SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Barrett-Jackson will feature an incredibly diverse docket of collectible automobiles, all with No Reserve, during the annual Palm Beach Auction held at the South Florida Fairgrounds on April 18-20, 2024. Included within the docket will be many highly desirable vintage and late-model European collectibles. Leading the highly coveted group of European performance cars crossing the block is a stunning red 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Saloon that was fully restored in 1998 by R.S. Williams of London. Modern European horsepower and design is showcased by a 2020 Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, which is one of only 900 produced and equipped with the Carbon Package.

The restored 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Saloon features an upgraded engine producing 310 horsepower and is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The restoration also included a complete brake and suspension overhaul, as well as a chassis and bare metal repaint to Fiesta Red. It comes with documentation that includes British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certified Copy of Factory Record.

Another vintage mid-engine supercar set to cross the block is an early-built pre-L 1972 De Tomaso Pantera that is powered by a 351ci V8 engine paired with a 5-speed ZF manual transmission. This original condition Pantera is equipped with the OEM interior, glass and engine components while new cooling system hoses were added. It rides on the original Pantera Campagnolo magnesium wheels wrapped with the original tires and has only 1,592 miles.

Powered by a 759-horsepower engine with a 7-speed single-clutch automatic transmission, the 2020 Lamborghini Aventador SVJ on the docket is one of the fastest Lamborghinis produced, with the model setting a record for a production car at Nürburgring with a lap time of 6:44.97. This example features an Alcantara interior, premium sound, navigation, Bluetooth and dual climate control and has only 2,865 miles. Lot #710 is a hardtop convertible 2017 Ferrari 488 Spider powered by a turbocharged V8 engine mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission. The black and red interior features Daytona-style seats, Ferrari Cavallino stitched on the headrests and a carbon-fiber steering wheel.

A 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo S on offer is capable of speeds over 225 mph, and accelerates 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds. It is finished in Sapphire Blue over a gray interior with Porsche-embossed seats and includes the Sport Chrono and Light Design Packages. Finished in Rosso Corsa Red, a 1990 Ferrari Testarossa is powered by its original 4.9-liter flat 12-cylinder engine capable of 380 horsepower, backed by a 5-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential and controlled by a gated shifter.
