    Where is the Le Mans class winning chassis? If this is $3.8m, then the winning car must be what...$6m?

    barchetta.cc is incorrect on the number of built cars by Prodrive.
    They built 12 cars, 2 of which never seen the championships in the world.

    So what happened to the other two chassis? Were they ever tracked (not raced)?

    I've consulted this article by dailysportscar who had input from ex Care Racing staff so should be on the money

    http://www.dailysportscar.com/2015/04/23/care-racing-ferrari-550-by-the-numbers.html

    These cars still hold a pretty special place in my heart- the only car that would come even close would be the McLaren F1 GTR, another wailing V12 machine.
