A dozen cars topped $1 million at RM Sotheby\u2019s Driven to Disruption sale in New York City last week. Leading they way, more or less as expected, was the 1956 Ferrari 290 MM by Scaglietti, chassis #0626, that was built especially for five-time Argentine Word Champion Juan Manuel Fangio to race in the 1956 Mille Miglia. The red Ferrari with the blue and yellow bands around its nose hammered for $28,050,000, ranking it third on the all-time list of automobiles sold at auction. For the record, the first two spots belong to a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO that sold in August of 2014 for $38,115,000, and a 1954 Mercedes-Benz W196 Grand Prix car that sold for $29,967,886 in July of 2013.<\/p>\n

Although a 1962 Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato took runner-up honors in New York with a sale price of $14,300,000, the surprise of the sale was the 1964 Porsche 356 C 1600 SC Cabriolet (above) once owned by rock and blues icon Janis Joplin that brought in $1,760,000, more than twice the expected price. The auction realized total sales of $73.5 million while enjoying a sell-through rate of 81 percent. The 12 top sellers are listed below.
