this week.

So apparently Reggie and Jesus are the only ones who come back.

Come on, Elvis, we're praying for you. Come on.

Yeah. OK.

Lame. 69.

Yanko Camaro. Yeah, cool.

Prototype, the prototype.

Oh, wow. What do you think it went for?

What do you think, Aaron? Got a guess?

Five mil. Oh, man.

They wish they were one point eight million, though.

That's still that's that's more than a copo,

which is the factory lightweight 427 car or a ZL one,

which is the aluminum motored car has ever gone for.

But it's one of these cars, again, that it presented well.

Yes. You know, like it's golden white.

But when you see it, you're like, ah, it looks so good.

It just it really presented well.

Here's one of these things that came up at an auction.

I was I was at an auction years ago.

I was with Adam Cruller.

We were bidding on a on a Ferrari years and years ago.

And it got past the estimate

and it was going a little higher.

And then I was just like, this this isn't hit, Adam.

I was like, we need to back out.

So we backed out of it.

And then later, somebody came up to us and said,

it was a good try. The guy who bought it.

I don't remember his name.

He goes, the guy who bought it came here to buy some other car

that was like nine million dollars and he didn't get it.

And I go, I go, oh, so he was not going home empty handed.

You know, for him, that was Jackson before he passed.

You know what I'm saying?

Like this guy showed up with nine million dollars

borrowing a hole in his pocket.

He had reliable carriers on call outside.

You know, he was which was already probably a couple of grand.

I was like, yeah, so for him to like he's like in his head, he's going,

oh, if I'm going to pay two hundred and ninety thousand dollars

for a car that's worth two twenty five, who cares?

I'm not going home empty handed.

And that's that's probably a bit of what has happened at some of these auctions

when you're alive and you're in the room and you're passionate about it.

And then you're kind of angry that you didn't get the car you wanted.

Then it's easy for you to go, gosh, I didn't get that twelve million dollar car.

But you know what?

This year goes awesome.

Would I pay one point eight million for it or whatever?

And like, sure, whatever, you know, and that's good for those follow up cars.

His account is going, spend the money.

I don't care what you buy, just spend the money.

Do you think that's what happened with that sixty six?

For our I mean, for our excuse me for GT 40.

Oh, my gosh, honestly, I don't know where it was in the docket,

but look at the price of that thing.

Twelve million dollars.

It's got to have some history.

Oh, it does. But, you know, it's still.

Yeah, it's like it was an M.K.

Two was a factory lightweight car.

It had a story to it, for sure.

There was a lot there.

And everybody was spending money and the guy just went, well, I've got to buy something.

I still think Shelby Cobras and four GTS undervalued cars, four GT or GT 40s.

Win Le Mans, win first, second, third Le Mans, win for multiple years.

Like it didn't have a ton of them out there undervalued car compared

to other Le Mans winners that are out there.

So I think I think this one's getting the money it deserves.

Now, right on.

Think of the cars.

You say, think of the cars.

Think when I was 18 years old.

In the back of Hot Rod magazine, you could buy a 427

aluminum real Shelby Cobra for like 10,000 bucks.

Now, 10,000 bucks back then was a right.

Well, money, man.

I mean, I think my dad said 7,500 for his Chrysler Cordova.

You know, I that's when, like before color, though, right?

Like, yeah, it was in black and white when it was like black and white Hot Rod

magazine, it was like a pamphlet.

No, but we're talking, you know, like when I was in high school in 1989,

something like that.

And, you know, so, but but think of that.

And then you think of like the Hemi car that just sold for 3.3.

You could have had that for like 7,500 bucks.

And yeah, I mean, I literally had a guy come into the speed shop

that I worked at in Omaha, Nebraska.

He was moving.

He had a Hemi car and he said and he said, hey, man, I got to sell this.

I can't haul it to where I'm moving to because I just don't have any way of doing.

I got my other cars, blah, blah, blah.

And I go, what do you got to have for it?

And he goes 1,500 bucks and I'm like, and it was a nice one.

You know, and I'm like, and now it wasn't a coup d'etre, it was a GTX.

But I'm like, I'm like, I thought about it.

I thought about I was like, where am I going to come up with 1,500 bucks, man?

