Look at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Beautiful, isn’t it? And it’s not just proof that the 488 Spider’s blue has been a thing for 70 years, it’s also a top-class racer. It’s now offered by !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , to the tune of...

£45,000,000

What you are looking at, essentially, is the world’s most expensive car to be sold.

True.

On the other hand... if I make a Singer-fied version of this (modern internals, carbon body), would it cost the same as the purchase price of the real thing?

At current exchange rate, that’s 56.57 million US dollars.

At a conservative 1% return, that’s $565,700 per year if invested.

Yeah, I’m gonna go with CP. I’d rather buy a new Aventador every year and still have six figures to live off of.

Is James Glickenhaus’s Ferrari P4/5 worth $40 million?

First you’ll need to buy a 250 GTO as a donor car so likely it would cost more.

I can’t believe I was right next to this car at the Simeone museum. It was actually not far from the Doug Skyline when I covered the Japanese car exhibit.
