or so 2 of my friends just told me

 

especially if you imagine that the back is the front and the front is the back. the red looks like the rocket on the back of the batmobile.

 

If you can afford a 10 million dollar car, you can afford to repaint it in one of the other colors it raced in....

 

I wish we could wager on these potential auction prices! I'd put my money on this coming well under $10 mil. It's certainly a stunningly beautiful machine with the history and provenance to match. But something tells me that Cal Spyder at RM last year was a big outlier. A little "Fantasy Ferrari Auction" might be in order! ; )

 

Wow, it looks great in that color! Stunning car!!

 

i love it in that color and as far as im concerned it is the only livery this car should be in.

 

I agree. My comment was meant to be taken tongue-in-cheek. I do believe the car was red when first built, however. In spite of the economy, I actually think this car will reach 10 million US...

 

Definite 8-figure car.

 

I love it, however it would need to be repainted red.

 

Did you get lost on your way to facebook?

 

yes can you point me in the right direction? it was a joke

 

This car will NOT sell for less than $10MM. I would not be surprised if it brought closer to $12MM. It's not like you can buy one at any given time. A rare offering of a very special car. There are still a good amount of billionaires left out there who would not even work up a sweat and write a check on the spot for a car like this.

Gene.

 

Whatever it sells for, I sure hope the new owner will race it. It's gotta be the meanest looking TR I've ever seen.

 

any historic racing pics of the car ?

i found only one from Virginia 1959 and from Nassau 1961.

 

just beautiful and perfect in every way.. a true beauty and should be kept in this colour.. its what make Ferraris like these special.. period colours other than red do it justice..

 

Painted red? This is how Alan Connell raced it.

Is it how it was originally painted when sold to and raced by Drogo?

 

Jim, it was white at first. This is Drogo at Villa Real 1958 the car showing with number 12.
