Default Ferrari garage sale

There is some amazing stuff in here. There is also some amazing junk in here too.
http://search.sothebys.com/liveauctions/ev...250_Ferrari.pdf

I'll take the 1961 250GT SWB Berlinetta, please And I'll also take the "2005" #400 Enzo that was presented to Pope John Paul II as well.

Hmmm, I wonder if Sothebys would run a garage sale for me...

Why would you offer a Ferrari to the Pope? That'd be cool driving in the streets of Rome, early morning, letting the staccato of the f-1 motor bounce off the centuries old walls...which is probably what PJP 2 is doing in heaven with his girlfriend, Marilyn Monroe.

Can't believe you can buy a 1997 Ferrari F1 for $1 million. Ofcourse, it will cost u a million or two to run it in a few DE's.

remember that old joke.......the pope tells the limo drive that he wants to drive.....so the pope drives and is speeding....gets pulled over.... the cop goes back to his partner....says "who is in the back of the limo?"..... "I don't know but he's got the POPE for a chauffer.... ahhahaha... old joke.

That's awesome. You can buy a Ferrari F1 engine, or the 2004 F1 car! Nice.

Ferrari must really be hurting for money if they are having a garage sale

Notice that just about half that stuff is old, useless Maserati crap that they have laying around from their short-lived partnership. But now that Ferrari has extracted itself from that deal, it's all got to go.

I also just noticed an error in their documentation on the Ferrari Enzo that should be glaring to any S2000 owner:
The power is exceptional, with 660bhp, the first time a ratio of 110 bhp per litre had ever been achieved on a 500cc-per-cylinder engine.
The 2000-2003 Honda S2000 also had a 500cc-per-cylinder engine, and it made 120 bhp per liter.

Did anyone see the Enzo prototype on page 226?

Damn that thing sure did come a long way.
