Is the Ferrari 250 GTO About To Be Replicated?

The 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO has been described as a work of art, recently fetching a price of $US48 million in 2018 at a RM Sotherby’s auction held in Monterey, California. This makes the Ferrari 250 GTO one of those most expensive cars of all time. Back in its day though, you could have purchased one for around $18,000.

A total of only 36 Ferrari GTOs were only ever produced between 1962 and 1963, and three ‘Series II’ were built in 1964. This has brought the total of GTOs ever made to just a mere 39. With the 250 GTO, Ferrari dominated international GT racing, highlighted by winning the FIA World Manufacturers Championship from 1962 to 1964. This, combined with it rarity makes the GTO 250 one of the most sought after cars of all time.
