The Executive Agency's Shilin branch is set to host a "Dream Car Auction" on July 14, offering a collection of six luxury vehicles seized from a fraud syndicate. The auction, conducted on behalf of the Taipei District Prosecutors Office, aims to liquidate assets and prevent further depreciation of the high-value cars.
Among the coveted vehicles is a 2019 gold Ferrari 812 GTS, a rare modern production car featuring a large-displacement naturally aspirated V12 engine, highly sought after by collectors. Also up for bid is a 2014 light yellow Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, previously recognized as a "supercar of the year." The lineup further includes a 2017 white Rolls-Royce Wraith coupe, known for its elegant design and British craftsmanship, and a 2017 light blue Porsche 718 Boxster S.
Completing the impressive selection are a 2023 Taycan 4 CT electric model in light purple and a 2022 white Mercedes-Benz A180. To allow potential buyers a closer look, a "Dream Car Appreciation Session" will be held from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM on the auction day, preceding the bidding.
Registration for the auction opens at 9:30 AM and closes at 10:30 AM on July 14. Prospective bidders must present identification and pay a NT$3,000 cash deposit to receive a bidding number. Due to limited numbers, early registration is advised. The winning bidder must pay the full amount immediately via bank transfer or credit card.
