The auction of records will be held on 20 May 2023 in the splendid setting of Villa Erba on Lake Como. There are as many as 27 models from 3 different collections. The Aurora collection, as reported on Corriere.it, comes from Sweden and consists of 14 cars (not just Ferraris). The Black on Black on the other hand is made up mainly of black Ferraris. The journey through these splendid cars starts from a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta by Scaglietti (whose auction base is 7.5 million) up to the brand new 2020 Ferrari Monza Sp1 which will fetch between 2.5 and 3 millions. Prost's F40: Among all, the F40 will not be missing, which has truly entered the history of all enthusiasts and beyond. Freshly restored it is estimated that it could be sold for 3 million euros. It is the model without a catalytic converter and adjustable suspension that has Ferrari Classiche certification and which attests to the complete originality of each of its components. In reality Prost never drove this car but autographed it and then it was bought by Graham de Zille. Among the other stars of the auction, there is also a 250 GT SWB Berlinetta which can boast a cameo in the very famous film "A Crazy Beetle" from 1968. Its value? Over 8 million euros.
