The very first time that all three cars to earn the GTO badge in Ferrari’s illustrious history will be offered for |
public sale, an opportunity unlikely to repeat itself. In addition to the 250 GTO (chassis no. 3413), RM
Sotheby’s will present a 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO showing less than 13,200 actual kilometers (Est.
$2,750,000 - $3,250,000), and a well-equipped 2011 Ferrari 599 GTO in striking Nero Daytona with Grigio
Silverstone stripe (Est. $575,000 - $650,000); |

A 1954 Ferrari 375 America Coupe, chassis no. 0327AL, a unique creation by coachbuilder Vignale and |
the 1954 Geneva Motor Show car. Sold new to legendary racing sponsor Robert Wilke of Leader Card fame,
the 375 America has enjoyed long ownership history with noted enthusiasts. Finished in its original color
scheme and equipped with its original engine, the 375 is one of just 12 ever built and the first example
available publicly in seven years (Est. $3,500,000 - $5,000,000); |

A 1966 Ferrari 500 Superfast Series II, chassis no. 8459SF, one of just 12 series II examples built and |
just eight equipped with right-hand drive. Originally delivered to British sportsman Jack Durlacher in the
most desirable configuration with a five-speed transmission and front fender vents, the 500 Superfast is
offered in Monterey with its original engine and finished in its original color scheme of Blu Chiaro over
Naturale leather (Est. $1,750,000 – $2,000,000); and, |

A 1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Spider Competizione, chassis no. 15965, the only Competizione-specification |
365 GTB/4 built as a spider and showcased by designer Michelotti at the 1975 Geneva Motor Show.
Entered in the 1975 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 1978 24 Hours of Daytona, the recognizable Spider has
since competed multiple times at both the Tour Auto and Le Mans Classic and remains hugely eligible
worldwide for both concours and historic racing events (Est. $2,300,000 - $3,500,000). |
