- 1974-ferrari-dino-246-gts-by-scaglietti-02
Among the most admired sports cars of its time, Ferrari’s Dino marked a defining moment in the company’s evolution, combining exquisite styling with the balance of a lightweight, mid-engined design. Penned by Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti, its graceful lines cloaked a competition-bred chassis and spirited V-6 engine, establishing the formula for Ferrari’s future mid-engine road cars and gaining further appeal in targa-roofed Gran Turismo Spider form, which allowed its charismatic soundtrack to be enjoyed in the open air. According to an accompanying report by Marcel Massini, chassis number 08056 was completed on 4 April 1974, finished in the striking combination of Rosso Dino (20-R-350) over Beige Connolly leather (VM 3234). A desirable late-production E-Series example, it benefits from the model’s final and most developed specification, including an improved gearbox and upgraded Weber carburetors. Well-equipped from new, it was also optioned with factory air conditioning, power windows, and Daytona-style seats. Delivered to the United States via Chinetti-Garthwaite Imports of Paoli, Pennsylvania, it was acquired in 1976 by respected racing driver Joe Buzzetta, who retained ownership through 1984. In 2014, the car was reportedly entrusted to Farland Classic Restoration of Englewood, Colorado, for an extensive restoration that saw it refinished in the crisp and elegant shade of Bianco Polo over an interior retrimmed in tan leather. The car has benefited from well-documented care during the consignor’s ownership, most recently receiving a thorough inspection and service in June 2026 by Motion Products, Inc. of Wisconsin. Documentation shows the work included a brake fluid flush, replacement of the engine oil, coolant, and transaxle gear oil, new spark plugs, and selective refreshing of the interior and trim as needed. A highly desirable late-production example, this Dino 246 GTS represents the model at its most refined, combining celebrated design with one of Ferrari’s most emotionally resonant driving experiences. 1974 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

When the Bugatti EB110 burst onto the stage at Versailles, Paris, a city long accustomed to spectacle, found itself momentarily eclipsed by a machine that seemed to belong more to tomorrow than to the close of the 20th century. Its glass-covered headlamps, impossibly low stance, and signature scissor doors projected an other-worldly aura for the reinvented Bugatti brand. The marque’s return to production was itself a remarkable event. Dormant since 1952, the marque had eluded several revival attempts before Italian entrepreneur and Ferrari distributor Romano Artioli secured the rights in 1987. Determined to restore Bugatti to prominence, Artioli established a cutting-edge manufacturing facility in Campogalliano, placing the company in close proximity to Italy’s supercar elite. Development of the EB110 began immediately, though not without complexity. Four years of intensive engineering culminated in a car that blended visionary design with formidable performance. Penned initially by Marcello Gandini—celebrated for the Miura, Countach, and Diablo—the design was later refined by architect Giampaolo Benedini. The result was a sharply angular, muscular evolution of the wedge-shaped supercar aesthetic. Following Gandini’s departure during the project’s early stages, Technical Director Nicola Materazzi assumed leadership, overseeing the transition to an advanced carbon fiber chassis and addressing critical durability concerns identified during testing. The EB110 was finally unveiled on 15 September 1991, commemorating what would have been the 110th birthday of company founder, Ettore Bugatti. The final road-ready production car was named for the anniversary, officially termed the EB110 GT. The earliest cars were powered by a 3.5-liter, quad-turbocharged V-12 engine rated at 553 horsepower, working alongside a six-speed manual transmission. Official performance figures for the EB110 GT quoted a 0–60 mph time of just 3.4 seconds, with a top speed of a colossal 212.5 mph—one of few production cars of its era that could comfortably break the 200 mph barrier. Despite early momentum and high-profile ownership—including Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher—the company soon faced financial strain. Artioli’s ambitious acquisition of Lotus, combined with a challenging global economic climate, contributed to Bugatti Automobili SpA ceasing operations in September 1995. In total, it is thought that just 139 EB110s were produced, including approximately 84 GT variants. The example offered here was originally specified for delivery to Saudi Arabia, finished in Blu Bugatti over a Grigio Chiaro leather interior, as confirmed by a factory order summary dated 21 April 1993 and retained within the history file. Although destined for the Middle East, the car is understood to have remained in storage in the United Kingdom with some early mechanical issues subsequently addressed by Bugatti, supported by accompanying service documentation. The EB110 was then exported to the United States before later returning to the United Kingdom, where it was