Is The Ferrari 250 GTO The Ultimate Motoring Dream?

We love the Ferrari 250 GTO here at Garage Dreams. There’s no need to introduce this spectacular car and we envy anyone fortunate enough to drive one.

Petrolicious have done a fantastic video showcasing the 250 GTO. The one in the video below is chassis #5571, and it was the first of the Series II bodies. The 3.0L V-12 produces about 300 horsepower and it completed multiple endurance races, winning its class in the Daytona Continental 2000km (this car’s first race), Sebring 12 hour, and Nassau TT.

The driver is Mr. Derek Hill, who won the Ferrari Challenge International Championship in 1995 and the Formula Dodge West Coast in 1996, and raced a Bugatti EB110 at Le Mans. Additionally, he has a special attachment to this car as it was his dad, Fomula One Champ Phil Hill, that raced it in Daytona and Nassau.

Check out the video below!
