RM Sotheby's has secured the rights to sell off a selection of cars from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum:


The highlights being the 1965 Le Mans winning '64 Ferrari 250 LM & the '54 Mercedes W196 Streamliner driven by Fangio & Sir Stirling Moss. Auction details are still being put together, but from what I've read, the Mercedes looks to be valued as high as $50-70 million & the Ferrari may bring in $40m+ as well.

Another Zonda up for auction in February, this is an all-original Zonda F, #16/25 built to tribute Juan Manuel Fangio. It's currently estimated $10m-$13m, which will be interesting to compare to the Zonda LM that sold for $11m just recently; have so many "unique" 1-offs been crafted that highly original Zondas are now the premium examples people will pay more for? Still a cemented $10 million car now, so I guess it doesn't matter much.
