A 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, a two-seater coupe, was auctioned off in California for a record-breaking $48.4 million the highest auction price ever for a vehicle. Only 36 of the Ferrari 250 GTO were made between 1962 and 1964, making it a rarity and highly desirable for collectors. This particular Ferrari raced in the 1962 Italian GT Championships and won. The car has a top speed of 174 mph.
This was the third 250 GTO made and it comes with a strong lineage of racing wins and achievements. The new owners now have access to highly exclusive auto events. Fancy.
While this weekend’s auction sale was a record, it doesn’t beat the sale price of a 1963 version of the Ferrari that sold earlier this year for a whooping $70 million.