You know, and I mean, can you imagine if you could have like

squirreled some of those away, you know, or bought one of those crappy GTOs?

You know, I mean, it was old race cars.

I mean, you got to remember the story when when Pete Brock and Shelby

were racing for our Shelby Daytona coups of Le Mans.

And they were too expensive to bring home.

And he was just like, just throw them in the ocean.

We don't want them.

And then somebody somebody at the beginning of it.

Now they're they're they're boo boo bucks.

So I've got some of what we got to know what it is today.

Yeah, you know, in the future, I maybe it was 14 million or something.

Well, my alarm keeps going off here.

Can't hear it.

What were you saying?

Fourteen million for what?

For one of the Daytona, I think the Daytona, I don't know where they are now.

I haven't followed them in a while.

But it's like, look at an AC Shelby, a real four twenty seven car right now.

And it's like, you know, they're unobtainable for the average enthusiast.

It's it's it's kind of sad in a way because it'd be a great car to have.

And well, that's that's one of the cars that came up on on the list.

So here's a few of the notable cars at at Meekam, a 69 Chevy Camaro

Baldwin motion LS seven Camaro.

That's the one we were talking about.

Yeah, right. That's the one point one million.

There was a two thousand six four GT, one of the heritage cars.

They got a little bit more money than in the past.

But I think they were floating around six hundred thousand one million

three hundred and twenty thousand.

Got the Porsche nine eighteen Weisek package, six million fifty thousand.

That was the one I think it was a paint to sample orange color.

Cool. Which car was this? What model?

It's a it's a nine eighteen.

Oh, OK. The hybrid slider looks so different in that color, too.

Yeah, it did.

It kind of rolled up and looked like a McLaren because it looks like McLaren's papaya.

Yeah, you mentioned the heavy coup de convertible three point three million.

But sixty six Shelby four twenty seven Cobra real car,

beautiful green, the dark green, like the Highland Green, three point three million.

Yeah. For four twenty seven Cobra and then an Enzo Ferrari went for eleven

million one hundred and ten thousand.

That's insane, which is.

But again, paint color was, you know, special order and it was, you know,

something you never see an Enzo in that color.

OK, one of the Ferraris that I really like is the two eighty eight GTO, right?

Now, Adam always makes fun of it because it's like it looks like it has a lift kit

with off road tires and the side mirror is like it's like red and then it's like

black plastic and it's red again.

And it looks like it has like an Adelief in there.

Like it's tall and it looks like, you know, but those have always been what?

Three million two point something to three million, right?

And not any more, yes, not any more.

Did you see how much it was?

Seven point seven five million dollars.

That's the hammer price.

It's eight point five two five eight and a half million all in.

Kate, do you want a real one that will blow you away?

Previously, the highest sale on one of those was four million four hundred and five thousand.

Well, that's a huge increase.

That's what I'm saying. Like you really, really want a car.

What are you paying 10 percent over a value?

By the way, if it's four million dollars and you're going, oh, man,

I'm going to go to four, four, four, five.

Exactly. And that's still the most expensive one.

When do you think you're going to go to eight and a half million double?

Like this is what happened was the Toyota, the 2000 GT, right?

Some call it cut, you know, the first Japanese supercar.

If you're familiar with the car, had the big, lucky lights and the popups.

Very cool. But it's not like a lot of car.

It's like it's small and it's not like it's a big V8 or, you know, 10 cylinder.

And we're looking at those cars going, I get it. It's cool.

There's history there, Japanese, you know, but.

Is it a million dollar car?

And at one point it got to a million dollars.

And we're looking at it going, that's too much cars, too much.

It's not enough car for I'm sorry, it's not enough car for a million dollars.

And then they dropped hard and they've been floating around

for 10 years now at a half a million dollars.

So is that 288?

How long is it going to take for that to get to that price?

You know, you'll see, you'll run into guys, you know, Bruce Kenapa, you know,

there's you'll run into guys at auction as well and go, listen,

you're going to pay six million for a car that's selling all day long for five

million, but it's going to get to six million at some point.

So how long are you going to hold it on for?

You know, how long are you going to hold that car for?

