Young people are talking about the season “going in the Bible.” Hell, even the traditionally staid cadre behind the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance are finding themselves in hyperbole territory, with Gooding & Company going so far as to call the star attraction of their annual auction “the supercar by which all others are judged.” But while 2021 may or may not be all it’s cracked up to be, with this particular vehicle, you can actually believe the hype.

That’s because the supercar in question is a 1995 McLaren F1, a hallowed name in the climate-controlled halls of car collections the world over.

It’s not just the history of the car that makes it so covetable, though being the first consumer car from racing outfit McLaren designed by the legendary Gordon Murray is a huge part of it.

Instead, the main selling point of this particular McLaren is that it’s a driver’s car that has barely been driven. .

That means, come August 13 when the Pebble Beach Auctions begin, collectors from around the world are likely to have their sights set on this McLaren, chassis 029, the only one delivered in the color Creighton Brown

Back in 2013 after that year’s Pebble Beach sale, Hagerty noted that McLaren F1 prices were “skyrocketing,” calling the $8.47M sale of a 1997 model “a shocking surprise for a car that could be found for $2M-$4M in 2010.” Now, that same company puts the average value of a 1995 edition at a whopping $19.5M.
