Ferrari 250 GTO Bianco Speciale – This Unicorn 250 GTO Is Finally for Sale

[89AKurt]

Here is your chance to get this fabulous Ferrari GTO, the only white one, raced by the only Triple Crown winner.  Does the forum allow a betting pool, like how much will it cross the block for?

$ 25 Million

Just in time, as I was having difficulty deciding what to get myself for Christmas.

Whew. That was close.

Unique color and a racing provenance?  $45 million.  Didn't the last (publicly acknowledged) sale of a 250 GTO go for $35-$37 million?

[iamsuperdan]

.

A "normal" 250 GTO already sells for $25-35 mil, so something this unique? $50 mill easy.

 

[Xingu]

It's going to be over $100 mil.

Yikes

Ok the last 250 on the auction block was $42,000,000. The private sale of the silver 250 was bought privately for $72,000,000. So $100,000,000 is possible. History, history, history is everything. …. For instance take a regular 1965 mustang fastback. It sells for this much. If Carroll Shelby put his number on that car what is it worth now? Carroll Shelby has history. And if a famous race car driver raced or owned that car it goes up in price. History. Yeah $100,000,000 is possible.

It's currently on display at the MCACN show in Chicago

I'm going to have to give this one a pass, because there's just no way I can get a Christmas tree that's big enough to get the thing under into the house.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Cool , a bidders contest. Kurt I believe you are close. $88,000,000 is more reasonable but the rich are not so much. I have seen the craziness of billionaires. Unreal. If two ego maniacs go at it , the price will be crazy. I just worked on a Ferrari splitter front lower bumper on a challenge 296 car yesterday. I told them it was just about impossible to repair. The price of a lower splitter is around $7500. If you can find one . And you cannot right now. So he said I do not care what it costs, can you have it done by Monday? So the bill is around $10,000 and he is glad to pay it. Insane? Probably but who says the billionaires are sane. So attach this mentality to bidding on a very rare and beautiful car. If egos go insane , who knows what it will bring. A billionaire told me at laguna that he will spend around $100,000 for three days of playing with race cars. Three days?……he told me his car prep, mechanics, catering people, shipping cars , renting laguna seca etc, etc around $100,000. To me it’s crazy , to him it was a great weekend.

I'm laughing because *I know right?*   Same with houses, places such as Jackson Hole WY is insane to exist in, can't imagine being a service worker.  Prescott is becoming such a haven, and don't get me going.  I enjoyed seeing your posts about your awful job /sarc off/ and hope you don't stroke out, sticking it out while you can.  I hated my career at the end.  Wasn't there a Steve McQueen car, the reserve was higher than everyone thought was insane and it didn't sell.  Don't tell anyone, but I know the owner of Ferrari #1, was shown at Palm Springs a couple decades ago, he has had insane offers but will die with it, there is a son. 😏  So I believe you 100%.

Well, I'm glad he's enjoying his money on something I approve of, and would do if I could.

I well remember that 2 days racing three old Abarths and a Spridget in SCCA at Sebring put a serious strain on the shop budget. We drove all night towing our own cars, one inside a Merita bread van converted to a mobile shop/sleeping quarters, another one behind it, another one behind an Olds Toronado, and I forget what the other tow car was. The shop owner stayed at Motel 6 for a better night's rest.

But I had the cutest little girlfriend on the planet at the time, she didn't mind camping in the van, and to me, it was a GREAT weekend, and I couldn't begin to imagine a better one no matter how much money I could burn.
