I have an old Road & Track magazine from 1965. In the classified section in the back there were two 1964 GTOs and a 250LM for sale; all three cars had asking prices between $9,500 and $12,000!
Funny thing is they sound so much smoother after driving the cr@p out of it! It's like the cars are asking for it. Nice video and good sound quality! ^-^
Fun fact, according to Jeremy Clarkson, all these cars are hand built, therefore each car had a different engine displacement, and a different number of horsepower in each.
When I realized they were about to do a mass start with some of the rarest, most iconic, most expensive cars in existence, all I could do was watch with my jaw on the floor.
Money aside, this is beautiful!! Enzo built these cars to drive (race). I think the owners who showed up for this event really appreciate that. Enzo would be proud!! I suspect the other owners have them as investments.
True, 250 GTO is fucking beautiful!... But to me F40 is totally different animal and should be respected the same. But only time will tell. It was planned for only 300 but they end up at 1300 cars. 250 GTO's small number of population could also contribute to to its value.

You can sort of see which of the cars were raced regularly. At 6:39, you can hear that Nick Mason's GTO (#22) and Lord Bamford's car (the car right after #22) had a slightly different exhaust note, probably due to all the race tuning and the lack of silencers.
I always knew I had an eye for the "right' car(s). Too bad I was poverty stricken. ie 1964 Porsche 904 going for $10,500. An original Cobra Daytona Coupe asking price around $10-$12K and lastly a 1957 Maserati 450S roadster but with a Pontiac engine for only $5K. The original engine was in a boat in Conn. If I had the money I'd stilll have themn all. These were all in the seventies.
john goeb Does sound like kind of a bummer... I know how the prices evolved, quite bizarre to see how many money could have been made. But the large majority has been sold multiple times, kind of in line like 'I can't pass on the 200k offer' - 'sold my GTO for 1mln!' etcetera. But remember, some cars are the classics of the future!! ;)
Think what it costs to maintain and run one of these, or even just to get it to England because several of these are in the US. That's over 1/2 Billion dollars worth of automobiles on that starting line, and they're racing them. I love it!
The latest 250 GTO sold for 48 million dollars (publicly, not privately). x 15 that's almost 3/4 of a billion dollars worth of cars. Usually it takes a container ship to fit that amount of cars but here it is in a single line-up.
@@jacquesraymond6892 yes 70 million for the most profitable auction in the history. The median price is around 55 million dollars. You can't say all those cars will be sold at the maximum valuation
My dad and I took our Lamborghini Miura and Ferrari 250 GTO (the dark blue one in this video) out for a drive down highway 1 in California. About an hour in, we decided to stop and switch cars. Parked near an ocean overlook, an old motor home drove up and out stepped an old couple. They walked around our cars a few times without saying a word. The old man finally got back in the camper, but the old lady came up to me, while pointing at the GTO and said..."I like that one the best". She turned, got back in the camper and the old folks drove off. My favorite story out of many during our 25 years with the GTO.
The best GTO reminiscences are to be found in David Clark's 'Ferrari 250 GTO', a tiny little book published by Osprey many moons ago. The chapter 'One careful owner' is worth the value of the book in its own right. He owned Greypaul Engineering, who specialised in Ferrari 250 repairs and restorations, and really knew his stuff.
You know what’s interesting to think about? Back when the FIA toured Ferrari’s factory to make sure they built enough homologation cars to race most of these cars shown had parts from another one of these cars fit into them so that Ferrari only had to make 39 GTO’s

Incredible how every ferrari 250 gto ever made still exists!
I believe the original protype, #2053GT, was demolished and lost in a 1964 crash. In addition, several cars have been rebodied, some more than once.

The 250LM. Comment from a test years ago 'there are holes behind the pedals. You can see the road through them. That must be nice when it rains…'!
And several Lloyd’s of London insurance reps were like: oh no, no please slow down a bit, oooooh shit, not so close, damn I can’t watch....
Most likely insurance doesn't cover racing unless it is written into the policy and cost raised accordingly.
It's unlikely anyone would cover these cars for track use now. Probably only for injures and damage to barriers etc.
Funny thing is they sound so much smoother after driving the cr@p out of it! It's like the cars are asking for it.
Nice video and good sound quality! ^-^