registered with the DVLA in October 2004 as part of a prominent private collection. Offered at auction the following year, it was acquired by a Swiss collector who retained the car until 2012, after which it entered another significant collection. During this period of custodianship, the car was maintained by renowned specialists Joe Macari and H.R. Owen before joining its current prominent South Florida collection in 2022. Since then, it has continued to receive meticulous care and at the time of cataloguing, the odometer displayed just 11,505 kilometers (~7,149 miles). At once a technological tour de force and a symbol of one of the most ambitious revivals in automotive history, the EB110 GT occupies a significant position within the modern supercar canon. This well-preserved and carefully documented example offers both formidable performance and a direct link to the re-emergence of the revered Bugatti marque. 1993 Bugatti EB110 GT RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1991-alpina-b12-02
Some cars demand attention. An Alpina doesn’t have to. Those who know what they are looking at need only one glance at the subtle pinstriping, the distinctive wheels, and the Alpina emblem. Everyone else will probably understand what just passed them only after you have long disappeared from view. The foundation was the BMW 850i, although Alpina was never interested in creating something that was merely about visual drama. The 5.0-litre M70 V12 was thoroughly reworked with, among other things, revised camshafts, a modified crankshaft, improved intake and exhaust systems, and the legendary Alpina tuning philosophy. The result? 350 hp and, more importantly, a way of delivering power that only a naturally aspirated V12 can provide: effortless, silky smooth, and increasingly addictive as the rev counter climbs. The ZF automatic transmission does exactly what it should: it works seamlessly in the background. A true Grand Tourer, built for covering vast distances rather than chasing traffic lights. Inside, it is exactly as an Alpina should be. A light leather interior, beautifully finished and crafted to a quality level that remains impressive more than thirty years later. The distinctive Alpina details, classic dashboard, and exceptionally comfortable seats immediately reveal what this car was built for: effortless, long-distance driving. This particular example was delivered new on September 20, 1991, by Garage Max Heidegger AG in Switzerland and is one of only 97 Alpina B12s ever produced. “Rare” is a word that is used too easily these days, but here it is absolutely justified. Furthermore, this B12 has always been maintained with great care. You can feel it in every detail. The mechanics feel strong, the V12 runs with exceptional smoothness, and the car does exactly what an Alpina is meant to do. You don’t buy an Alpina B12 because it is the fastest. You buy it because it is different. More exclusive. And because only 97 people worldwide ever had the privilege of taking delivery of one brand new. Now it is time for the next enthusiast to enjoy it.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Some cars demand attention. An Alpina doesn’t have to. Those who know what they are looking at need only one glance at the subtle pinstriping, the distinctive wheels, and the Alpina emblem. Everyone else will probably understand what just passed them only after you have long disappeared from view. The foundation was the BMW 850i, although Alpina was never interested in creating something that was merely about visual drama. The 5.0-litre M70 V12 was thoroughly reworked with, among other things, revised camshafts, a modified crankshaft, improved intake and exhaust systems, and the legendary Alpina tuning philosophy. The result? 350 hp and, more importantly, a way of delivering power that only a naturally aspirated V12 can provide: effortless, silky smooth, and increasingly addictive as the rev counter climbs. The ZF automatic transmission does exactly what it should: it works seamlessly in the background. A true Grand Tourer, built for covering vast distances rather than chasing traffic lights. Inside, it is exactly as an Alpina should be. A light leather interior, beautifully finished and crafted to a quality level that remains impressive more than thirty years later. The distinctive Alpina details, classic dashboard, and exceptionally comfortable seats immediately reveal what this car was built for: effortless, long-distance driving. This particular example was delivered new on September 20, 1991, by Garage Max Heidegger AG in Switzerland and is one of only 97 Alpina B12s ever produced. “Rare” is a word that is used too easily these days, but here it is absolutely justified. Furthermore, this B12 has always been maintained with great care. You can feel it in every detail. The mechanics feel strong, the V12 runs with exceptional smoothness, and the car does exactly what an Alpina is meant to do. You don’t buy an Alpina B12 because it is the fastest. You buy it because it is different. More exclusive. And because only 97 people worldwide ever had the privilege of taking delivery of one brand new. Now it is time for the next enthusiast to enjoy it. We would be delighted to tell you more.

