1995 Ferrari F50

When new, the F50 was available for a bargain basement $475k, but only to approved Ferraristi, who had to go through a factory-leasing program. Rear mid-mounted heart is a 4.7-liter, 60-valve V-12 that makes 513 hp at 8,000 rpm and 347 ft lbs of torque at 6,500 rpm. That is delivered to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox.

The F50 has become an almost religious relic among the Ferrari faithful. This iconic status is based on the fact that it is the last 'analog' V-12-powered Ferrari supercar.
Just 349 production F50s were built. While every one is special, some are more special than others. Of the 349 F50s, only 55 were to US specification, and of those only two were finished in Giallo Modena, accented with Nero interior. This car was ordered by Ralph Lauren. Lauren retained the F50 until May of 2003, at which point it was made available for sale. In the winter of 2003 the car, with 3,400 miles, was acquired via Ferrari of Washington in Sterling, Virginia. The car is offered with fewer than 5,400 miles on the clock.
Service by Ferrari of Central Florida at the end of 2024 included replacement of the fuel bladder, tires, and brake components. This is documented in a file of invoices of large amounts. The F50 had its Ferrari Classiche Certification reviewed and renewed last year, with a new Red Book. Extremely well-loved, properly kept, and gently used, this example stands, in its 30th anniversary year, as one of the very best of its kind. Estimate is $6.5m to $7.5m Here.
