Steve McQueen’s 1970 911S, the one featured in his 1971 film Le Mans, is set to be auctioned by RM at Pebble Beach this August.

Apparently McQueen used the car as his personal vehicle while filming in France – and it features as the king of cool’s character drives through the French countryside while reflecting on life, death and racing.

Slate grey with black leather interior and rocking those touchstone Fuchs alloys, we imagine this usable classic will raise a healthy penny.