Well, if you're at four million dollar evaluation for a car

and you just paid eight and a half million,

you're probably this is probably generational ownership now

because your kids are grandkids.

It's not like when you get there, it's just how long it's going to take.

Right. It may never get there.

And, you know, now, Aaron, what did I don't recall?

I know we all talked about it.

What did your dad's LaFerrari go for at Bear Jackson?

Just it's just under five.

It was four point eight or something like that.

Yeah. But I think I think with the wasn't it all in with the fees like five,

five, almost five, five, I'm going to say five point two, three.

Yeah. Yeah. OK.

I think these they had one cell there, a twenty fifteen LaFerrari,

six point one million.

And it was the previous record at five point two.

Was it the apperta?

No, this is not the apperta.

OK, the apperta goes for even more.

Yeah, the apperta went for even more.

Well, yeah.

But six point one.

So everything was just knocking it out of the park, except for the older Ferraris.

And see, we're seeing this now, the older Ferraris.

I mean, we're seeing it here with the real.

I think the test will be what happens at RM or at Bonham's or at Gooding,

things like that, where people are used to buying those older Ferraris.

Yeah. Will they hold their value or is this next generation

who's moving the dollars coming in and saying, no, we want the new ones.

We don't want those old muscle car ones.

You know, well, if we look at some of the newer ones like like like that three

sixty, they're going for as much money as some of these classic Ferraris.

You know, it's that's what I'm saying.

Yeah, the new one. Yeah, it's interesting.

It, you know, first for us, it'd be like, yeah, man,

maybe the older ones will devalue, you know, they're not going to devalue enough,

though, that's the problem. Yeah, right.

That's all right.

So do you want to take a quick break and then we'll talk about.

Let's do that. Let's take a break in the big Ferrari.

Well, we headed into the weekend.

It's a big championship Sunday with the NFL.

Hey, we're back.

We're back.

We heard from our sponsors.

Those guys, they're the ones who help us to buy a Ferrari GTO.

That's right.

So there was this guy that that bought the Ferrari GTO and I know him.

I actually know him through some friends and he's a big watch guy also.

So we've had a couple of conversations at shows here in Orange County.

One or two.

I'm not saying he's like my best buddy or anything.

I'm he's an acquaintance.

I've met him a couple of times.

I guess there was a little bit of a mistake.

He sent the guy down there to buy the car.

He told him he wanted the GTO judge.

And the guy accidentally bought the GTO Ferrari.

So no, but seriously, I do know him.

And David Lee's his name.

Excuse me.

Yeah, he's got a big public Instagram.

So he publicly said he bought it.

It's all out there.

Brad's not throwing him under the bus and having people show up at his garage

to try to jack his car.

Listen, he's got a hell of a Ferrari collection before this.

And he has a huge watch store.

I mean, this huge.

He's had he's had car shows there before.

I that's one of the ones where I met him.

And it's it's crazy.

It's the the cars and this car.

Now, we talked about this last week about what we thought it would go for.

I didn't know anything about this car.

Now that I find out about the car, Matt, you almost nailed the price.

You said I think 32 million.

I said 38, but I think I might have said hammer price 38.

So and it ended up being 38 and a half million all in.

So it was hammered like 35.

But what I found out afterwards, and we'll shed this before we.

Go in. Do I get a commission on it?

Is that what you found out?

Yes, you do.

But some of the things is, OK, number one, it's right hand drive,

which makes it less desirable to some people.

But it did not have the original motor.

Didn't have a serial number, matching number motor.

But that, you know, when you really look at the overall scheme,

these were race cars.

There's a lot of Hemi cars that don't have the right marks.

There's a lot of other race cars that don't have

because they blew them up and put a different motor in.

You know, it's usually chassis numbers that you're looking at on these cars.

Also, keep in mind, like like a LaMau winning 250 GTO is, you know, 70 to 100 million.

You know, something that that does have all the boxes checked

is a 70 million dollar Ferrari.

So if you get one of these rare cars and sure, it had an engine swap over,

there's to a period, correct engine to the right.

And, you know, it's not like it's got an LS swapping or anything.

And you get it for 38 and a half million.

That's, you know, it's a car wasn't restored and it was white.

