The RUF Rt 12 was introduced in 2004 and built on Porsche's then-new 997 platform. Despite being based on the next generation model, the Rt 12 utilized the previous era 996 Turbo's Mezger-designed engine, albeit in significantly upgraded form, including a bored and de-stroked 3.8-liter option that could propel the Rt 12 to a claimed top speed of around 220 miles per hour. Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter flat-six engine, rated at 650 horsepower and 642 lb-ft of torque. Output is sent to all four wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission and a permanent all-wheel drive system.

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1968 Ford Bronco 289 3-Speed. According to data from Hagerty that was published in 2020, an “Average” (good-condition) first-generation Ford Bronco at the time was valued at around $40,000, but author Greg Ingold also stated that near-perfect V8 examples could go for easily double that figure. Needless to say, it takes deep pockets to get into the vintage Bronco game. And that’s based on four-year-old data. How’s the market in 2024? https://lnkd.in/grvbVzX5

With a jaw-dropping MSRP starting at $608,358, the 2024 Lamborghini Revuelto is more than just a car - it's a statement.  Boasting over 1,000 horsepower thanks to its hybrid V12 engine, the Revuelto is Lamborghini's first electrified supercar, combining iconic design with cutting-edge performance. Whether you're tearing up the track or cruising the streets, this unruly machine is built to dominate, with its sleek lines, scissor doors, and a roaring exhaust that’ll turn heads everywhere. And let’s not forget the name: Revuelto, inspired by a legendary Spanish fighting bull, perfectly captures the wild spirit of this extraordinary ride. Sure, the electric-only range is just 6 miles, but who needs that when you’ve got this kind of power under the hood? Would you take this electrified bull for a spin? #carbusiness #autodealers #carsalesman #cardealers

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster replica. A car’s life doesn’t have to end when the odometer hits a certain number. Engine wears out? You can get it rebuilt, replace it with the same one from a donor car, or swap in a more powerful crate engine. Smash in a fender? There’s always the junkyard or, depending on your car, you can get a new panel – even a new frame – from an aftermarket company. Another option is a replica, especially if you want a vehicle with a certain look, such as a Shelby Cobra. https://lnkd.in/gswaCAqv
