The $3M Ferrari 250 GT Lusso, Porsche 911 GT3RS, Lamborghini Gallardo, and Bentley Continental

Follow me on Instagram: @sarvesh.ramakrishnan, @thesbbros The Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso is a GT car which was manufactured by Italian automaker Ferrari from 1962 to 1964. The one I got the chance to see was the 1964 model. Sometimes known as the GTL, GT/L or just Lusso, it is larger and more luxurious than the 250 GT Berlinetta. Only 350 of these cars were made. It was powered by the latest generation 300 bhp light and compact Colombo V-12 engine with six twin carburetors the reliability of which has become a legend. The value of this car has appreciated over 5 times in the last decade, and will expect to exponentially increase in the next 10 years. This car is currently priced at $825,000, however the value of the car is almost $3M. As a variation of the luxurious 250 GT, the 250 GT Lusso had a spacious interior, made possible by the forward position of the engine; this was an unusual design choice at the time for Ferrari, known for their sports cars which emphasized even front/rear weight distribution. As the car was only a two-seater, there was a fairly capacious boot space with a parcel shelf, covered in quilted leather. Being the last representative of the Ferrari 250 lineage, beginning in 1952 with the 250 S, the end of the production of the 250 GT Lusso in 1964 heralded the beginning of a new generation of Ferraris, increasingly luxurious and refined, such as the Ferrari 275 and 330. The Ferrari 250 GT Lusso also marked the conclusion of a marketing strategy of Enzo Ferrari, according to which "Ferrari racing cars were sold, for car racing lined with the traffic, so that it can make the race competitive". #ferrari #lamborghini #porsche