- 1953-fiat-8v-coupe-by-vignale
After decades of mass-producing economical cars, Fiat shocked the world in 1952 with the introduction of a limited-production, premium sport coupe powered by the Italian automaker’s first and only V-8 engine. Built on a Siata-fabricated tubular steel chassis with fully independent suspension, it was lightweight, agile, and potent. The advanced 2.0-liter overhead-valve V-8 would prove more than a match for Ferrari’s V-12 and Maserati’s inline-six in competition. Of the 114 produced through 1954, more than half featured curvaceous bodywork devised in-house under the direction of Fabio Luigi Rapi, head of Fiat’s specialized coachwork department. The remaining chassis would receive bodies from Italy’s most revered coachbuilders, including Ghia, Vignale, and Zagato. Privateers campaigned the Otto Vu—as it was known in Italian—all over the world to great success. It finished fifth in class at the 1952 Mille Miglia, third in class at the Giro della Toscana, and, most impressively, it won the 2.0-liter class in the Italian Sports Car Championship six years in a row, from 1954 to 1959—long after 8V production ceased due to management focusing efforts elsewhere. Most of the competition 8Vs featured lightweight Zagato bodywork. Two other noted coachbuilders produced double-digit batches of bodies, with chassis numbers ranging from 000035 to 000056. Ghia built 15 and Vignale at least 10, with some sources citing 13 total from the latter design house. Vignale’s 8V Coupe is attributed to renowned automotive designer Giovanni Michelotti and bears his characteristically aggressive lines within a refined silhouette encompassing a gently sloping roofline. Each example varied in detail such that no two were alike. Chassis 000046, offered here, features a striking chrome grille-surround beautifully integrated into the front bumper. Toward the top of each door, chrome accent spears deftly incorporate the door handles and complement the bold front-end treatment. The rear features beehive-style taillights inset within chromed recesses below vestigial tailfins more modest than those seen on other Vignale 8V examples. Affirming its resounding appeal, the Vignale body design of 000046 would later grace an extremely limited run of MG TDs and would be reinterpreted for a one-off Cadillac Coupe commissioned by noted American tuner Bill Frick. Chassis 000046 completed production on 16 June 1953 equipped from the factory with engine number 69, according to build data provided by Fiat Centro Storico. Tony Adriaensens’ Otto Vu lists the coupe’s first owner as Pietro Melchiorini of Alessandra in Northern Italy. The book mentions that the bodywork was likely finished in two shades of burgundy and the interior in tan leather with red-faced gauges. Period photos in the book show the car equipped with auxiliary driving lights and a single rearview mirror mounted far forward on the driver-side fender. Engine number 69 was reportedly damaged during local Italian racing early in the car’s life and a replacement block, numbered 149, was sourced and remains in the car today. Prominent Milanese car dealer and enthusiast Michele Vernola had, according to Adriaensens’ research, offered the car for sale at one point, seeking an American buyer without success. Storicar of Brescia, Italy, fully restored chassis 000046 from 1997 to 2000 in its present color combination of silver with a red roof and red leather interior. A binder accompanying the car includes photos documenting the restoration and period photos showing it being enjoyed throughout the decades. In current ownership, it has benefited from servicing at Italian classic specialist Fast Cars Ltd. of Redondo Beach, California, which rebuilt the engine, transmission, carburetors, gauges, and distributor, along with cleaning and rodding out the radiator. Still finished in its attractive two-tone silver and red color scheme over lovely red leather, it is now offered with photo binders, restoration invoices, and correspondence documenting its long Italian history as well as time in the United States. 1953 Fiat 8V Coupe by Vignale RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1990-lamborghini-countach-25th-anniversary-edition-by-bertone-02
