1963 | Ferrari 250 GTE

**Ferrari’s first production four-seater, the 250 GTE was first seen by the public at the 1960 24 Hours of Le Mans, where it was used as the course marshals car. At the time, Ferrari’s dominance in motorsport was undeniable, but with the 250 GTE, the company sought to bring in new buyers that might be looking for a more refined driving experience, albeit one that rests on the laurels of the Scuderia’s competition pedigree. An official launch would follow a few months later at the Paris Motor Show, and this was considered a true rival to similar cars from Aston Martin and Maserati. The 250 GTE quickly became one of Ferrari’s best-selling cars, with a total of 954 examples produced between 1960 and 1963.
Delivered new in March of 1963, was the 735th 250 GTE produced. Falling into the third and final series of production, it was the 81st of just 300 third series 250 GTEs constructed. Originally finished in Grigio Argento (18940 M) over Pelle Nera leather upholstery (VM 8500)
