See exactly how this Ferrari Enzo is in one item? Well it wasn’t constantly. It was associated with a horrendous crash a decade ago that split it clear in half. However it’s long-since been reconstructed and sold for $1.75 million at the RM Sotheby’s sale in Paris on Wednesday.
The supercar belonged to Silicon Valley technology officer Stefan Eriksson, who collapsed it right into a post along the Pacific Coast Highway in 2006. The Enzo was divided in half, with the cockpit and nose on one side of the highway and the engine with its subframe on the other. If it were any kind of less useful an auto, it might have been a full write-off. As the other day’s sale testified, the Enzo was worth dealing with. It was sent out back to the factory where it was fixed, reconditioned to as new, painted from red over black to black over red, and also accredited by the manufacturer.
It was among the top whole lots at RM Sotheby’s auction, however also at that rate, it wasn’t the leading income earner of the day. That honor visited an uncommon 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Aerodinamico, which sold for $3.3 million. Next up was a 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder that opted for $3.07 million, followed by a ’57 BMW 507 Roadster for $2.25 million. The Enzo was available in 5th. Delta Integrale went for $150 grand.
