RM Sotheby\u2019s is no stranger to offering up some of the world\u2019s most coveted vehicles \u2013 spanning vintage, luxury, limited-edition and supercar models. Now the collector car auction company has sold a 1962 Ferrari 330 LM\/250 GTO, chassis 3765 for a whopping $51.7 million USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The impressive figure makes it the most valuable Ferrari ever sold at auction and the second-highest sell price for a car at auction. The vehicle hit the sales floor as a part of Sotheby\u2019s New York sales of Contemporary and Modern Art. The car, which has been in private ownership by a chairman of the Ferrari Club of America for almost four decades, has now become a major part of automotive history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the Ferrari was the only GTO Tipo 1962 raced by Ferrari\u2019s racing division, Scuderia Ferrari. Some of its racing highlights include a class win, runner-up at the 1965 Sicilian Hillclimb Championship and finishing second at the 1962 N\u00fcrburgring 1000 KM \u2013 piloted by Mike Parkes and Lorenzo Bandini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The car appears in Ferrari\u2019s signature red shade with a white and black number seven decal on the side, hood and rear. Take a closer look at the history-making car in the gallery above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
