Ferrari 250 Testa rossa - A Ferrari Racing icon.

Testa Rossa is a legendary name among Auto Enthusiasts, The Ferrari red-head won its first race 64 years ago - and once it started, it couldn’t stop.
The Testarossa was and will forever remain an incredibly important model in Ferraris history. It won 10 World Sports Car Championship victories including the 24 Hours of Le Mans three times, the 12 Hours of Sebring three times, the Targa Florio in 1958, the 1000 Km Buenos Aires twice and the Pescara 4 Hours in 1961. All these results led to World Sports Car Championship constructor's titles for Ferrari in 1958, 1960 and 1961.
Because of this, the Ferrari 250 Testarossa has become one of the most expensive cars in the world. The Ferrari TR has sold in the past at auction for $14 Million dollars, but today it has skyrocketed in price. The 1959 250 Testarossa, of which only 3 were made, is valued at around $60 Million dollars.
What makes the 1959 TR different from the other 30 Testarossa built is that all 3 cars were factory driven, they all have unique gearboxes, were right hand drive cars, and all had their engines offset by 4 inches. This means if you are looking directly at the car the hood scoop and carburetor trumpets will be offset to the right of center by 4 inches.
This particular car in the video is a replica, built to the highest standards of any replica on the planet. Other lesser replicas can be easily spotted by simply looking to see if the engine is centered or not, whereas this car copies every aspect of the original including the engine placement. This car was built by James Allington, who happened to own one of the 3 real 1`959 250 Testarossa’s, which means he was able to have is real car disassembled and copied down to the very last detail.
