Mecum Auctions returned to Monterey in 2015 for its seventh sale there and ended up recording the highest total of the event\u2019s history. In all, 380 of 657 vehicles sold (a 58 percent\u00a0sell-through rate) for $44.6 million. The overall figure was a third higher than 2014\u2019s $33.5 million even though the number of cars offered was essentially the same.<\/span><\/p>\n Mecum\u2019s top seller for the week was a highly original\u00a0<\/span>1969 Lamborghini Miura P400 S<\/a><\/strong> with 31,000 miles that sold for $2,530,000 \u2014 or about $750,000 more than what a<\/span>\u00a0Miura SV<\/a><\/strong> might sell for. The\u00a0Lamborghini went\u00a0for slightly more than a triple black<\/span>\u00a01970 Hemi Cuda<\/a><\/strong> convertible with an automatic that\u00a0brought $2,475,000. This was the first time since June 2014 that we have seen one sell publicly, and the price confirms that interest in these low-production muscle cars remains strong.<\/span><\/p>\n Those two sales aside, the star of the auction was certainly Steve McQueen\u2019s<\/span> 1976 Porsche 930<\/a><\/strong>. The car was McQueen\u2019s last special order Porsche, and carried a few small modification that the \u201cKing of Cool\u201d made, including a dashboard switch that would kill the rear lights. After the end of a spirited bout of bidding, the car recorded a final price of $2,145,000, seriously besting the $1,375,000 that McQueen\u2019s<\/span>\u00a01970 911 S<\/a><\/strong> sold for back in 2011.<\/span><\/p>\n Other notable sales include a pair of Porsche Carrera GTs that sold for $1,100,000 and $852,000, showing just how hot the market is for modern supercars at the moment, and $198,000 for undoubtedly the world\u2019s best Toyota Land Cruiser wagon. On the low end of the spectrum, a<\/span>\u00a01985 Buick Grand National<\/a><\/strong> sold for $9,900, and a<\/span>\u00a02002 Ford Thunderbird<\/a><\/strong> traded for $12,100. The\u00a0<\/span>Ferrari Testarossa<\/a><\/strong> that starred in the \u201cMiami Vice\u201d television series failed to sell after being bid to $600,000<\/span><\/p>\n Top 10:<\/span><\/p>\n Mecum\u2019s next auction will be held in Dallas, Tex., Sept. 16-19.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
