PLEASANT VALLEY, N.Y., December 3, 2009; United Country Absolute Auction & Realty (www.aarbids.com) announces the online auction of a one-of-a-kind 2010 Ford Mustang GT known as the "New York Yankees Mustang," according to Rob Doyle, auctioneer.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase a one-of-a-kind commemorative collector car," said Doyle. "This New York Yankees 2010 Ford Mustang GT is the only one that was offered as a Tri-State Sweepstakes prize commemorating the opening of the brand new Yankees stadium."

Doyle said the drawing took place before the Yankees won the 2009 World Series. "The World Series win for the Yankees this year only adds to the provenance of this unique collector car. Plus, the dashboard is signed by the 2009 SI Sportsman of the Year, Derek Jeter."

The one-of-a-kind Mustang has less than 1,000 miles on the odometer and comes complete with all paperwork validating the authenticity of the car and copies of the publicity pictures. In addition to the signature Yankees pinstripe paint job and logo, the Mustang has a 4.6L V-8 engine, an automatic transmission, interior blue lighting throughout, 19-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry, ambient interior lighting, convertible top, leather interior, Shaker 500 AM/FM/CD/MP3 stereo system, anti-lock brakes with traction control, Ford cold air induction system, side airbags, and power seats.

"This is a fantastic opportunity," commented Doyle. "The original winner of the vehicle, a lifetime Yankees fan, has commissioned us to auction the car so that he can put the proceeds towards the education of his children. This is the investment opportunity of a lifetime for sports memorabilia collectors and Yankees fans alike. There is no duplicate to this car. There is only one."

The online only auction ends Tuesday, December 15, 2009 at 8pm eastern. The auction is open to the public. For more information on registering to bid in this auction, call 800-243-0061 or visit www.aarbids.com.
