The Stutz Bearcat was built from 1914 to 1924.
The Bearcat, the most traded version: The original Stutz Bearcat defined American sporting motoring in the 1910s, earning legendary status as the country's first true sports car. Its T-head 6.0-liter four-cylinder produced 60 horsepower—substantial for the era—while the stripped-down roadster body prioritized performance over comfort. Built in Indianapolis during Stutz's racing heyday, each Bearcat embodied the company's 'win on Sunday, sell on Monday' philosophy. The model's racing success at Indianapolis and Daytona established Stutz as America's premier performance marque. With 759 examples built, original Bearcats are exceptionally rare today, representing the dawn of American automotive enthusiasm. Their cultural impact extends far beyond their numbers—the Bearcat became shorthand for speed and excitement in popular culture. For collectors of significant American automobiles, an original Bearcat represents the genesis of domestic sporting car tradition and one of motoring's most influential designs.
