RM Sotheby’s is thrilled to announce the addition of a 2003
Ferrari Enzo to its early feature entries for its 22nd annual

Friday, 22 January. The auction will be a live event, with limited

of Ferrari’s next step in its hypercar evolution following the F50,
the Ferrari Enzo on offer, chassis no. 131919, was delivered
new to its original owner via Foreign Cars Italia in Greensboro,
North Carolina and was promptly featured as the cover car for
Car and Driver’s July 2003 issue, the willing subject of the first
official testing review available to the United States audience. |

Joining the Enzo in Arizona is another fantastic Ferrari, a genuinely rare, “low roof” 1956 Ferrari 250 GT
Alloy Coupe coachbuilt by Felice Mario Boano in 1957. One of just 14 alloy-bodied coupes produced by
Boano between 1956 and 1958, chassis no. 0613GT benefits from a rich and well-documented provenance,
including its factory build records, in-period race victories, and more recently, certification by Ferrari
Classiche. |
Originally owned by NART financier, George Arents, 0613GT was sold to noted privateer Bob Grossman,
who navigated the car in several races, including the Speed week’s famous ‘All-Ferrari’ race, where he
finished sixth overall. In 1960, 0613GT was exported to England and passed through the stables of several
English owners. |