To coincide with the silver jubilee of Automobili Lamborghini in 1988, in-house designer Horacio Pagani was tasked with restyling the Countach to create the 25th Anniversary Edition. A raised nose and new front bumper incorporated in vogue strakes to direct cool air to the front brakes. The rear end was updated, too, while the radiator air intakes gained prominent, body-colored vertical slats. The makeover was much more than skin deep: 1977 World Rally champion Sandro Munari extensively developed the chassis to improve handling. Also sporting a refreshed interior—which notably gained electric windows, enhanced sound deadening, and more comfortable seats with power-reclining backs—this celebratory special was launched at the 1988 Monaco Grand Prix, fittingly where the Countach had previously served as the Formula 1 safety car. Only in production for 20 months, just 657 examples rolled out of the factory gates in Sant'Agata Bolognese. However, given the refinements that run throughout, the 25th Anniversary Edition is widely regarded as the best-mannered of all Countach variants from the model’s enduring 17-year lifespan. One element that remained largely untouched, though, was the 60-degree V-12. The 5.2-liter engine was lifted from the LP5000 Quattrovalvole, meaning it delivered circa 420 horsepower via a five-speed, gated manual transmission. All told, it propelled the show-stopping wedge design to a top speed approaching 300 km/h. This final model-year 1990 Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary is likely one of the lowest-mileage examples available. Completed at the Sant’Agata Bolognese plant in May 1989, and subsequently delivered new to the United States in the classic color combination of Rosso Siviglia (PPG 215157) over Champagne leather with red piping, this special “time capsule” Countach indicates 1,532 kilometers (~ 952 miles) from new at the time of cataloguing. Sold new to Wallace J. Sulentic, it is believed that the car was specially ordered without the optional rear wing, a fact bolstered by a piece of correspondence on file in which Sulentic states, “I want a car without a rear wing… I want a car exactly as it came from the factory.” The Lamborghini remained on its Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin (MSO) and unregistered until 1996, when it was sold to a physician in California. Kept within the doctor’s collection for nearly 20 years, the vehicle was sparingly used during this time. In 2014, it was sold again and entered a private collection in Ohio. The current owner acquired the car in 2023. An invoice on file dated June 2025 confirms the Lamborghini received new fluids and filters along with a show-quality detail. The Lamborghini is additionally accompanied by a range of documentation including owner’s manuals, a brochure, and invoices, as well as a tool kit. With so few kilometers on the odometer, it is hard to imagine a more appealing example than this 25th Anniversary Edition time capsule. 1990 Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary Edition by Bertone RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1999-vector-srv8
Vector Aeromotive, founded in California in 1971 by Gerald “Jerry” Wiegert, promised a revolutionary product: A futuristic American-made machine that would incorporate advanced, aerospace-derived materials and manufacturing methods and offer all-conquering performance. Vector’s first concept, the W2, debuted to great acclaim in 1978, but it would take over a decade for limited production to begin. Critically short on funds by the early 1990s, Vector accepted investment from MegaTech, an Indonesian firm that would later purchase Lamborghini. This backfired on Wiegert when MegaTech—having acquired a controlling stake in Vector—ousted him from his own company, then moved the operation to Florida. This iteration of Vector developed a new model, the M12, which was closely related to the Lamborghini Diablo and used a V-12 from the Italian automaker. Seventeen were built before MegaTech sold Lamborghini to Audi, cutting off Vector’s engine supply. This might have been the end of the road for Vector if not for entrepreneur Randy Welty, as well as former Lotus board member Tim Enright, who purchased Vector from MegaTech in the mid-1990s. This led to the development of what would be the last functional Vector: the SRV8 prototype. THE LAST VECTOR Developed under the stewardship of Welty and Enright, the SRV8 was an ambitious attempt at charting a new course for the faltering automaker. Built on a repurposed preproduction M12 chassis, its engine was all-American—a 5.7-liter Chevrolet LS1 V-8—though this was mated to a Porsche five-speed manual gearbox. The SRV8 retained the marque’s signature wedge shape, but in keeping with late-1990s trends, its edges were softened, and static headlamps took the place of earlier pop-up units. The prototype even wore patriotic new red, white, and blue badging featuring the