The Ferrari LaFerrari has set a new record for the highest price ever achieved by a 21st-century car at auction
The price achieved for theLaFerrari is not only a record for the model but for any 21st century car, beating the previous record set by a LaFerrari at Daytona, which sold for $7 million to raise funds for earthquake victims in Italy.
The Aperta was built as an addition to the initial 209 LaFerraris produced, and is finished in a unique metallic Rosso Fuoco livery with double metallic Biano Italia racing stripe on its bonnet and tail.
Several other Ferraris also sold at Fiorano, including a California 250 GT SWB for €7.9 million, a 1958 250 GT Cabriolet Series I for €4.7 million and the aluminium-bodied 365 GTB/4 rediscovered in a Japanese hayloft, which changed hands for €1.8 million.
