The Ferrari 250 GTO was made from 1962 to 1964. There were 39 produced. Today's going rate for a good 250 GTO is in the $10,000,000 range! Obviously this is the way beyond the budgets of most mortals.
The design of the GTO was instantly and universally admired. Its appeal has withstood the test of time, and it is considered to be one of the best looking sports cars of all time.
In the years this car was produced, the championship was limited to competition among mass produced sports cars. There were minimum numbers of cars that had to be produced in order to "homologate" the model for racing. In reality, this car differed significantly from the standard GT, both mechanically and cosmetically. If labeled as a different model (which it was), many more than the 39 cars actually produced would have been required.
In order to help insure the success of this sham, Ferrari even interspersed the GTO production numbers among those of the GT so it would look as though the two models were produced on the same production line. Ferrari insisted the GTOs were the same as the GTs, only with optional bodywork modifications. In actuality, each GTO was hand-built, and many variations exist from car to car.
