Every year, Monterey Car Week attracts the world\u2019s leading collectors. But in August 2026, one lot is likely to capture the full attention of enthusiasts of Lamborghini<\/a>. Four exceptional models, brought together by the American specialist Curated in partnership with RM Sotheby\u2019s, will be offered at the prestigious Monterey auction. Their combined estimate already exceeds $6 million\u2026 and the final result could be even higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few days before the event, Curated had actually offered a sneak peek at this initiative in a video filmed at its Miami showroom, where its founders mentioned several \u00abrevolutionary Lamborghinis\u00bb headed for Monterey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four Lamborghinis that tell the brand's story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rather than focusing on the latest models, Curated has chosen to tell the story of nearly thirty years of Lamborghini history through four cars, each representing a pivotal era: Countach<\/a>, Diablo<\/a> and two Murci\u00e9lagos that are particularly sought after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The centerpiece is undoubtedly this 1979 Countach LP400 S Series I, estimated at between $2.2 million and $2.6 million. Only 50 examples of this first series were built, but this one takes it a step further. It has just 1,803 km on the odometer and retains its original paint, interior, and even tires. According to RM Sotheby\u2019s, it is likely the best-preserved example in the world. Having remained virtually unseen for decades, this Countach is a true testament to Sant\u2019Agata\u2019s golden age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next to it, a 1991 Diablo evokes the 1990s. Estimated at between $550,000 and $700,000, it is one of only six hardtop Diablos produced in Bianco white with a Champagne interior. Its odometer reads just 1,349 km, and it also retains its original paint and interior, making it a true time capsule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two Murci\u00e9lagos That Are Nowhere to Be Found<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both Murci\u00e9lago<\/a> The pieces selected for this sale perfectly illustrate why this model is currently on the rise in the collectors' market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is a 2010 Murci\u00e9lago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce, estimated at between $1.75 million and $2.25 million. Already extremely rare\u2014with production reportedly totaling only about 165 units instead of the 350 originally planned\u2014this SV boasts even more exclusive features. It has had only one owner since new, has just 791 miles on the odometer, and features Nero Aldebaran paint\u2014a finish reportedly applied to only eight U.S. models\u2014as well as the discreet \u00ablow wing\u00bb rear spoiler chosen by just three U.S. customers. RM Sotheby\u2019s describes it as a true \u00abghost,\u00bb as this car has remained out of the public eye for more than a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second is the Murci\u00e9lago 40th Anniversary, produced in 2003 to celebrate Lamborghini\u2019s 40th anniversary. Only 50 were built, all painted in the spectacular pearlescent Verde Artemis. The one on offer in Monterey is number 50 of 50, one of 19 destined for the North American market. It has only covered about 6,700 miles and was owned for nearly twenty years by the president of Lamborghini Toronto. Under the hood is the naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V12 paired with the highly sought-after six-speed manual transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than $6 million\u2026 even before the first gavel fell<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you simply add up the low estimates, these four Lamborghinis are already worth $5.35 million. With the high estimates, the total comes to $6.75 million. dollars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But recent history shows that the rarest Lamborghinis regularly exceed their estimates when they have low mileage, exceptional specifications, and an impeccable history. And these four cars happen to possess all of these qualities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Curated, this sale also serves as an exceptional showcase. In recent years, the American specialist has established itself as one of the world\u2019s leading authorities on historic Lamborghinis, seeking out exclusively extremely original examples with low mileage that are often unknown to the market. In its recent video, the team explained that it is constantly on the hunt for these \u00abghost cars,\u00bb which in some cases have never been publicly offered for sale since their original delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The verdict will be announced August 13\u201315 during Monterey Car Week. One thing already seems certain: seeing a Countach Series I, a nearly new Diablo, and two of the world\u2019s most desirable Murci\u00e9lagos all together in a single auction will remain a particularly rare event, even for regulars at the biggest car auctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
