    My all time favorite. Would have to hit the lottery big time. My 3 Dino's would barely make a decent deposit.

    If I could have just one car, that would be it. I would have to have it tuned to road use ...

    It would be fabulous to wake up before dawn Sundays, put on string-back gloves, and take it out for a spin in the mountains. Sigh.

    forget the car what about the garage behind.

    So how much is something like this worth? Someone posted 3 Dino's wouldn't be a down payment. So is this mid 7 figures? Cool as it is I'd prefer a lot of others in the 2mil-5mil range. It sure is pretty though

    Yeah, We build our garages over here on stilts........the water table can be a bit high!
    Also we love narrow doors so that we can put our cars in on their side and thus fit more of them in our pokey wooden efforts.

    Do any of you guys across the pond know who rebuilt the car after it was "T-Boned" at the track a few years ago?

    This WAs a GREAT car-although it had, essentialy NO Continental/Factory racing history-as a CAR, it was never wrecked to any real degree as far as race cars go...it would've been a great modern vintage racer-yes, an oxymoron, but you all get the idea...
    That crash cost the value to take a hit in the million dollar area, minimally-IMHO...

    Competition DINOS are a finicky car money wise-VERY intersesting cars, extremly FAST-in capable hands-VERY expensive to take up and down repeatedly...
    BUT...they don't have 12 cylinders...and like it or not, THAT will always keep them way cheaper than like bodied 12 cylider brothers...
    They ARE NOT 2/3RDS OF A P/4, despite all of the opionions to the contrary from the peanut gallerey. Hell, I doubt that this car sells for 1/3 of ANY sort of a Prototype with 12 cyls("P"-Car)..IMHO
    The ONLY important opinions in this arena are those of the Buyer and the Seller...ultimeately.

    For example, this is a car some would offer as little as 2.0M to 2.5Million USD, for all reasons opined above.
    Others might go 3.0 to 4.0...Me-somewhere in the middle-FWIW...
    ...But I have a hard time seeing much beyond this amount, based on history-including recent HEAVY looking crash, despite rebuild-all viewed in the prism of todays world economy...
    It's just NOT a tier 1 sort of a car.
    ONLY top quality, tier 1 cars are going UP acutely in value today, accompanied with near instantaneous transactions.

    In my experience, as soon as a car becomes a little "dodgy" race history and "condition" wise, the perception of it being a tier 2, 3, or even 4 comes into play.

    Having the several million dollars/euros/PDS to spend is one thing-having it, and having the desire to spend it on a vintage, RACING(single useage vehicle) Ferrari, is an altogether different story.
