The legendary vehicles in the history of motoring are the ones that are the target of collectors so that their acquisition prices are a record.

The 2010 a ’36 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic cost somewhere in between 30 and 34 million. dollars to its buyer, while last February a Ferrari 250 Its GTO 1964 it cost 31 million. dollars to its owner.

But this record was recently broken by Ferrari 250 GTO of ’62 which was sold for neither more nor less 35 million. dollars, that is, approximately 28.183.000 euro!

Of course, this is not just any vehicle, as it was specially built for legendary racing driver Stirling Moss. Although he never actually drove it himself as the accident he had in April ’62 prevented him from getting behind the wheel again, the car took part in races taking many victories.

Element that differentiates this particular model from others 250 GTO is its unique greenish shade.

The 1996 bought for 3,5 million. dollars and since then it has changed hands several times. The latest owner to pay the record amount is collector Craig McCaw, who became a multi-millionaire when he sold the telecommunications company AT&T it 1993 for 11,5 million. dollars!

The last time the historic vehicle was presented to the public, it was the 2011 when it made its appearance at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
