Whether you’re a staunch American made muscle car fan…or even an off-road racing enthusiast, it’s easy to admire the powerful elegance that the Italian Ferrari carmaker has produced for over half a century. This classic example, the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO just set a record at a RM Sotheby’s auction in Monterey, CA Saturday.

The Ferrari GTO stands as one of the most beautiful and exclusive cars of all time, and it boasts a racing record to back up its unparalleled collectibility. This, however, has seen prices soar to insane levels in recent times, and things don’t appear to be cooling down one bit. Case in point is a 1962 250 GTO, chassis No. 3413, that sold for… Read More
The third of only 36 ever produced, this 250 GTO has an illustrious racing history. It was first driven by Le Mans champion Phil Hill; Eduardo Lualdi-Gabardi won 9 out of 10 straight races behind it’s wheel and Gianni Bulgari won the notoriously difficult Targa Florio in this car in 1963…

A wide, purposeful body hugs the ground, with massive air intakes up front, more inlets on the rear fenders and buttresses behind each seat. A central color block that runs down the length of the car is said to symbolize the movement of air over the convertible’s body. To keep weight low, Ferrari installed aluminum plates instead of carpeting and replaced the driver’s-side interior door handle with a fabric strap. Read More