Statue of Liberty on the nose and wheel center caps. Ultimately, the SRV8 could not save Vector, and the company ceased operations not long after the prototype’s debut in 1999. Though Jerry Wiegert attempted to restart Vector production until his death in 2021, he reportedly never produced a functional vehicle; thus, the SRV8 prototype remains the last completed Vector automobile. Retained by the Welty family after the company’s closure along with a selection of other Vector vehicles, the sole SRV8 was eventually given to Randy’s son, Jake, as a 16th birthday present. The younger Welty would keep the car until 2025, when it joined the collection of the consignor. It remains in essentially as-built condition, displaying only 864 miles at time of cataloguing. Vector remains one of the great might-have-beens of the supercar world, with the SRV8 prototype representing the end of a saga that captivated enthusiasts for decades. This is an unrepeatable attempt to acquire a unique and fascinating all-American exotic, the sole example of its kind ever produced. 1999 Vector SRV8 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1953-ferrari-212-inter-coupe-by-vignale
As one of Ferrari’s earliest road car designations, the Inter name was first applied to the 166 model in honor of the Gruppo Inter racing team, which campaigned some of the earliest 166 Sports to great success. Specified with a larger 2.5-liter engine, the succeeding 212 Inter was made in a modest quantity of 78 cars, of which 37 examples were bodied by the coachbuilder Vignale. The featured car, chassis number 0289 EU, was the last of 26 such chassis completed as coupes. According to a history report by marque expert Marcel Massini, this Ferrari is the last of six similar cars bodied by Vignale to a design sometimes referred to as the Geneva Coupe. The styling closely echoes the Vignale-bodied 340 Mexico berlinettas that ran the Carrera Panamericana in late 1952, exhibiting similar jutting front fenders with inset headlamps and an eggcrate grille, as well as delicate tailfins. But while the 340 Mexicos had a sloping fastback, these six Vignale-bodied 212 Inters have notchback rear ends that further accentuate the tailfins. Equipped with triple Weber 36 DCZ/3 carburetors in the style of the racing Export variant, 0289 EU completed factory assembly in January 1953, finished in Camoscio (literally translating to chamois, but a gold metallic shade) paint by Lechleroid over an interior trimmed in Arbo Tan Verde leather. The 212 was delivered new to the Momo Corporation in New York City. Alfredo Momo was a well-known mechanic and importer of European sports cars who achieved greater renown as the chief mechanic for Briggs Cunningham’s racing teams. He soon sold the 212 to its first private owner, local New Yorker James Floria. Mr. Floria kept the Ferrari for eight years before offering it for sale, at which point it was acquired by Ferrari Club of America co-founder Richard Merritt, of Bethesda, Maryland. The 212 passed through three more owners in short order before being sold in 1973 to Jackson Brooks of Fort Collins, Colorado, and he conducted a full restoration during which the chrome side trim and bumpers were removed. Mr. Brooks later described the car in detail in his 2007 book Cars I Could’ve, Should’ve, Kept: Memoir of a Life Restoring Classic Sports Cars. In 1976 Brooks sold the Ferrari to Fred Jaeger of Racine, Wisconsin, and from him the car passed through a short chain of four more owners over the next ten years, including respected Illinois-based collector William Jacobs. In 1986 the Inter was sold to Steve Barney, the esteemed proprietor of Foreign Cars Italia of Greensboro, North Carolina. Barney was then joined by Ferrari Market Letter founder Gerald Roush for a run at the 1986 Mille Miglia Storica, an entertaining account of which Mr. Roush published in the next Ferrari Market Letter issue. This was the first of many appearances that 0289 EU made at the reborn Mille. By the end of the year the Ferrari was acquired by esteemed collector John Zambetti of Malibu, California, and he presented the car at the 1986 Palm Springs Concours d’Elegance, taking a class win. After briefly passing through the purview of Jim Hayes of Lakewood, California, the 212 was sold in 1988 to Gordon Wheeler of Deer Park, California. Mr. Wheeler campaigned the Inter at the Monterey Historic races five times over the following 12 years, in a testament to the car’s enjoyability in vintage events. During this time 0289 EU was exhibited at the 1991 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, and