As if the regular Shell V-Power Wildcard model wasn't expensive enough, Authentic Collectables recently revealed plans to auction a one-of-one pre-production sample (REAuction_1_DEC24) of the highly sought-after 2023 Shell V-Power Wildcard model (ACD18F23Z).
This marks the debut of Authentic Collectables' new 'Exclusive Rare Editions' series, where unique models will be auctioned exclusively through their website. Each model in this series will feature 'Exclusive Rare Edition' packaging, a certificate signed by Will Hall detailing the model's significance, and a distinctive sticker identifying its special status.


Bidding remained steady at $4,030 for several days, but unfortunately, due to the time difference with Perth, we were unable to capture the final bid. If you know the final sale price, please let us know by emailing us at contact@diecastdetective.com.au.
Regardless of the final outcome, a sale exceeding $4,000 places this model ahead of all but one car model (M-174) and one truck model (Z01390) in the past three years.
