What we have here is probably the greatest road and
track car ever made. It combines sexy styling, championship-winning
engineering and exclusivity. Only 39 copies exist and
each comes with her own history.
The
Ferrari 250 GTO is perhaps the most desirable and valuable
car in the world,and is surrounded with controversy
and myth. While more modern supercars surpass the GTO
in terms of performance, none excel better in both form
and function. During its heyday, the GTO dominated the
World Sports Car championship, and it is still one of
the most beautiful shapes ever to grace a Ferrari chassis.
For
these reasons, the GTO is one of the most desired and
expensive cars. In fact, chassis 3729GT received a high
bid of nine million dollars at Bonhams’ 1997 Gstaad
Auction.Earlyer in the 1990s, when prices for rare and
classic cars were at a fevered pitch, an example sold
for $15,000,000.
