Got a Spare $12-Million? Ferrari Collection Up for Gooding & Company Auction
Oh, boy, if you were on the hunt for an amazing and expensive Ferrari Collection of vehicles to buy up, then you’re wanting to look at the January 29 and 30 Gooding & Company Auction. There, they will sell off select Ferraris from the Tony Shooshani Collection and they are some rare classics indeed.
F40, F50, Enzo, just those three names alone make this collection worth it but there will be more. The 1960 250 GT Series II Cabriolet, the 1964 250 GT Lusso, the Dino 206 GT, and the 328 GTS will all be up for grabs in 2016.
“We are honored to have a part of one of the most esteemed Ferrari collections in North America from such an astute and refined collector,” states David Gooding, President of Gooding & Company.
“These three supercars within the Shooshani Collection perfectly illustrate the evolution of Ferrari’s engineering and lineage, with all eight Ferraris possessing a noteworthy individual history.”
Just who is Tony Shooshani and how did he become such an avid collector of some very fine Ferraris? “Tony Shooshani is a widely published and renowned Ferrari collector; his love and passion for the Italian marque runs through every division of the company,” writes Gooding & Company, “Mr. Shooshani does not just collect these rare thoroughbreds, but thoroughly enjoys his collection… Mr. Shooshani’s close relationship with Ferrari has provided him access to original build information on numerous Ferraris that he has restored and certified with Ferrari Classique at the Ferrari factory in Maranello.”
Don’t worry, Mr. Shooshani will not be without some more awesome examples. “Sharing his exceptional collection, such as his tailor-made LaFerrari and his one of six Ferrari Sergios, has always been at the center of his belief and purpose in collecting and preserving priceless Ferraris. Tony doesn’t consider himself just an owner of Ferraris, but rather a caretaker, maintaining them for their historic value in an effort to assure their posterity, beauty, originality and value to live on for generations to come.”
