The previous record was held by a 1967 Shelby GT500 that sold for $2.2 million at Mecum’s Kissimmee auction last year.Īfter the auction, the current owner, who had consigned the car to Mecum for the sale, told CNN he was happy with the result. It went for $3.7 million, including auction fees, at the annual Mecum collector car auction in Kissimmee, Florida. A dull green 1968 Ford Mustang GT driven by Steve McQueen in the movie “Bullitt” just became the most valuable Ford Mustang ever sold at auction.
