Houston’s car-collecting set has a headline-grabber to eyeball next January: a 2007 Ferrari F430 once owned by President Donald J. Trump is set to cross the block at Mecum Auctions’ Kissimmee sale. Showing fewer than 10,000 miles and accompanied by original paperwork plus a “DJT” plate, the scarlet prancing horse is primed to draw stares at the two‑week spectacle.
Mecum lot details
The F430 appears as Lot R806, slated for Saturday, Jan. 17 during the Kissimmee 2026 sale, and lists VIN ZFFEW58AX70153916 with an odometer reading of 9,493 miles, according to Mecum Auctions. The lot page features 47 photos and reminds would‑be buyers that information is provided by the consignor and should be verified in person.
Paperwork and a presidential signature
Included in the sale materials: the original title — showing the Trump Tower address and the former owner’s signature — plus the factory window sticker, collector catnip for provenance, according to the Houston Chronicle. The same report notes an edited promo clip for the lot that includes Trump saying, “I always wanted a Ferrari.”
What’s on the F430
Finished in Rosso Corsa and wearing Scuderia Ferrari cloisonné fender shields, the car sports a hand‑crafted beige leather interior; photos also show the unmistakable “DJT” plate, per Mecum Auctions. The listing flags the low mileage and presence of original accessories — big checkmarks for modern Ferrari shoppers.
Kissimmee dates and viewing
Mecum’s Kissimmee sale runs Jan. 6–18, 2026, with the company already hyping its lineup for the two‑week event, per a release republished by Motor Sports NewsWire. Prospective bidders should plan to inspect cars in person where possible and review consignor disclosures before raising a paddle.
Why collectors will watch
Celebrity ownership has a habit of nudging values north of the model’s typical range, and past chatter around this particular F430’s listings and valuations pointed to mid‑six‑figure interest, according to Car Magazine. With low miles, original docs and built‑in notoriety, it’s likely to tempt both Ferrari purists and shoppers chasing a conversation piece.
Whether it hammers for a trophy sum or something closer to the model’s norm, expect this to be one of Kissimmee’s buzziest lots. We’ll track results and on‑the‑ground action as the sale unfolds in January.