And it was painted.

Sorry, it was painted.

It's been painted several times.

Yeah. It's been painted a number of colors.

But it was white, which was the original color from the factory

and the only one ever painted white.

And as one observer said,

people are used to red when they see a Ferrari GTO.

You know, it's one of those things.

But go ahead, Matt, you you're going to get into the pricing and some of the action.

I was going to say, first of all, I love it and white.

Oh, yeah, I think it's great.

I think it's super special and white.

I I.

Again, we talked about, like, should it get its own standalone auction?

What would you know, what was the deal around it?

And I think, you know, Meekum strategy was

it's not a Le Mans winner.

It actually doesn't have much racing history or any winning history at all.

The other one that sold a few years ago at RM

had like a class win at the Nurburgring.

And that one was like 50 something million dollars, right?

So this is where in this racing car world, the wins really start to to pay.

You know, yeah.

So they're going, well, you know, it's been painted.

It's an engine swap.

Doesn't have the race history.

Instead of giving it its own standalone auction,

let's bring it to our flagship auction auction.

But to get those people in the room,

let's let's see if we can consign as many high dollar Ferraris as we possibly can.

For that. And that's where this ended up being just a home run strategy.

Just talk about the strategy because not only did this car sell.

Look what it did to every other Ferrari in the room at that time.

I don't think this is the new benchmark for Ferraris, by the way.

Everybody shouldn't start listing their Ferraris

on bring a trailer and and all over the place at at at these crazy prices.

This is not that this was this was passion in the room.

This is why the live auction still is a desirable thing to go to.

You know, one of the things, though, Matt, that that was an observation

that that I noted is that it was these this Buchanan collection

had these made to order, which they call the Ferrari Taylor

made to order crazy colors.

That one was yellow with a green in interior.

And another one, I mean, but he did that way before people are doing it now.

Like we saw it with Porsche back in the 80s.

You could special order those really unique colors.

And there were people that did it.

And now those colored cars are worth a ton more.

But it's not what they're doing now.

Now there's guys ordering them just on speculation.

I'm going to order some crazy color to.

So I think if there's air colors and some of these, you know,

called Miami Vice colors or whatever you want to call them.

That's also a reason these cars went because there's not going to be another one.

Thank God, that's yellow with a green interior.

But unless somebody special orders it, you know, and and then just sits on it.

But this guy did it because that's what he liked.

I mean, he was a yellow fanatic.

And he obviously and he ordered one of everything.

I mean, that was a collection like no other.

Because all the other Ferrari guys have red cars.

So yeah, except David Lee.

David Lee's got his his.

Well, he's got a collection.

Yeah, he's got his his mustard ketchup mayonnaise.

Yeah, now he's adding mayonnaise.

Yeah, that's good, Brad.

His his Instagram is

Ferrari collector David underscored David Lee.

Yeah. And he's got one point one million followers.

There's a video up there that that says he has an eighty five million dollar

collection and and part of that is so my friends at Hero Cover.

They have a deal with with Mekam.

Mekam, they're the official car cover of Mekam.

So they went out there and covered.

They do the full printed photo realistic covers, right?

Aaron, obviously, you're very familiar with them.

The first ones.

So they pushed on that Mekam deal and they went out there to cover some of the best cars.

So they covered, I think, the Yanko Camaro.

They covered the two fifty GTL look great.

Yeah, and it looks like they should have covered in red.

Just a bit.

Should have covered in red.

It's funny. Yeah, it's funny.

There was one of the covers they did.

I think it was at SEMA where somebody

did a big SEMA build, but I forgot it was like a muscle car.

And it was a ratted out like muscle car rusty like you would start with, of course,

and then you turn it into some SEMA build.

So they hold on slums going up.

But they did the car cover with the old photos of the rusted out Junker car.

And when they debuted the car, they pulled that off and it showed the new version.

So that's a great idea.

Yeah, it's a fun way to debut it.

Yeah. And that's the thing, too, is when I was speaking with Cody about my wife's

new little car from Hero Covers, he said, Well, let's let's let's do something

different. Let's do a nice collab and we'll come up with a cool design.

