Broad Arrow Auctions Presents 150+ Collector Cars at Amelia Island (March 6-7, 2026)
March 6 @ 5:00 am - March 7 @ 5:00 am
$25
Broad Arrow Auctions will present more than 150 collector cars from the 1990s and 2000s on March 6–7, 2026, at the Ritz-Carlton on Amelia Island, Florida. The two-day sale coincides with the Amelia Concours and emphasizes culturally significant performance models from the turn of the millennium.
Starting Lineup
The sale features a 1996 Nissan NISMO 400R, one of the most sought-after Japanese performance cars of its era. Produced in extremely limited numbers, this example is number eight of 44 built and remains among a small number believed to be in the United States.
The NISMO 400R developed cult status long before legal U.S. importation became possible. Its reputation was fueled partly by appearances in late-1990s racing video games, where it gained recognition among enthusiasts who had never encountered one in person.
Also headlining the sale is a 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet, an ultra-rare open-top variant. This model derived from the brand’s success in German touring car racing and combined race-inspired engineering with luxury finishes.
The CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet was among the fastest four-seat convertibles of its time. The Amelia Island example was delivered new in Germany, spent time overseas, and was imported to the U.S. in 2024.
Porsche models dominate the modern classic selection with 34 examples in the sale. Additionally, four Rufs are included, representing the German tuning house’s most desirable creations.
Top 5 Highlight Vehicles
- 1966 Ferrari 275 GTS: The top-estimated lot at Broad Arrow’s Amelia Auction 2026. This rare Pininfarina-bodied grand tourer features a 3.3-liter Colombo V12 engine producing 280 horsepower and a 5-speed manual transmission. Finished in silver over black leather with matching numbers and fresh restoration, it exemplifies Ferrari’s grand touring heritage during the Enzo era.
- 1997 Ruf BTR II: One of four Rufs in the sale, estimated at $850,000–$1.2 million. This twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six delivers over 500 horsepower with a 6-speed manual and wide-body aerodynamics. Legendary for sub-4-second 0–60 mph acceleration, it represents the pinnacle of 1990s Porsche tuning.
- 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet: An ultra-rare open-top variant derived from German touring car racing success. This high-performance convertible combined race-inspired engineering with luxury finishes and was among the fastest four-seat convertibles of its era. The example was delivered new in Germany and imported to the U.S. in 2024.
- 1996 Nissan NISMO 400R: Number eight of 44 produced. This sought-after Japanese performance icon gained cult recognition through late-1990s racing video games before becoming legally importable to the United States. It remains among a small number believed to be in American hands.