it also participated in the 1995 Wine Country Classic at Sears Point, and the 1998 Colorado Grand. In early 2002 the Ferrari was sold to Japanese collector Hirohisa Kojima, and he returned the car to the Mille Miglia Storica for three consecutive years starting in 2004. During this time Mr. Kojima performed some restoration work that included the addition of grille-mounted driving lamps, and the fender portholes for which Vignale-bodied cars are often known. In August 2008 the Ferrari was sold to a collector residing in Hawaii who passed away shortly thereafter, and the car was acquired by its next owner in 2010. This owner retained possession for at least four years before the Inter was later acquired by the consignor in 2018. The new owner quickly entrusted the Ferrari to Fast Cars Ltd. in Redondo Beach, California, for a full mechanical restoration and preparation for the upcoming Mille Miglia Storica. This work included a comprehensive rebuild of the engine, transmission, suspension, and brakes, as clarified by invoices on file. The opportunity was taken to tastefully upgrade a few elements for superior performance and convenience, including the addition of Pertronix electronic ignition, a carbon clutch, and a new custom-built fuel tank. This work also included a refinish of the cosmetics to the current livery of Rosso paint over a new tan leather interior. After successfully completing the 2019 Mille Miglia, the car was returned to Fast Cars Ltd. for continued mechanical restoration work and servicing as needed. This pattern continued for additional events that included the 2019 Colorado Grand, the 2021 California Mille, and a return to the Mille Miglia Storica in 2024 and 2025, where the owner and his son again experienced the enchantment of one of the niche’s most legendary road races. Chassis number 0289 EU continues to be an ideal candidate for rallying use, being equipped with an outside fuel filler and a dash-mounted racing trip meter and altimeter. It is also important to note that the car retains mechanical stampings consistent with factory data, indicating the presence of the original matching-numbers engine, gearbox, and rear axle. Collectors in search of a well-prepared early 1950s coachbuilt Ferrari sports-racing car eligible for major events worldwide need look no further than this stirring Vignale-bodied coupe. As the final 212 Inter clothed by Vignale, it is in a sense the last of a special breed of thoroughbreds. 1953 Ferrari 212 Inter Coupe by Vignale RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Mercedes-Benz R107 was never conceived as an outright sports car. Instead, it represented something far more enduring: a beautifully engineered grand tourer, built with the quiet confidence that quality and longevity would outlast fashion. Introduced in 1971 and remaining in production for almost two decades, it became one of the defining Mercedes-Benz models of its era. Built on a shortened S-Class platform, the R107 combined exceptional solidity with understated elegance. Its design changed little over the years, a testament to how complete the original concept already was. Even today, it feels timeless rather than nostalgic. The 280 SL occupies a particularly appealing place within the range. Its fuel-injected M110 straight-six delivers smooth and refined performance, perfectly matched to the character of the car. Rather than demanding to be driven quickly, it rewards relaxed touring with effortless composure and mechanical honesty. Equally at home with hardtop fitted or roof folded away, the R107 remains one of the most versatile classics of its generation—a car capable of everyday usability without sacrificing its unmistakable period charm. This 1981 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL was delivered new in France and is finished in blue with a black leather interior. It is an honest, well-maintained example that has been enjoyed rather than over-restored. The car has been repainted in the past and presents well, with tidy chrome and correct Mercedes wheels completing its elegant appearance. The soft top is in good condition, while the interior retains its original atmosphere, showing only light patina to the centre console. Air conditioning and heated seats add welcome practicality. Mechanically, the car performs as it should. The M110 engine runs smoothly, the manual gearbox shifts correctly, and the rust-free structure provides an excellent foundation for continued enjoyment. This is an authentic R107 that wears its years with dignity. Not a concours restoration, but a genuinely usable classic that embodies everything Mercedes-Benz intended: understated quality, engineering integrity and effortless long-distance capability. The sort of car that grows more appealing the longer one lives with it. 1983 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Cool Classic Club If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1966-ferrari-275-gtb-alloy-by-scaglietti
