Just for the record cLyDe 

Lawrence Stroll, the guy that bought the car, is one of those guys that drives the tires off of his cars.  

I've personally seen him racing in the classic challenge races put his GTO full on sideways with smoke (literally) coming off the tires - more than once - pushing hard for nothing more than a plastic trophy.

You'd probably like him too - really nice guy that LOVES his cars, spends real money making and keeping them perfect, and then drives them like he stole them.  Not sure he even owns an ascot - heck, I'm not even sure what an ascot is.

It has found a good home.

It's more stupid people 
With more stupid money
Same shit happened when Enzo died 
My god it's just a car
But hey it is what it is!

Most if not all of these guys who buy the cars are pricks anyway who run around with blazers and ascots 
You see them in the Formula 1 paddock club acting like they know what the are seeing

Much like a kid opening a door while two people are making out!
The kid knows something is going on he just doesn't know what!

Gotta go fly 

If I ever hit the lottery I would buy the cars from those jerks and drive the wheels off them with my friends off this list at a race track 
Because that's where they be long not in some garage catching dusk
These cars have soul !

Stroll officially became a billionaire this year (according to Forbes). He already has a 330 P4 (without any questionable history) and a 250 GTO along with 20+ other Ferraris, a dealership (FoQ) a race track (Mont Tremblant), etc...  

When the big guys want something, stand back.

Pre auction estimate was 12-15 million. One owner car with interesting story behind it, and all proceeds going to charity may surely assist the buyers tax responsibility for this year.

$200k for a NART Spyder?

I'll take one...

$27 mil seemed a little wild. Then again the buyer has major $$$.

My guess was $7-9mil.

So, here is my question,

Are the cars worth these numbers or is money just plain worth far less than it was a year ago?

I love the cars but hate what the auctions are doing, the cars are rapidly disappearing into vaults

Those of you who made the Nationals, did you see the 250 GTO clone that appears to have been a featured car?

Disappointing.