And when I was at Porsche Colorado Springs, they had this beautiful rally car there

that was really, really beautiful.

And it was all polka dots.

And and I thought, Oh, I've got to just do something with polka dots for my wife

and, you know, polka dot queen and roller skating and, you know, like,

like all these fun things that she loves.

And they nailed it.

And so you see this really fun, elaborate car cover in the garage.

And then you uncover the cover and it's and it's it's this very

you know, it's this very understated Porsche.

It's it's it's adventuring green and, you know, dark wheels and black interior.

And it's it's very it's very understated.

But the cover is like, whoa.

So it's like, just celebrate the cover.

Have some fun because it's for her.

And she's excited every time she goes out in the garage

and and she gets to, you know, uncover her beauty in a different way.

I love I love what they're doing.

You know, they had one customer that wanted it to look like a pizza.

So they put in a pizza.

That's right.

Anyway, really fun stuff.

Yeah, really, because it's a fun company.

Yeah, it was a pepperoni pizza.

But anyway, they're friends of ours.

A burrito.

We make good car covers.

We love what they're doing.

They're at hero covers dot com.

And the paints coming off my truck.

But I won the SEMA design award for the GM design award.

I should have them do one that looks like it's all painted nice.

And then when I take it off, it's a radial truck.

You don't have to paint it.

You can tell people like under that cover that looks just like my truck over there.

Yeah, yeah. Wow, that's really nice.

You should have the cover look like a 2026 version of it.

When you uncover it's an old beater.

Yeah, that'd be great.

But it was just phenomenal.

I mean, like you said, Matt, four hundred and forty one million.

That that obliterates everybody else.

I mean, there hasn't been an auction like that.

I don't know if there will be another auction like that.

Yeah, we'll see.

And again, it's not a new standard, probably, you know, it's.

We will really keep our eye on

RM this week out in Scottsdale

because they're going to have some cars that fall in the same categories.

It will be interesting to see if people go, well,

man, I got to get in on this because that does happen sometimes.

Yeah. And see if, you know, if we have some crazy prices out there

or if they kind of settle back in.

My guess is they'll be a little bit accelerated,

maybe not what we saw down there.

Yeah, I just hope dad doesn't start wanting to sell all his stuff

because we've got to make some money.

Let me get some more of your cars.

Oh, dad, stop selling it.

Funny you say that because you called me the other day

and said he wanted to get rid of everything.

Well, I've had I've had to hold him back on a few things.

The latest thing was his vanquish.

He was like, I want this. I was thinking maybe I'll sell a vanquish.

You know, I don't drive it that much and I've had to put four transmissions in it.

And he's going, but they're not worth anything.

I'm like, I know. And if you put four transmissions in it, it's worth even less.

Yeah, it's they're like like 50 grand.

And it's a first generation.

Cars didn't hold their value because they were unreliable.

Yeah, beautiful car.

But I'm fixing all kinds of silly stuff in that car.

Just little broken bits and pieces.

And but cool car.

You know, I mean, just yeah, crazy under value.

But I can't believe that the five full that the five twelve

BBIs are just they should be a million dollar cars right now

that they really should be.

There's nothing.

There's nothing unferrari about that car, mid-inch and twelve.

I mean, the thing is just if a 288, which is similar body style,

if a 288 can go to eight and a half million, you're why isn't that five twelve?

Yeah, it does.

I mean, I would argue you're the one he has is the most famous one in the world.

And it is worth a million dollars.

But which one, Matt?

Who has it?

His dad has a has a black Ferrari five twelve.

Right. Because it was in the video and Michael's he wrote a song about it.

Yeah, if you didn't know that, Brad, I didn't know if you knew that.

I didn't. I didn't.

Have you guys looked at any of the the cars that are going through it?

Scottsdale, this week, I haven't dug into the docket too much,

but you're heading out to bear it.

So what what do you got your eye on there?

You know what? I I got the catalog.

They always mail me a pre catalog and there were some things in there.

But unfortunately, I mean, they do a great job with it.

Don't get me wrong.

Unfortunately, what they send out is got to be produced so far in advance

that that there's a lot of cars that haven't made it in there yet.

You know what I mean?

