Last week we posted two articles about some really interesting classic supercars that would pass the auction block over the weekend … well, the results are in, and they are surprising, to say the least, the highlight of the day went for halfway between the low and high estimate, but one car really took things to the next level by going for way more than her high estimate.<\/p>\n

The Bonhams The Zoute Sale in Knokke-Heist in Belgium managed to sell over \u20ac26,000,000 (US$ 30,000,000) in just one day, and almost 10% of that number was thanks to one car in particular, the 1994 Bugatti EB110 SS finished in Grigio Chiaro metallizzato (or Light Grey metallic) over a dark blue interior, initially estimated between \u20ac2,000,000 and \u20ac2,500,000 (US$ 2,300,000 and $2,900,000), this one of 30 Super Sport sold for \u20ac2,242,500 or US$ 2,600,000, she didn’t reach her high estimate, but she was the most expensive car changing hands that day.<\/p>\n

But the second most expensive car to go to a new owner was the very low mileage 1989 Ferrari F40, the estimate on that specific car was set at \u20ac1,000,000 to \u20ac1,500,000 (US$ 1,155,000 to $1,734,000), but when the hammer finally came down the bidding reached \u20ac1,840,000 or US$2,131,000 including fees, well above the estimate and a very high price for an F40, it is clear someone was really interested in adding this specific unit to his, or her collection.<\/p>\n

The third car in the top three of highest estimated sales was a very intriguing 2018 Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Speedster, a Storck Vintage Edition that came with an estimate between \u20ac850,000 and \u20ac1,250,000, but that car didn’t sell on October 10, 2021, so the third most expensive car to actually sell during The Zoute Sale was a stunning dark blue 1968 Ferrari 365 GTC with coachwork by Pininfarina, this car was chassis no. 12209 with a matching engine no. 12209, changing hands for \u20ac655,500, only a third of the Ferrari F40 above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
