10 Of The Most Expensive Ferraris Money Can Buy
No brand captures the allure of motoring quite like Ferrari. Whilst it is understandable to think things have got a bit predictable with Ferrari in recent years, this is a company that knows a thing or two about creating fast and gorgeous cars. Seeing anything come your way in the stunning Scarlet Red of Ferrari gives a feeling that nothing else on earth can provide.
Naturally, with such an evocative name comes a high price tag. Ferraris never, ever come cheap. Even their “cheaper” alternatives are still way out of the average person’s price range. Over time, some Ferraris have reached ridiculous prices, especially so as they got rarer and rarer. This list will take a look at some of the most expensive Ferraris that money can buy in 2021.

Not only is the Ferrari FXX-K one of the most expensive Ferraris in the world, but it is also one of the most outrageous.
The FXX-K is a track-only monster, with a Formula 1 style KERS system that can power it to a ridiculous top speed of 217 mph and with a total power output of 1,036 hp. Understandably, this thing has never been street legal. It is the ultimate track-only Ferrari.
9Ferrari LaFerrari: $5,000,000
The LaFerrari is probably one of the best Ferraris created in modern times. It’s one of the “holy trinity” of hypercars that includes the McLaren P1 and Porsche 918.
The LaFerrari is powered by a V12 hybrid engine, that in total produces an eye-watering 950 hp and spawned the LaFerrari Aperta variant. The top speed of the LaFerrari is 220 mph, which is probably plenty.
8Ferrari Enzo: $2,640,000
The Ferrari Enzo needs little introduction. no doubt about it. Named after the founder of Ferrari himself, the Enzo incorporated the very best of Ferrari’s F1 technology and its road car technology back when it debuted in 2002.
The car is powered by an F140 B V12 engine and had a top speed of 221 mph, and a total power output of 651 hp, which was ridiculous for the time and still impressive today.

1Ferrari 250 GTO: $70,000,000

The most expensive of these has allegedly sold for a staggering $70 million in a private auction, making it by far the most valuable classic car money can buy.
