    Saw an online story tonite about a 62 250 that is being sold for $63Mil on our ebay equivalent in Germany called mobile.de. Supposedly there were only 39 built and an expert says he has documentation on each of the 39 and knows where each car is; also and I would agree that anyone listing or buying such a rare car would not put it on such a site. I could not get the story to link, sorry. dogdoc

    Hey, Max! How's it going? I hope all is well. The article isn't wrong - just a tad misleading. Only 36 250 GTOs were built, plus an additional three 330 LMBs (also referred to as 330 GTOs), for a total of 39. The expert in question is Marcel Massini - and he is an expert, and he does have documentation on all 39 cars, and he does know the current location of each one - he probably has more information on them than the factory.

    I'm still awaiting the serial number of the replica in question; while it's a replica, I imagine it's still based on another Ferrari (perhaps a 250 GTE 2+2). Stay tuned...

    Funny that they still didn't get the production number right.
