Gooding Christie's launches full Rétromobile Paris catalogue online
1920 Ballot 3-8 LC Grand Prix Two-Seater.



PARIS.- The official auction house of Rétromobile, Gooding Christie's, has published the entire catalogue for its inaugural Parisian sale online, highlighting 82 exceptional vehicle lots from the world's most esteemed automotive marques. Of note is the especially strong presence of vintage and modern Ferrari supercars, including a 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO, a 2018 Ferrari FXX K Evo, a 2008 Ferrari FXX Evo, a 2021 Monza SP1, a 2013 Ferrari 458 GTE, and a 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Lusso. Some of the most advanced iterations of highly specialized models from the Prancing Horse name, these cars join an already stellar lineup of Ferraris previously announced by the auction house for the upcoming European sale, including the headlining 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta and a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider. The full catalogue can be found online on christies.com; registration to bid for the upcoming sale is also now available to interested parties on christies.com.

“Ferrari sits at the very heart of the collector car world, and we are proud to present a carefully curated selection of Maranello's finest,” said Oliver Camelin, Gooding Christie's Managing Director, EMEA. “From iconic classics to the most advanced XX Programme models, this lineup is a truly exceptional Ferrari offering for our inaugural Paris sale. We look forward to welcoming our international clientele this January at Rétromobile to witness these marvelous offerings in person.”

Leading the lineup is a venerable 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO (Estimate: €6,000,000 — €7,000,000), among the most significant and influential supercars ever built. Powered by a tipo F114B twin-turbocharged 2.8-liter V-8 engine, this 288 GTO is one of just 272 examples built. Exceptionally well preserved and offered from over 30 years of single family ownership, this 288 GTO has only had two owners from new. Showing just over 1,500 km at the time of cataloguing, this low-mileage 1980s supercar icon is well documented and accompanied with a Ferrari Classiche Red Book.

A pair of supercars from Ferrari's XX Programme, the most advanced and uncompromising expression of research and development from the Maranello-based marque, are on offer without reserve. The 2018 Ferrari FXX K Evo (Estimate: €5,500,000 — €6,500,000, Without Reserve) is a track-only hypercar developed within the exclusive XX program, offered only to a hand-selected group of VIP Ferrari clientele. It unites a naturally aspirated V-12 engine with electric torque enhancement, merges computational aerodynamics with immense technical downforce, and pairs driver involvement with telemetry analysis – resulting in a synergistic integration of powertrain innovation, energy management, aerodynamics, and advanced control system. As one of approximately 40 FXX K models built, this single-owner example delivers over 1,000 hp. Finished in Nero over a Nero Alcantara interior, this FXX K Evo shows less than 100 km on the odometer, having been exclusively driven by Ferrari technicians from new. The 2008 Ferrari FXX Evo (Estimate: €4,500,000 — €5,500,000, Without Reserve) is one of approximately 30 FXX examples built in total. This track-only development prototype presents in the rare Evoluzione specification, delivering 860 hp with 60 millisecond shifts. With just one owner from new, it was refinished in black to match the consignor's aforementioned FXX K Evo, as well as the black FXX presented to Michael Schumacher in September 2006 to commemorate his impending retirement from Formula 1.

A specially ordered Rosso Chiaro over Cuoio Toscano 2021 Ferrari Monza SP1 (Estimate: €2,500,000 —€3,000,000) is also on offer from original ownership. Introduced in 2018 as part of Ferrari's exclusive Icona series, the Monza SP1 pays homage to the great sports racers of the 1950s. Ordered new to match the consignor's 1955 Monza 750, this SP1 is one of the most unique and desirable of all modern Ferrari supercars. Presenting in nearly as-delivered condition, it showed just 215 km at the time of cataloguing, and is accompanied by a Ferrari Classiche Yellow Book.

Also offered is a 2013 Ferrari 458 GTE (Estimate: €1,200,000 — €1,450,000), among the most desirable and versatile GT competition Ferraris of its era and one of only 52 examples built by Michelotto S.p.A. Chassis 2868 was delivered new to the legendary Team Taisan, one of Japan's most decorated and enduring privateer racing organizations. Among the most accomplished examples of the marque's final naturally aspirated GT contender, this 458 GTE was the 2013 ACO Asian Le Mans Series champion, and placed 8th in Class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2014. Since its impressive early racing career, it has received expert attention from renowned specialists, including Michelotto, DK Engineering, Pursuit Racing Ltd., and Stewart Roden Motors, today presenting in superb mechanical and cosmetic condition as supported by extensive documentation and a detailed technical dossier.

Harkening back to the Golden Age of Ferrari, the Classiche-certified 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Lusso (Estimate: €1,250,000 — €1,750,000) presents as one of the marque's most beautifully designed Enzo-era road cars. One of just 350 examples built in total, this 250 GT Lusso is finished in its factory-delivered color scheme of Blu Sera (Evening Blue) over Pelle Beige (Beige Leather). Following restoration work performed by Ferrari Classiche in 2017, this gleaming example was exhibited at Ferrari's 70th Anniversary celebration in Maranello that same year.
