When people think Indy 500 pace car editions, Camaros and Corvettes often come to mind, because so many of them were those. However, other makes and models received the Indy 500 special edition treatment, too. What were some of those? Here are seven examples from the upcoming Mecum Indy auction on …
Wow, forgot about the Cutlas Ciera. My parents had one. Not a Pace Car, though. It did have the factory mags and tach, however.
The Fiero sold for $8800.
The rest hit the block this week.
Looking at the list of Indy 500 pace cars shows that the last non-GM brand to hold that honor was Dodge (Viper) back in 1996 while it’s been all Chevy since 2002.
Okay, what did these sell for?
1994 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Pace Car Edition Convertible: $33,000 (way below the estimate of $50,000-$75,000)
1970 Oldsmobile 442 Pace Car Edition: Didn't meet the reserve. Last bid? $57,000.
1984 Pontiac Fiero Pace Car Edition Coupe: $8800 - that's the low end of the Hagerty value scale.
1981 Buick Regal Pace Car Edition: $19,800.
1996 Dodge Ram Pace Truck Edition Pickup: $47,300 - more than the Mustang, but much less than the estimate of $50,000-$75,000.
1993 Chevrolet C1500 Pace Truck Edition Pickup: $33,000 - way above the estimate of $15,000-$25,000.
1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am 20th Anniversary Pace Car Edition: $60,500 - way above the estimate of $35,000-$45,000.
1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera Convertible: $8800.

I think I’m most impressed by the Ciera sale.

Mecum certainly seems like a good place to get some really good deals, depending on what you're looking for.
