Filed under: Classics , Convertible , Performance , Auctions , Ferrari Vintage Ferraris consistently top the list of the most expensive cars ever sold. In private treaty sales, the 250 GTO is king, but even at public auctions, it’s the horses that prance the highest. After the Mercedes W196 grand prix racer that set the world record this past July at nearly $30 million, the list of eight-figure sales is populated almost entirely by Ferraris: a 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder for $27.5 million, the pair of ’57 Testa Rossas that sold separately a few years ago for $17 and $13 million apiece, the 250 LM recently went for over $14 million and the 250 GT SWB California Spider that sold in 2008 for $11 million.

Filed under: Classics , Auctions , Ferrari , Racing If you’re one of the very fortunate souls that has $12 to $15 million burning a very large hole in your pocket, we’ve found the perfect way to liberate yourself from the burden of so much money – buy this Ferrari , which is being put up for auction. It’s a supremely rare Ferrari 250 LM, the 24th member of a 32-car run, that rolled off the assembly line on what we imagine was a brilliant, sunny Italian summer’s day in July of 1964. Officially known as Chassis 6107, this 250 LM is rare because unlike its brothers, it wasn’t originally bought to be a race car

Filed under: Classics , Auctions , Ferrari The New York Times’ Wheels blog has a really interesting story on a pair of Ferraris that are set to be auctioned off in Monterey during the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance . While the two cars are similar on the surface, their differing histories and Ferrari’s attitude towards one of them has led to a sort of experimental auction process. On the one hand, we have one of ten 1967 275 GTB/4 NART Spiders , in the classic Rosso Corsa and appearing at RM Auctions and seen above.
