Estimate has now been posted on the website 1995 Ferrari F50 | Monterey 2013 | RM AUCTIONS Those numbers sound reasonable considering what Penske's F50 brought in January.
It would appear - although I'm sure to be corrected - that F50-99999 (the one and fully-documented only 99999) set a new auction record for F50s. All things considered, did it also set the high mark for all 'supercars'? 288GTO, F40, F50, Enzo?? jocko
Wasn't there a 288 GTO for sale at 1.9mil in Dubai? It had 600 miles of use and was described as 'USA' spec. CH
So, it would appear from Mr Sackey's reply: one 'maybe not' and one 'maybe', but with no numbers. Speaking of numbers, this thread contains a number of blurbers firmly convinced that there are more 99999s out there. For those who believe such a thing - and adamantly stated same - How much will one of the 'ghost' 99999 cars sell for?? 8-> TIA jocko
Excellent answer! "Priceless" would be inversely proportional to the value of the opinions published by the adamant believers in the "...many 99999s" story made up by a used car salesman. Still, given the F50 auction record that 99999 set, it would seem to be the Champ. It is, indeed, a fantastic car. Easy to drive. No electronic bells/whistles. Visceral, tactile, and a joy to operate. The end of the line stretching back to the first Supercar - the 250LM. jocko
If one considers the historic Enzo era F-cars they never really worried too much about accurate numbering, perhaps they havent been too worried until very very recently. This makes very interesting reading - hope it isnt a repost Ferraris by the Numbers The factory would be quite happy to sell you the LaFerrari #1 if you are important enough and potentially if there is enough money they could sell a couple of them with #1 on them ??????
Mr former VP Cheney Dear Dick: it is your right to cling to your Goebbelian belief system; however, repeating a lie does not make it true. Sincerely, jocko
Note that a rising tide raises all ships and in fact a "standard" USA F50 has sold for in excess of that sum recently.
My goal is not to reopen the debate but while reading an old issue of Prancing Horse I saw this interesting table from 1995 compiled by our well-known Marcel Massini (see note (8)). I said to myself that it was mandatory to put the information here in order to show a new evidence of our assumption that there are (or were) several F50 numbered 99999.
