    Further the value's of the 1970s cars are escalating rapidly with 1980s also increasing. For example some of the rare Testarossa variants are now. I believe this is directly due to children and teens of the period being at mature stages of their lives and choosing to buy hero cars that they directly relate to. Daytona's are now nearly a million and everything newer, except the supercars, were built in much higher numbers but will we see other's heading towards a million? You only need look at Lamborghini Countach prices to see where this might go.

    I think that would blow a hole through 100mm. It will be interesting to see you add up the final once the auction is done.

    Sure. I am looking forward to the weekend. Attending Monterey is on my bucket list and while I won't be there this year the time gap to here in NZ means the auctions screen from mid morning til late afternoon next saturday, sunday & monday. Will try to watch most and certainly will be updating sales prices, volumes and statistics there-in. Will also give my thoughts on values (the cars not the good family values bs) besides.

    Thanks for posting Marcel. Please PLEASE feel free to post any thoughts along with anyone else attending or watching the auctions who might have anything to add.

    RM especially look to have done a fabulous job of staging and presenting one of the best auctions ever. Will check out their catalogue online. Wish I was there.

    Tim. Sorry to hear about your son. Picking up on the detail of the 250LM #6105. ..I was involved in the sprint/hillclimb scene in the sixties. As quoted,Ron could often gain a class win .or an FTD,but that level of events,our car could give him a run for his money !. We met up often,most weekends,and he would arrive in his road car (275 GTB) and the boot would be full of food and wine. Great guy,good fun.

    Thank you for the work. Would be great for us to update the list with actual sold values including commission as they sell.
    I have driven the interim - fantastic is the only word I can think of.

    Patience my friend and all will be revealed..... Oh you have actually driven it. I might well imagine it would be fantastic to drive. Although I understand the naysayers I actually like the styling and it is certainly rarer than some garden variety SWB.

    Michael, excellent to hear some first hand memories. Feel free to share.

    Anyway much more to come over the next few days and then it will be all rather busy.... :)

    I have written some value assessments for the big 8 cars that I expect will hit $10 million or more........

    Ferrari 250GT "Tour de France" Berlinetta
    Ferrari 250GT California
    Ferrari 250GT "Interim" Berlinetta
    Ferrari 250GT Short Wheelbase Berlinetta
    Ferrari 250LM
    Jaguar C-Type
    McLaren F1

    Let me make it clear that I am not a high end dealer nor am I Marcel Massini but most of the information about these cars and what they are worth can be taken from public record if you have time, which I do. Each value assessment contains a model overview, potted history of the individual cars, sales over the last decade and discussion about the cars for offer over the next few days. They are Word documents up to 10 pages long, so will need to be emailed and if anyone would like to read one or all of them, flick me an email or PM me....
