do you think if i keep my c63 in a shed for 100 years someone will type on an invisible forum that is imbedded in people's heads (which is what the internet will be in the future) saying car sells for 30 billion dollars (inflation).

This past year at the Pebble Beach Concours D'elegance, Ferrari celebrated a 250 GTO reunion. I was lucky to see 22 of the originally built 39 cars lined up side-by-side against the backdrop of the rolling greens of the golf course and the Pacific Ocean. Each of these cars are currently valued between $20-$30 million, depending on provenance and race history. Conservatively, that was $550 million dollars worth of automotive art lined side by side over the length of a football field. imagine if there would have been a tsunami! not surprisingly, the day before at the Laguna Seca Historic races, only 10 of the GTO's actually lined up to race. 2 years ago, at the Ferrari Challenge races at Infineon, a 250 GTO that is owned by a northern California car collector was racing on the track and collided with a one off Michelleto Turbo 308. The right front end of the GTO was damaged, but the Gutsy driver continued to race through the day with the headlight fairing and valence held together with Red Duct Tape! What a sight. Keep in mind, whenever you get that door ding or scuff mark in your C63, it's usually a minor invenience that will be covered by insurance. in the case of the Ferrari racing on Infineon, I'm sure insurance would not cover the damage. in the GTO's case, if covered by insurance, the accident would likely bankrupt some small insurance companies.
