Everyone Loves Twins: Two Brazen Yellow Ferrari Testarossas to Go to Auction at Silverstone


Two yellow-hot Ferrari Testarossas will roll across the auction block at Britain’s legendary Silverstone circuit later this month.

The first Prancing Horse is a 1986 model, and is claimed to have been impeccably maintained by its two previous owners despite clocking 45,000 road miles. Two distinguishing features of this early model are the single “flying mirror” and the center-lock “knock off” wheels, which should help in pushing bidders towards the $100,000 mark.

The second car is a 1994 F512 M, which makes it one of the youngest of the Testarossa family and one of only 501 F512 Ms ever made. Like the ’86 model, the F512 M is powered by a 4.9-liter flat-12, but manages to churn out 440 horsepower, 50 more than its older sibling. Due to this F512 M’s rarity and low mileage (approximately 11,000 miles), we expect to see bidding move north of $300,000.
