Simon Cowell just sold his last week. 1,300 miles on the clock. He replaced the tires just before putting it up for auction.

$42,000................for the tires, not the car.

Let's see: An original one owner car, and one of only ten twelve cylinder twin cam Ferrari Spyder's ever made, only nine of which still known to exist (Steve McQueen destroyed his in an accident), all of which were originally sold to existing Ferrari owners of some note in North America, and now are rarely ever seen outside of private collections.

Somehow I doubt your prediction will come to pass...............

These are like works of art. Picasso, von Gogh, da Vinci and so on. You buy them and admire them. Unless your Leno, you don't drive them.
