A 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO has just changed hands for an eye-watering $70 million, breaking the world record for the most expensive car ever sold (another Ferrari 250 GTO, which was sold in 2013) by an enormous $18 million.
It was purchased by David MacNeil, founder and CEO of WeatherTech, a Chicago-based company that makes automotive floor mats and other accessories. Mr. MacNeil’s GTO bears the chassis number 4153 GT and is finished in silver with a yellow stripe running across the hood from one front wheel arch to the other, although it has also been seen sporting a French racing stripe down the middle throughout the years.
