Mecum’s Kissimmee 2026 auction is set to showcase a standout group of cars from The Medeiros Collection, a selection that ranges from European exotics to homegrown American favorites. Crossing the block at no reserve on Wednesday, January 14, the group reflects a collector with broad taste and a clear appreciation for both engineering and era-defining style. Three early headliners include a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am, a 1991 Ferrari Testarossa, and a 2009 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
Leading with American performance nostalgia, the 1982 Pontiac Trans Am captures the early third-gen spirit with its V-8 engine, 4-speed manual with T-handle shifter, and period-correct touches like Recaro bucket seats, rear window louvers, and mesh-style wheels. It’s equipped with power accessories, air conditioning, and pop-up headlights—reminders of when tech and flair were part of the Trans Am identity. With no reserve, it will be a telling gauge of the current market for early ’80s performance coupes.
On the exotic side, the 1991 Ferrari Testarossa arrives in Rosso over Tan Connolly leather, paired with the iconic 5-speed gated shifter and a 4.9-liter flat-12—a formula many consider peak analog Ferrari. This example benefits from a recent major service, including timing belt components, ignition and fuel system parts, and fluid and filter replacements. With its Pininfarina design, Bosch KE-Jetronic injection, and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, the Testarossa remains one of the most recognizable poster cars of the era.
For those seeking modern performance with open-top capability, the 2009 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet blends twin-turbo punch with everyday usability. Powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six and Tiptronic S automatic, it features all-wheel drive, the Sport Chrono package, red-caliper brakes, and an active rear spoiler. Inside, tan leather, power-adjustable seating, automatic climate control, and an infotainment screen bring comfort to its high-boost personality.
The Medeiros Collection’s mix of styles and eras makes it one of the more compelling groupings set for Kissimmee. With all cars offered at no reserve, bidders will determine the value—whether they’re chasing ’80s pop-culture cool, poster-car Italian drama, or modern German turbo engineering.
