    From what I know:

    1. Black Ferrari California Spider (SWB??) IDK about S/N
    2. Black Ferrari 250 GT Lusso (SWB/LWB???)

    I don't know much about vintage Ferraris though ;)

    The ex-Coburn car was bought by DJ Chris Evans for $10.9M. His response after winning it was "I didn't expect it to go for that price, but I'm fine, absolutely calm. I've just had a Guinness."

    You have to love the "FAB 1" license plate on it.

    And who bought the McQueen Lusso for $2.3M in Aug 2007? (One rumor at the time was it might have been Eric Clapton, but I've never seen any more regarding that rumor. The buyer is referred to as "an anonymous car collector who placed a bid by phone").

    A couple of great cars that have both recently had a lot of time in the press. Nice that they parked them side-by-side at the event.
