Update: All of the cars on this list were successfully sold during the July GAA Classic Car Auction. The prices have been added to the original story.
The summer GAA Classic Car Auction is shaping up to be an interesting event. Not only has COVID-19 rewired the way auction houses are hosting sells, this has been a record time for auction companies. While many people speculated that the collector car market would take a hit, it seems like the opposite is happening, with enthusiasts investing in cars at a higher rate than expected. Here are some of the best No Reserve cars that will cross the auction block this week.
This mid-engine Japanese supercar is a highly collectible modern classic, with prices that position it in a reasonable price range. The example at GAA is a right hand drive model that just might sell for a bargain for the right bidder.

-Import Honda NSX with right hand drive
-17-inch Enkei aluminum wheels with Kumho ZR rated performance tires

The Cougar is a true American classic, that’s always been a little different than other V8 powerered sedans. One would come just shy of calling it a muscle car, even though it shares a lot of the same parts as a Ford Mustang. This clean example would be fantastic for top down summer cruises.
