Market commentary

TR stands for Testa Rossa, the first Ferrari redhead and it is from this that the whole Testa Rossa legend descends. The prices of the original four cylinder TRs have described an almost impossible arc in recent years, scoring upwards from chump change sic ten years ago to this blistering price which is 72% more than 0620MDTR realized two years ago at Christies first Monterey Jet Center auction. Even at this lofty valuation it is barely a quarter of a pontoon fender 250TR and money well spent.
