1962 Ferrari 250GTE Police Car

With a glamorous past chasing Italian gangsters and its lights and siren still in working condition, who WOULDN'T want this 1962 Ferrari 250GTE? Chassis number 3999 was delivered to Rome’s Squadra Mobile in 1963. The highway police sold their original interceptor in 1972 via a public auction of army surplus. The Italian buyer, Alberto Cappelli, knew what he had and spent the next 40 years preserving its incredible originality. A 2+2 GTE isn't exactly a 250 GTO but this is the only private car still allowed to wear blue lights and siren in Italy.

A low-budget action movie called Poliziotto Sprint followed, which included a sequence with a 250GTE driving down the steps. Now the real star is for sale, offered by Girardo & Co in Milan. No word on price.

Celebrity status was acquired after a series of spectacular high-speed chases, including one that involved chasing a Citroën down the Spanish Steps next to the Trinità dei Monti church in Rome.
