Rare Ferrari Race on display
Ferrari racer of
1960s was the most expensive car of Vancouver international auto show 2017. Its

get in a $14M car these days, they’ll say simple mechanics and a room enough to
pack one kid at a time.
This car was
sold to a doctor whom Ferrari knew and enjoyed a long racing career, at one
point placing second overall in the La V Coppa Sant Ambroeus in Monza, Italy.
The engine is
water cooled V12 with a single overhead cam that produces 280 horse power. It’s
something that everyone wants to get a glimpse of.

the earth. Well, Ford’s Halo the GT, sat loud and proud for all to see. The

your thing, don’t worry Ford’s lemans simulator is parked next to it. A
colourful mixture of McLaren’s, Lamborghinis, Porches and Ferraris stood proud
and even classic cars like 1960 Ferrari and 1957 Maserati gave them tough
competition for viewer’s attention.
