Seven dream Ferraris, all in one place and ready to find new owners over two nights.
On August 14 and 15, 2026, in Monterey, California, a lineup of hypercars and one-offs from Maranello will tell a 40-year story, stretching from the rally-inspired 288 GTO to the Ferrari Luce "Chassis 0," the showcase car for the brand's Tailor Made program. For collectors with deep pockets, this is the kind of auction that can completely transform a garage.
Each car has its own unique story, from incredibly low mileage and Ferrari Classiche certification to famous former owners like Mike Tyson and Lee Iacocca. Here's a closer look at the seven Prancing Horse models set to steal the spotlight in Monterey.
The Ferrari 288 GTO is the grandfather of every modern Ferrari hypercar. Originally developed to compete in Group B of the World Rally Championship, Ferrari was required to build road-going versions for homologation. But before the car could fulfill its intended purpose, the series was canceled over safety concerns.
By then, Maranello had already created something extraordinary: a lightweight chassis made from aluminum and Kevlar, a twin-turbocharged 2.8-liter V8, and performance figures that made the 288 GTO the fastest production car in the world in the mid-1980s.
The example headed to Monterey, chassis 54789, is the 99th of just 272 cars built. Finished in Rosso Corsa over a black interior, it was optioned with air conditioning and power windows. The car was originally ordered by German businessman Hans Breidenbroich, who ultimately never took delivery, leaving it at the dealership for years.
It later passed through the collections of several enthusiasts, including Pierre Fandel and Eckhard Bluhm, spending much of its life on display and seeing very little use. Today, the odometer shows just 932 miles. The car has been fully recommissioned by an authorized Ferrari dealer in the United States and carries Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming that it remains a matching-numbers example with its original engine, transmission, and chassis intact.
The Ferrari F40 is the quintessential supercar of the 1980s. It was the last Ferrari developed during Enzo Ferrari's lifetime and served as the spiritual successor to the 288 GTO, taking aim at rivals like the Porsche 959. Underneath its iconic shape is a tubular steel chassis, double-wishbone suspension, ventilated disc brakes, and a body made from carbon fiber and Kevlar, honed in collaboration with Pininfarina's wind tunnel.
Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V8 paired with a five-speed manual gearbox featuring Ferrari's signature exposed metal shift gate—a setup that still delivers thrilling performance nearly four decades later.
The example headed to auction, chassis 87345, is the 94th F40 built for the US market, one of just over 200 examples destined for American buyers. Finished in classic Rosso Corsa with the distinctive Stoffa Vigogna cloth interior, it was originally owned by Lee Iacocca, the executive best known for helping launch the Ford Mustang and later leading Chrysler. As a VIP customer, Iacocca received the car directly from Ferrari.
Since then, the F40 has passed through only a handful of owners and accumulated very few miles, spending much of its life on display. One particularly charming detail hides beneath the nose: a pair of small skateboard wheels mounted as a homemade defense against steep driveways and speed bumps—an ingenious solution from the days before front-axle lift systems became commonplace.
With the F50, Ferrari set out to bring the Formula 1 experience closer to the road. The car featured a carbon-fiber monocoque chassis, Pininfarina-designed bodywork, and a removable hardtop that transformed it from a coupe into a targa. Most importantly, it was powered by a 4.7-liter V12 derived from Ferrari's early-1990s Formula 1 program.
The example headed to Monterey, chassis 104220, is one of just 349 F50s ever built. Finished in Rosso Corsa over a black interior with red accents, the US-spec car was delivered new in California.
Its collector appeal is elevated even further by its first owner: former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, a longtime supercar enthusiast. After Tyson, the F50 passed through the collections of several American owners and was consistently maintained by Ferrari specialists, receiving major service work along the way. In 2008, it earned Ferrari Classiche certification, confirming the originality of its major components.
Now nearly 30 years old, the car has accumulated remarkably few miles and arrives at auction with its removable hardtop, matching luggage set, original manuals and brochures, and even a pair of Everlast boxing gloves signed by Tyson—a unique piece of memorabilia that brings together pop culture and automotive history.
