Gordon Murray S1 LM Becomes Most Expensive New Car Ever Sold at Auction

The final chassis of a five-car run sold for $20.63 million, setting a new auction record for a new production car, with bespoke customization guided by Gordon Murray.

  • On November 21, the Gordon Murray S1 LM sold for $20,630,000 at the amfAR charity gala in Wynn Las Vegas, setting a new auction record for a new car.
  • Styled with Le Mans links and lightweight engineering, the car is the final chassis of a five-unit production run, making it extremely rare.
  • In a dramatic stunt, the S1 LM arrived suspended under a helicopter and dropped into Wynn Las Vegas, while a fast round of competitive offers pushed the price, and the package included a 500-page monograph.
  • The sale establishes a new auction benchmark as the $20,630,000 result sets a new benchmark for non-charitable sales and marks a defining moment for Gordon Murray's brand impact.
  • Earlier reports said all five were reportedly purchased at Monterey Car Week, but Gordon Murray Special Vehicles has not clarified the status or delivery timeline of the other four cars.
