A LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Will Cross the Auction Block Together
The Holy Trinity of hypercars is about to cross the auction block together.
RM Sotheby’s says its Villa Erba auction will be the first time all three hypercars are offered at one auction event with a 2014 Ferrari LaFerrari, 2016 McLaren P1 GTR and 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder being offered on May 27. The auction is held in conjunction with the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Lake Como, Italy, and will see 50 luxury and classic vehicles crossing the auction block.
The 2014 LaFerrari has just 124 miles (200 kilometers) on the odometer and is being presented in “factory-fresh” condition. It’s finished in traditional Rosso Corsa with a black roof, matching black wing mirrors, a black interior with red highlights and black four-point harnesses. The exotic was first delivered to its owner in Italy in April 2014 and also features Rosso-colored brake calipers, telemetry kit and cameras, front nose lifter and forged 20-inch wheels.

The 2016 McLaren P1 GTR being auctioned off has actually been converted to be road legal by Lanzante. There’s about 224 miles (360 km) on the odometer and is one of 27 P1 GTRs ever converted for road use. Offering a true “race car for the road” experience, the road-going P1 GTR is often considered more desirable than the standard P1. The car has only participated in one track event and has seen minimal road use from its one and only private owner.
Lastly, the 2015 Porsche 918 Weissach Spyder heading to auction is the only 918 produced in the German automaker’s historic Arrow Blue. It has only had one owner and has just under 6,800 miles (11,000 km) on the odometer. The Porsche 918 Spyder has been recently serviced and has also been outfitted with the front axle lift system, while many of the leather interior pieces have been swapped out for Alcantara bits.
