1935 Alfa Romeo 8C-35 – $9,425,000
Sold in August 2013 at a Goodwood auction in Britain, the actual sale of this Alda Romeo was in British pounds. This chassis, no. 50013, experts believe is the one driven to a victory by Nuvolari at the August 1936 running of the Coppa Ciano race at Livorno, Italy. At this point, we believe this is the best living Alfa Romeo 8C-35 from the mid-30s.
1957 Ferrari 250 GT 14-Louvre Berlinetta – $9,460,000
There were only nine of these ever built, of which eight remain. It sold in 2013 for a record-breaking $9.4 million. This chassis, 0703 GT, has been fully restored to meticulous standards. The 14-Louvre Berlinetta houses a SOHC V12, with three Weber carbs, and a four-speed manual transmission. As with collectible Ferrari’s of this era, the coachwork is by Scaglietti. This one raced in Tour de France, and, amongst many other awards, won the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance Award.