Undoubtedly one of Maranello’s most successful vintage models, the Ferrari 275 GTB combined powerful performance and dynamic styling to result in one of the marque’s most celebrated berlinettas. Certain 275 examples claim an increased performance envelope, rarity, and corresponding collectability due to being optioned with lightweight aluminum alloy coachwork and a six-carburetor intake (as opposed to the standard three-carburetor setup). These rare 275 examples are now recognized as 275 GTB/6C Alloys, and they hold a special cachet as the ultimate specification of an already-potent Prancing Horse. According to the research of model expert and respected collector Dyke Ridgley, chassis number 08057 is one of approximately 80 long-nose 2-cam examples to be fitted with alloy coachwork. Per a history report on file by marque specialist Marcel Massini, the 275 was completed in January 1966, originally slated to be finished in Argento over Nero, but ultimately completed in the much more nuanced livery of Amaranto Roma (Italver 16132) over a Nero leather interior. Specified for the European market with instruments in kilometers, the GTB was fitted with three carburetors and clothed in the highly desirable lightweight alloy body. The Ferrari was sold new to the Officine Romanazzi ICAR SpA (Industrie Costruzioni Automobilistiche Roma), a Rome-based company. Less than a year later the berlinetta was serviced by the Ferrari factory’s Assistenza Clienti in Modena, and according to noted Ferrari historian Marcel Massini, around this time the engine intake was upgraded to six carburetors for a specification matching the rare 275 GTB/6C examples. The opportunity was also taken to replace the gearbox with a proper type 563 transaxle, which remains fitted to the car today. In July 1970 the Ferrari was sold by the Romanazzi company to its second owner, a Brazilian enthusiast living in Rome named Mario Sorrentino. Eight months later Mr. Sorrentino sold the 275 to fellow Rome resident Riccardo Di Sandorno. He kept the car for only two months before it was acquired by Mario Terrevoli, who in turn sold it in October 1973 to American businessman Bruce Vincent Madden (who kept addresses at both the Hotel Excelsior in Rome, and in Frankfurt, West Germany). Five months later, in March 1974, Mr. Madden sold the Ferrari to Rudi Klein, the legendary Los Angeles-based dealer who amassed an incredible gathering of rare European sports cars during decades of buying, selling, and collecting. Mr. Klein had the 275 shipped from the German port of Bremerhaven straight to Los Angeles, and he soon advertised the car in the Los Angeles Times, eventually finding a buyer in April 1976 in local enthusiast Peter Civati of Hawthorne, California. Mr. Civati quickly flipped the Ferrari to Sam Drummy, a Hollywood cameraman whose multi-decade career included work on several well-known television programs, including Police Story, Survivor, and Whose Line Is It Anyway?. Mr. Drummy was also a noted Ferrari collector, owning a 365 California and a 365 GTC, and belonging to the Ferrari Owner’s Club. He maintained possession of the alloy-bodied 275 through at least 1980 before the car was exported in 1983 to France and acquired by Bernard Comte of Vaucresson. Mr. Comte enjoyed driving the GTB at a handful of vintage events, starting with the Ferrari Days event held at Modena in September 1983. In 1985 Mr. Comte had the engine overhauled at a shop in Modena, and two years later he presented the 275 at the Club Ferrari France meeting held at the famed Mas du Clos circuit. In 1988 Mr. Comte sold the Ferrari to an Italian dealer, by which point the alloy coachwork had been refinished in Giallo. In November 1989 the Ferrari was sold to a new owner in France, and this caretaker commissioned a restoration of the car highlighted by a refinish of the coachwork in giallo, and reupholstery of the cabin in nero leather. By 1992 the 275 was owned by Parisian resident Jacques Levet, and around this time the car won the Club Ferrari France’s award for Best Restoration. Sold to another French enthusiast in May 1995, the GTB was offered 10 years later and acquired by a German collector residing in St. Prex, Switzerland. In