I've seen the car, not the autograph- have tons of pictures of it if he could specify where it was signed so I can zoom in and post them..
Benny never owned an F1. We talked about it at Moroso last February and he said he didnt like it. He regretted though not buying a 2nd 333 SP Great guy indeed.
Latest price range I've heard is $1.3-1.4 million. High end of the scale for a EPA/DOT car, lower end for "show and display".
It is signed on the inside of the driver's side door jamb (or sill, whichever). here is a shot of it with some of its buddies. http://www.findlay.com/jpf/ferrari/gs01a.jpg
Just looked through my pictures- can't find it in any of them (only 3 of the interior, all bad quality w/ bad lighting)... Will try to take pictures of it before I go back to school... Sorry!
you are correct about herb. he lives in ct in old lyme specifically. he has several of his cars at his home as well as his yacht ...excellence 111. a spectacular 187' lursen yacht!! a bit nice. pcb

for 1.3 million, i would buy an f50 for 600k a used o3 murci for 230k, a 360spider for 180k, an m3 for 50k,a diablo roadster for 170k,and a used 996tt for 80k......i would get far greater enjoyment with these 6 cars than one mclarin.... but i know , no one asked, so i will shut up!!!!
buy an f40, put huge blowers and intercoolers on it and still have some cash left over for tires and race fuel!! i think you are on the right track though!!
Chances are that if they can afford a McLaren, they either own or have owned all of the cars mentioned...
Are you talking about the Algar car? It was stolen? If not, i'd be interested as to where it was before being sold. Cheers
Our own member (Armen), name here is ag5512 or something like that, owned one, and sold it. He would probably be the best to judge the current market price.
there is an article in the current issue of the sports car marketplace wheremike sheean states the fi price range to be between 1.2-1.3mm dollars and rising! ryan ...hows the 996? pcb
998 S Came in Sat. I am out of town, will get in town tomorrow, and tell you all about it! Hope all is well in your world, Peter
