Preview (beginning of the article)

On August 24 and 25, 2018, RM/Sotheby's auctioned 150 automobiles worth almost USD 213 million in Monterey. A superlative auction was expected, and several such auctions were held. With more than 20 cars sold for over a million USD, the high price level was evident. A total of almost USD 180 million was bid over the two evenings. 80 percent of the vehicles were knocked down, resulting in sales proceeds of USD 157.9 million, an average of USD 1.263 million per lot. The Ferrari 250 GTO from 1962 played a key role in the top result. The 36 Ferrari 250 GTOs built are not exactly frequent guests at auctions. They are usually sold privately, with only a few examples ever seeing the hammer. The 1962 GTO offered by RM with chassis number 3413, which was improved in 1964 with the later GTO/64 bodywork and won twice in class at the Targa Florio (1963 and 1964), was estimated at USD 45 to 60 million.
