Condition
6 Webers, Tipo 213 275LM engine, foil-thin bodywork. One of four similar cars that take the 275 GTB/C theme to a higher order. Good race car repaint with some chips and blisters in creases. Clean underhood, good interior. A serious Ferrari that''ll embarrass GTOs.
Market commentary
Offered for private treaty sale on behalf of John McCaw. Ex-Brandon Wang. Think $2 Million. A lotta money, but a whole lotta Ferrari. The 275 GTB speciales have attracted much interest in the past two or three years. They''re faster than a GTO and way, way less money -- although the gap has been closing rapidly. No one in his right mind, not even a cell phone gazillionaire, will drive a GTO with verve. They''re icons; sacred relics (?). These 275 comp cars are the alternative and they''ve been drawing the money and interest while GTOs'' values have stalled.
