The most passionate car collectors and car enthusiasts will gather for one of the most anticipated automotive events of the year. RM Sotheby's will hold its first auction on March 9 in Dubai, which will feature three of the most desirable cars in existence, reports Hypebeast.

2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss, the super-rare open-top speedster, boasts 641 hp and a design inspired by the legendary 300 SLR racing car. A total of 75 models were produced.

One of only three ever built, the 2016 Koenigsegg Agera RSR features a 1,160hp V8 engine, advanced technology such as hollow carbon wheels, and innovative Koenigsegg Dihedral Synchro-Helix doors, making it an engineering masterpiece and a rare hypercar.

Finally, the 2023 Aston Martin Valkyrie Coupé defies convention with its Formula 1-inspired design and Cosworth-developed V12 hybrid engine. Limited to just 150 units, this 160hp beast blurs the lines between road and track, offering owners the opportunity to experience unbridled driving pleasure.

In addition to these three stunning cars, other lots include famous classics and rare cars to suit every automotive taste.
