Read the full story on Modern Car Collector
Representing a long-standing rivalry among Ferrari, Porsche, and McLaren, the so-called Holy Trinity of Hypercars is a thing of legend among enthusiasts. For the model year 2013, these three automakers, each one a titan of performance engineering, released a plug-in hybrid hypercar which demonstrated the best they’d put into a road vehicle up to that point.

Those hypercars, the Ferrari LaFerrari, Porsche 918 Spyder, and McLaren P1, ignited the imaginations of many and helped a number of enthusiasts see that plug-in hybrid powertrains could be used to push the performance envelope to new heights. Now, one of each will be featured in an upcoming auction.
First up is a 2015 Ferrari La Ferrari that has under 1,800 miles on the odometer and been in the hands of two owners. It wears Rosso Corsa, the iconic red many love to see on a Ferrari, with Pelle Neri leather for the interior, creating an undeniably striking combination.
Next is a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder with a GT Silver Metallic exterior with a black interior featuring yellow accents. The auction house hasn’t released details about mileage, ownership history, etc. yet but the supplied photos present an impeccable example of Porsche’s hypercar.
Finally, the 2015 McLaren P1 is loaded with bespoke features, including an exterior which pays homage to the iconic Gulf Oil livery. In fact, those colors are used as accents in the black interior, a nice touch which really sets this apart from other P1s. And with only 1,913 miles on the odometer, it looks to have been cared for meticulously.
All three hypercars constituting the Holy Trinity will be crossing the block during RM Sotheby’s Dare to Dream Collection event, which will be held in Toronto, Ontario on May 31 to June 1. The auction house estimates the LaFerrari will auction for $3,850,000 to $4,250,000. For the 918 Spyder, it estimates the top bid to be $1,500,000 to $1,800,000. And for the P1 the official estimate is $1,750,000 to $2,250,000.
Excitement will be in the air as these three cross the auction block.