Now, I will tell you, there's a 2008 Mini Cooper convertible, Aaron.

Not interested.

I know you got your eye on that one.

So not interested.

Come on. Nope.

You know, he's done that gimmick already.

He just said he's looking for something different.

He's got to end up with the what is it?

The Asuzu Viacross.

Oh, right.

I'm my Mini Cooper.

I'm keeping my Mini Cooper's keeper.

But the Morgan, too hard to find parts for.

And it hasn't been real reliable for me.

I think I think I've pretty much fixed everything,

but I'm just looking for different experiences that every time you do

the rally, it rains.

So maybe something with a top on it.

Well, if you think how conditional driving a little Cobra is, right?

Like, I love Dad's little 289 Cobra.

I'd love to own that car.

I would love to own that car.

But that's a pretty conditional car to drive.

Like, like it really has to be kind of prime weather to drive it.

The Morgan is 10 times that as far as it's like it has to be the perfect

temperature, can't be too warm, can't be too cold, can't be any moisture on the road.

I mean, you're driving a hundred and something horsepower with little skinny

tires in the front and completely open to the elements.

You can touch the ground if you put your hand out.

You got little Brooklyn arrow screen.

So you have to wear eye protection.

Lately I've been thinking of just wearing a helmet.

Like I just, in Britain, when they do their rally,

most of those guys wear helmets.

I get it.

You have communications in there.

You have your maps in there because there's nowhere to put your phone.

I stick my phone in between the seat and like the transmission tunnel

or I stuff it between my legs because there's nowhere to put anything,

not even a bottle of water.

So it's a cool little car.

I mean, I love it, but it's so conditional.

I just don't know.

You know, I'd much rather have a 120 Jaguar or another Alfa or

or something that I could drive more often and enjoy.

You know, I'll tell you another car that.

That has gone through the roof that I always thought about owning.

And I didn't pull the trigger soon enough, which is a 356 Porsche.

Oh, yeah.

I'd love to have they were you could buy them for nothing just 10 years ago.

You know, there's in our rally, we have million dollar 356 examples.

We had we had a couple of examples that were worth over a million dollars.

Crazy how much those have gone.

And even the coops are starting to go up like crazy, too.

I will tell you a car that they have gone through.

It's got still on Friday, which is an interesting car for me.

It's it's a Ferrari Testarosa and it's a 1987 Testarosa.

But it's a Strayman.

Excuse me. Oh, Strayman got convertible conversion.

Yeah. For those of you who aren't familiar with that,

we've talked about it here on the show.

They're wild.

Strayman was in Newport Beach and

he was an incredible craftsman who would take Ferraris.

He would take Mercedes.

He would take anything that you brought.

There's just two. Wasn't there a Porsche?

He does. Yes.

And he would convert them into convertibles.

But even the factory, even Ferrari factory said they they respected this guy

because he did everything to where it retracted.

And and you could not tell.

It didn't just look like a chopped off and my old business partner at Vision.

He had a 560 SEC that he took down there.

And that car you drove in it, it didn't squeak.

It didn't do it didn't move around or anything.

And it it was a full electric top.

You didn't have to get out and do stuff.

And and the Ferrari Testarosa's when the top is down, they are beautiful.

Yeah, they are.

The question is will making it a convertible hurt the price?

Because Testarosa's have finally got their

their pricing going up for so long, they were just stuck.

And now they're finally going back up.

I wonder if that will help or hurt it, you know, because not enough people

know about Strayman to be one of those like an AMG or a Brabus or.

Yeah, my prediction is it doesn't do as well.

Really? Yeah, I think it's going to go under.

It's going to go under the Testarosa market.

I'm hoping it does the same.

I'm hoping that with that said, I'm hoping it does the same.

Because they don't have these guys.

Brad, you get two people in the room that really know what it is.

And there's not that many and they know the quality of work.

And then all of a sudden, you know, it's eight million dollars.

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

Ford and then when we look at when we look at R.M.

in Scottsdale, you know, they've they've got some pretty incredible

cars there as they always do, you know.

And, you know, like, should I should I even bring it up?

This could this could rival the GTO sale at Meekam, but it's a 61 Renault Jolly.

And as a Renault or Fiat.

