1962 Ferrari 250 California Spyder by Scaglietti

Behold an icon. 280 bhp, 2,953 cc single overhead camshaft V-12 engine, three Weber carburetors, four-speed gearbox, independent front suspension via A-arms, coil springs, and telescopic shock absorbers, live rear axle with semi-elliptical springs and telescopic shock absorbers, and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes.
An incredibly rare car, the 1962 Ferrari 250 California Spyder is one of the prettiest and most desirable open-topped Ferraris ever made. Ferrari produced a total of just 106 California Spyders, 56 of them on the short wheelbase chassis. Of those 56, 37 were delivered with the covered-headlamp variant.
The California Spyder was based upon the 250 GT Tour de France, Ferrari’s dual-purpose berlinetta.
This example crossed the block at Monterey in 1999 It failed to change hands on a $10,500,000 - $13,000,000 estimate.
