    If youre thinking of the 288GTO, i wouldnt think so? they made over 200 of them, therefore i beleive there may be some slightly more limited cars than that here in Aus.

    The yellow roofed Red Enzo, Fox owners would be the rarest since no other Ferrari in the world is painted like it :p

    Dunno, haven't seen it and don't know it's condition but they are hot at the moment, as a guess, probably upwards of 2 to 2 1/2 Mil USD assuming it's as unmolestered as it's supposed to be.

    My guess would be somewhere around $1.3 million US dollars. The Australian market is pretty thin at that sort of price point.

    Nah, not unless it's an aluminium bodied "hotrod". At the end of the day it's worth what somebody will pay for it. Strange things can happen when you consider that it is in Australia and fully duty paid. Factor that into the world market price.

    Hmm, not too sure about that, you wouldn't sell it here for a start and it's only a steel body yes but it is LHD and one owner. If you look at the cars that have brought really big money in the last 12 months, they have been the unmolestered "No stories" cars to quote our friend.

    I very much regret not going down to see it when it was here.

    Didn't Sir Paul Vestey bring his GTO over for Classic Adelaide one year?

    Yes, very true; but it's a big stretch from the average price for a steel bodied car at early $1 million US to north of $2 million. In any case, it is a wonderful example as you say. I last saw it "in the flesh" in 1989.

    It'll be staying in the family along with Dean's other 17 cars. David is very much a car guy and has already added a 246 to the collection and it looking to add more.
