I think the buy-in for an FXX (if you are chosen by Ferrari) is close to 2.5 mil alone. And I am not really sure what the auction price would be for an F40 / Enzo these days. I think we are easily north of 4.

FXX is 1.8 million (no premiums and dealer costs/tax), then the F50 and F40 are worth over 1 million. You've still got the GTO (500k+) and the Enzo left

Nice! Those are all race / GTR versions too, not standard GTO, F40, or F50. Makes the Lancia Stratos behind the truck look as average as an Accord!

The S4 and 037 Stadale in the back aren't half bad either...

You're right, that's one of 3 F50 GTs in existence, I'd say that throws the speculation on their value way out of wack. F40 LM, 288 GTO Evoluzione.