Now, it's a Renault.

This one, this particular one's a Renault.

You know, although I kid around, those jollies go for like.

Yeah, they go for 40, 50, 60.

Yeah, this one's a 90, you know.

And I mean, it's like, really?

But they do have some interesting cars like a 89 Lamborghini Kuntai.

Did you see what the Kuntai went down?

The Kuntai, Kuntai, whatever you want to call it, went for down at Monterey.

Matt, did you see that one?

No, I didn't.

It went for big money.

I'm not even going to guess because I was not.

I didn't write it down.

Didn't make a note.

Yeah, I don't remember.

But it went for way over the money.

Yeah.

And you wonder, RM looks at their, you know, when they made all of their estimate,

their pre-auction estimates like they do, you know, and you kind of go, hmm.

They have a 2016 Aston Martin Vulcan.

1.8 million.

What do you think it'll go for?

That in the money, or is it going to go for more?

They might be, they might be there.

So Aston Martin's been doing a better job at some of these very limited

production versions of the cars to bring up the value of the whole marquee, right?

Like bring up the value of the Aston Martin brand, because those of historically,

just like a British cars kind of in general, just have always, you know,

they're like, ah, we, they don't really get their money worth.

Right, they don't.

They're not a Ferrari at the end of the day.

But we've seen over the years now, you know, Jag has really started to go up in value,

some especially the rare stuff.

I think Aston Martin is kind of getting there.

What's the the 1.77 or something that was like the crazy supercar?

But I think those were getting pretty good money.

Yeah, we'll see.

I couldn't say for sure I haven't followed it, but it feels like it's a fair number.

Well, they have a 2015 Ferrari La Ferrari.

Their pre auction estimate on that car is four and a half to five million.

There and then they have right above it a another Ferrari, a 2012 Ferrari La Ferrari prototype.

And it has the funky wrap on it so that, you know, if a photographer takes picture,

it's hard to tell and estimate available upon request.

Some of those things like what do you think it'll go for?

Here's things like you have to be like the big collector, you know, like David Lee or something

because because like otherwise what are you doing?

You're paying a lot more money for the junkiest version of the La Ferrari that you can never drive.

And that's what it is.

Hey, look what I got.

Look what I got the prototype, man.

You know, I mean, yeah, but they do have it.

It's a cool story when you're walking through the Peterson Museum.

Yeah, like if you're walking through your personal garage and be like, here's the prototype,

you're like, all right, what do you do with it?

I know that panel is not finished, but in the production version.

Yeah, it's like I paid twice as much money for half as much car.

It's like, man, it's a whole different mindset when you already have $85 million

where the car's sitting in there and you're like, do I need another one?

No, I need that one.

I need that one right there.

It's now I do find this interesting.

They have a 2003 Ferrari Enzo and it says pre-option estimate $5 to $6 million.

Then it looks like somebody took a pencil and crossed it off and put $10 million.

Okay, they didn't.

Those Enzo's are gorgeous.

How many people are flying from Meekum in Florida to Scottsdale right now on their

private jets going, dammit, I didn't get to buy what I wanted.

I'm buying that one there.

I gotta go to Arizona now.

That's right.

That's exactly what's going on.

And they're all going there to buy that 64 Shelby 289 that Aaron wants from his dad.

This one's 64 Shelby 289.

It's in British Racing Green, $1,050,000.

Yeah, yeah, that's about right.

Yeah, well, the green 427 just went for $3.3 million.

Yeah, but the 289s, they should be $1,000,000 cars.

You know what we didn't talk about?

Matt, did you happen to see what the two singers,

singer Porsches they had in Meekum went for?

I never even looked at them.

So much talk about the Ferraris and the muscle cars.

I never looked at what those two singers went for.

I didn't look, but singers have been trading for about a million bucks.

Right.

And that's why I was wondering if it's all the craziness.

I'm going to look it up here real quick.

Go ahead.

Brad, why don't you look it up real quick?

I'm going to look it up here.

OK.

Real quick, Brad.

I did real quick.

The 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Turbo Study by Singer, which means it was their prototype.

It was twin turbocharged 3.8 with a flat six and a six-speed turbo study, 1.76.

