by A used Ford F-150 Raptor R was sold for a record price
Although the car market has gradually stabilized after the pandemic, some unique models are still sold at a premium. A prime example is the Ford F-150 Raptor R, which received a final bid at the Bring a Trailer auction that was $24,000 higher than the original price.
This is not an ordinary pickup—the base Raptor with a 450-hp V6 engine costs $78,905. However, the previous owner opted for the more powerful version with a 5.2-liter supercharged V8 producing 720 hp, allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds. Additional options included an upgraded suspension, 37-inch tires, and a differential lock.
“The auction site has already sold a number of such Raptor Rs this year, and most of them went for prices above the recommended retail value.”
The sold specimen had only 476 miles on the odometer, making it practically new. Demand for this model remains high due to its unique characteristics—a combination of sports car power with the practicality of a pickup.