September 2006, the Ferrari was factory-certified with the issuance of a Certificate of Authenticity and a Ferrari Classiche Red Book that indicates the presence of the matching-numbers engine, the period-installed transaxle, and the original alloy coachwork. Registered in Germany, the 275 was serviced at Motor SrL in Modena in September 2008, and shortly thereafter the car was sold to a collector based in St. Raphael, France. This owner enjoyed driving the car in several vintage events, including the Ennstal Classic in July 2009, and the Südsteiermark Classic a year later. In 2011 the Ferrari was acquired by an esteemed British collector based on the US West Coast, and he kept the berlinetta for two years. During this time the respected Hoyle-Fox Classics Ltd. was retained to conduct restoration work that included rebuilding the carburetors, brakes, shock absorbers, and rear suspension; and refinishing a vast majority of the hardware. In March 2013 the Ferrari was acquired by the consignor, a collector based in Connecticut. During his ownership the 275 has benefitted from diligent upkeep while incurring very little road use, accruing less than 2,300 kilometers (~1,429 miles) over 13 years. On three separate occasions between 2015 and 2024 the award-winning Sargent Metal Works was retained to address miscellaneous issues, including servicing the carburetors, rebuilding the distributors, and fitting a new exhaust system that was custom-ordered from Italy. Since 2017 the Ferrari has been fastidiously tended by Gjon Vataj’s Powerplant Motorsports, including a thorough evaluation and freshening in preparation for the current offering. This process has involved servicing and sympathetically refreshing all of the major systems as needed, including replacement of numerous gaskets, hoses, and hardware. Among other measures, new spark plugs were installed, the fuel pump, alternator, and generator were rebuilt; the paint, interior, and engine compartment were detailed; and the wheels were shod with new Michelin XWX tires. Displaying 31,811 kilometers (~19,767 miles) at the time of cataloguing, this beautifully presented Ferrari is accompanied by an owner’s manual and tool roll, and it is documented with an ACI estratto cronologico, factory build sheet copies, the Ferrari Classiche Certificate of Authenticity and Red Book, restoration invoices, and a history report by Marcel Massini. Such a rare and well-presented alloy-bodied 275, upgraded to six carburetors in period, would make a rousing inclusion at any marque gathering, certain to complement the finest sporting collections. 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB Alloy by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

First registered in May 1988 Delivered in Switzerland Matching numbers and color Only two previous owners with original 54,000 km and original paint Swiss road-legal veteran The Mercedes-Benz 500 SL is the perfect combination of luxury, V8 power, timeless elegance, and German engineering—a classic that doesn’t flaunt its status but impresses with style. The Mercedes-Benz 500 SL offered here was delivered in early May 1988 in Astral Silver Metallic with a black leather interior by Kenny’s Auto-Center to its first owner in the Baden area, where the car remained for over 33 years. This beautiful Mercedes-Benz 500 SL, with 54,000 km on the odometer and its original paint, is matching numbers and color. Fresh from service and having passed the MFK veteran inspection, it is in perfectly maintained and immaculately cared-for collector’s condition. The on-board folder containing all original documentation—including the meticulously maintained service booklet, owner’s manual, operating instructions, and emissions maintenance record—is included, as are all keys and the hardtop. 1988 Mercedes-Benz 500SL Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Mercedes-Benz 500 SL offered here was delivered in early May 1988 in Astral Silver Metallic with a black leather interior by Kenny’s Auto-Center to its first owner in the Baden area, where the car remained for over 33 years. This beautiful Mercedes-Benz 500 SL, with 54,000 km on the odometer and its original paint, is matching numbers and color. Fresh from service and having passed the MFK veteran inspection, it is in perfectly maintained and immaculately cared-for collector’s condition. The on-board folder containing all original documentation—including the meticulously maintained service booklet, owner’s manual, operating instructions, and emissions maintenance record—is included, as are all keys and the hardtop.
