Condition

Designed by Giovanni Savonuzzi for Ghia, built on Fiat's delectable 8V chassis. The first of its series, bought by Paul Farago based on Luigi Segre's presentation of the design drawings to Virgil Exner at Chrysler and bought by Paul Lazaros from Farago.

Market commentary

Sold at Gooding's Scottsdale auction in 2011 for $1,705,000, close enough to today's price that it establishes the bar for the fifteen 8V Supersonics built.