Yeah.

Wow.

Then they had a 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe classic study by Singer.

So another proto, 1.375.

OK.

Then we had right next to-

I think it's a little high.

I think they're around 1.1.

Well, if you go back to this right here, they have one coming up at RM.

And that is coming up.

And it is a 1990 Singer Navato.

And it is estimated at 950 to 1.2, which is about what they've been going for.

Yeah.

OK.

Right next to that is the, excuse me.

Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster 1.8 to 2.2, which just pains me because at Vision,

we bought one and it was a lightweight car and we paid $85,000 for it and it got sold.

So wouldn't that be nice to still have?

And that's the actual one.

It's selling for 1.8 million.

No, it's not the same.

It's not even a lightweight car.

The lightweight cars go for like three or four now.

It still has the gum that Brad stuck under the dash.

Yeah.

Well, no, I put a vision sticker up under the dash.

Yeah.

All right.

Man, we have really gone through a lot of money here on this show today.

And you know what?

I am on a mission to buy one of those Dreamcars.

An F40, a 930 Turbo, a 427 AC Cobra, something like that.

So why don't you guys go to bondspeedstreetwear.com and lay some bread down, man?

We just redid the website to make it easier to navigate.

Now you can navigate by racing, hot rod, muscle car, trucks.

It's much easier than going through 12 pages of a mixed mash of stuff.

So go check it out at bondspeedstreetwear.com.

And while you're doing that, what should they be lifting up and drinking, Matt?

Well, we've got some Bravago hard seltzer available for sale, drinkbravago.com.

That's right.

And Aaron, if they were happening to want some tattoos, where would they go?

What are you doing that as a side gig now?

You said find yourself a real artist.

Don't go to the one in the mall.

I have nothing to offer currently.

Nothing to offer.

No, nothing to offer.

Now, come on.

That's an understatement.

No, no, nothing to offer.

A short conversation.

You just said you're selling your minis.

So they buy your minis.

No, no way.

I mean, not your minis.

You're just in the Morgan hit me up.

The Morgan.

Absolutely.

55K, 12 years.

Which was featured in the I can't drive 55 video.

It just got cut out.

It was on the chopping room floor.

And Aaron has iPhone footage of it being used in the video.

So I think the company was in transition.

See, man, you got to be creative in your marketing.

Go, yeah, my dad decided not to use it.

But here's the footage and it's just you driving it down the street.

You know, just Brad, I'm having trouble using

AI for anything.

I just feel everything's dishonest right now.

I've hit pause.

Poor dog.

But thank you.

You're hitting pause.

All right, we're just getting goofy now.

So we're going to call it a day.

I'm going to head off to Barrett Jackson.

I'll let you guys know what's going on over there.

Have fun.

Next week, we'll have a lot to talk about.

I'm going to try and sneak over to RM on Friday.

But I'm not guaranteed I'm going to make it because it's a short trip for me.

So anyways, all right, everybody.

Hey, thanks for listening to Shift in Steer.

And we'll be back again next week.

That's a promise, not a threat.

Let's be honest.

The idea of buying a car is exciting, but actually doing it, not so much.

Dealers calling you, asking you when can you come in,

bait and switch sales tactics, yuck.

And you definitely don't want to spend an hour listening to a guy named Rick

check with his manager.

That's why CarEdge's AI negotiator is a game changer.

It contacts the dealer and does the haggling for you,

and it costs less than taking gas.

It's powered by real-time market data and trained to spot dealer tactics and pricing

patterns, so it knows exactly what to push back on to get you the best deal.

Here's how it works.

You pick the CarU1, CarEdge creates an anonymous email and phone number for you,

and then your AI agent reaches out to the dealer on your behalf

and handles the entire negotiation.

No weird phone calls, no pressure sales tactics,

and no quote, I can knock $200 off the price if you buy it today nonsense.

The AI goes back and forth with dealers until it hits the best price.

You get the full chat history, full transparency, and zero headaches.

It's like sending in a car buying assistant with zero patience for sales tactics.

You can try it today back at CarEdge.com slash AI.

That's CarEdge.com slash AI.

It really does help the show to grow.

Thank you for listening.
