How did the big auction go??????????????????
My Friends are at the auction I was going there as well but forgot my pasport this morning so I couldn''t get on the plane. So I had the day off. TOTO70-0
I know, when I first genuinely wanted a GTB/4 (do you remember our talking about it a year or two ago at WWOC?) they were 400K. They are now coming on the market at 700 or more. Same increase Re: Lussos. the big question is whether Daytonas will follow suit. Certainly, there are more of them, but I think if I owned a Daytona right now, I wouldn't be too displeased with the way things are going. As for my 275 dream... I pout daily.
so... is the market growing too fast? are we witnessing another ferrari hype? are we back in the 80's, or would this be a more permanent evolution?
Our Maserati 4CL-1500 GP sold for 370K Euros. The 625LM, 121LM, 330 TRi LM, 412, 196SP did not sell. Memorabilia sale was a smash, the Car side not so good. Regards, Bill Noon
Here are the numbers one of my clients gave me including what we got for our Maserati but I do not now if these means they sold at these numbers as the situation appeared vauge to him and some others who were there. There is a lot of confussion at the moment. (Not a good sign.)

118 used to belong to one of my best friends. I'll give him a call and let him know. Overall, I would say that this is a very disappointing result. Sotheby's seems to have stubbed its toe. edit....."Upon further review" I guess I'd have to say that there was plenty of money willing to be spent, but not quite enough, apparently.
