What is so special? Well, to start off with one recently sold for $52 million. Then there is the historical significance of this car. They only made 36 of this model, and all had individual differences. The 250 GTO was built for racing in the GT class, and it did so very successfully. It was powered by a 3.0 liter V12 which developed 300 HP.
Below is a video which explains a lot more about the car.
The driver is Mr. Derek Hill, who won the Ferrari Challenge International Championship in 1995 and the Formula Dodge West Coast in 1996, and raced a Bugatti EB110 at Le Mans. Additionally, he has a special attachment to this car as it was his dad, Fomula One Champ Phil Hill, that raced it in Daytona and Nassau. But what is the car really like? Well, “It’s so hard to describe just how incredible it is to drive this car at speed. I mean, it’s really a certain kind of ecstasy.” We wish we could give you a first-hand account but, just like you, we’re relegated to dreaming. If you’re still reading, thank you. But we know why you’re here, go on now, watch the video. Video by Petrolicious.com.
