Top 5 Coolest Cars on ACV Auctions in October 2024

We come across some interesting finds in October that are either classics or soon-to-be classics. Here are five standout vehicles we sold, spanning different decades-starting in the 1960s and taking us all the way to the 2010s.

1964 Chevy Impala

A classic in lowrider culture, this '64 Impala already comes outfitted with air suspension and an upgraded audio system. What makes the 1964 Impala a favorite among lowrider enthusiasts is its unique X-frame chassis and expansive, flat body panels, which make it perfect for custom modifications and the installation of hydraulic systems¹.

^‍1969 Chevy Camaro SS

Saying the 1969 Camaro was popular was an understatement. The 1969 Camaro was probably peak year for the Camaro…and nothing was more iconic than having a Hugger Orange SS Camaro like this one. This one is equipped with a 350 cubic inch V8 engine with 300 Horsepower².

1987 Porsche 911 Carrera

It's hard to think of a car that captures the essence of the 1980s more than a Porsche, and the 1987 911 Carrera is a prime example. As one of the last models from the G-Series body style, it retains the rear-engine, air-cooled layout that Porsche fanboys love. What sets the 1987 model apart is the debut of the G50 5-speed manual transmission, which provided smoother gear changes³.

2006 BMW M5‍

We had to include this M5 on the list, primarily because of its 5.0-liter V10 engine-built just for the M5 back in 2006. With a press of the "power" button right next to the shifters, it pushes out all 500 horsepower at 7,750 rpm and 384 lb-ft of torque at 6,100 rpm, going from 0-60 in just 4.7 seconds. In short, it's fast⁴.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser

The Toyota FJ Cruiser, produced from 2006 to 2014, is on its way to becoming a classic, with 2014 marking its final year in the U.S. This 4X2 model features a 4.0-liter V6 engine delivering 260 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque. With ample ground clearance, available all-terrain tires, and advanced off-road systems, it handles rugged trails with ease, rivaling the Jeep Wrangler⁵.
