The Lot
Widely regarded as the most iconic and, subsequently, most valuable Ferrari ever created, the 250 GTO is celebrated for its racing pedigree and beautiful lines, which have cemented its status as an icon in the collector car world.
Ralph Lauren’s passion for cars is well known, and his private collection ranks among the most admired in the world. This 1:8 scale 250 GTO model, handcrafted by Amalgam, faithfully replicates chassis no. 3987GT - one of the jewels of Ralph Lauren’s famed collection.
Produced under official Ferrari license and developed with the support of Mark Reinwald, curator of the Lauren collection, it comes complete with a certificate of authenticity identifying it as one of just 99 examples built. The model is created entirely by hand using an advanced 3D scan of the original car, accurate to one-tenth of a millimetre and requiring more than 3,000 hours to complete, showcasing incredible detail throughout.
