Classic Italian Cars Headline Scottsdale Auction

Classic Italian Cars Headline Scottsdale Auction


Multi-million dollar Italian sports cars will be the main attraction during the next Scottsdale Auction, held January 20-21 in Scottsdale, Arizona. One of the headline items is certain to be a 1956 Ferrari 500 Testa Rossa, estimated by Gooding & Company, the official auction house of Scottsdale, to fetch $2.1 to 2.6 million. This 4-cylinder Ferrari has an extensive racing history and represents a golden age of competition for the legendary Italian automaker. The Ferrari Testa Rossa would dominate international sports car racing throughout the late-1950s and early-60s.


Other auction highlights include a Lamborghini Miura P400 SV, estimated at $1.2 to1.4 million, and a stunning black Ferrari 275 GTB/4 expected to sell in excess of $1.3 million. Those with more esoteric tastes – and who don’t mind wild purple paintjob – could be tempted to raise their auction paddle for the 1969 Iso Grifo 7 Litre. Combining Italian design and American V-8 horsepower, the Grifo is definitely not a car for the bashful. And for those on a holiday shopping budget, a brilliant blue 1965 Fiat 500F Berlina could be yours for as little as $20,000.
