Shelby Cobra 289 – $1.6 million
The story of Shelby Cobra 289 is a widely known one, but it’s still interesting enough to be told again. In 1962, Shelby used the AC Ace body and installed the Ford 289 V8, creating one of the first Anglo-American hybrids and one of the period’s best sports/racing cars. Cobra has become an enormous legend amongst all car enthusiasts, and due to its limited production and high collectivity, auction prices go well over $1 million.
