August has arrived and in our world that means only one thing: the Monterey car week is about to take off. More than ever before, the eyes will be on the auctioneers, which are bound to make headlines with spectacular sales. None more so than Bonhams, who will offer ten Ferraris from the Maranello Rosso Collection in the company's Quail Lodge Sale. This is headlined by the 250 GTO, which had been owned by the late Fabrizio Violati since 1965. With recent prices of privately sold examples have reportedly reached the $50 million mark, a new world record will surely be set with the sale. Particularly because all ten Ferraris, including the GTO, will be offered at no reserve!
The pending sale of chassis 3851GT has prompted us to dive into our archives to further complete our 250 GTO article. In addition to the chassis details of all 28 examples still fitted with the 1962/63 body styles, we have also expanded our gallery to include the 22 cars we have seen over the years. This has resulted in our largest ever single-car gallery at a whopping 462 shots of the cars at events all around the world, which should ensure several hours of viewing pleasure!
Keep an eye on this page as many more previews and reports on the Monterey events will follow.
