  • Auctioneers: RM Sotheby's
  • Est. value: $20 million to $25 million

This car is expected to sell for roughly 10 times the price of that 820 horsepower Aston Martin. But, then, this is the rare and beautiful Jaguar D-Type. With its giant fin, it's an instantly recognizable auto-racing icon. Its 250 horsepower seems almost quaint by today's standards, but the D-Type was a revelation in its day. This D-type -- this very car -- won the famous LeMans 24-hour race 1956.
