It can be difficult to keep all of the different Ferrari 250s straight, as the number was attached to nearly every prancing horse for a period running from the early ’50s until well into the ’60s. But the 250 GT/L Berlinetta “Lusso” does at least give you hint as to its purpose right in the name, as “lusso” is Italian for “luxury.” While many of the iterations of the 250 were made to skirt the line between road car and track car, the Lusso was an unapologetic luxury road car, to an extent that was uncharacteristic (though not entirely unheard of) with Ferrari at the time. RM Auctions has one of the just 350 units of the Lusso built, and it’s going up for auction soon. This particular example is the 21st Lusso ever built, which went to a dealer in Belgium in early 1963. Interestingly, the car wasn’t actually sold to a private owner until 1967, after it had made a trip across the Atlantic to the U.S. It made its way back to Europe in the ’90s, and underwent an extensive restoration from 2009 to 2011, and all numbers are still matching.
