1965 Shelby Daytona Coupe doesn’t sell, highest-bid comes in at $6.8 million

May 18, 2009 Omar Rana 1965 Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe, Auctions

Dana Mecum, the president of the Mecum auction house, said that the rare 1965 Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe CX2601 you saw last month could bring in $12 to $15 million dollars. Well, this past weekend at the 22nd Dana Mecum Original Spring Classic Auction, the “American Crown Jewel” brought in the highest-bid at $6.5 million.

While that is a heft amount of money to us, it wasn’t enough to meet the car’s reserve price and no records were broken.

Mecum said that he is confident that he’ll get a deal done soon.
