Not red, but this Ferrari sold for $10.2 million

Prices for the Ferrari Enzo have skyrocketed over the past six months, turning this model into one of the most valuable modern supercars. If you dream of getting behind the wheel of a low-mileage example, it now costs eight-figure sums.

Record sale of a unique Enzo

Recently, a rare 2003 Enzo in Grigio Titanio was sold at a Mecum auction for a stunning $10.23 million. This is an almost incredible result, especially considering that the car does not have the traditional Rosso Corsa red color like most other Enzos. However, undoubtedly, the increase in value is helped by the fact that since its release, the car has covered only 3,027 miles (4,871 km).

Ferrari Enzo prices have skyrocketed over the past six months, so much so that the Enzo has become one of the most valuable modern supercars.

Soaring value

Just last year, pristine Ferrari Enzos typically sold for between $4 and $5 million. However, in January, an Enzo in Giallo Modena, previously owned by Phil Bachman, set a new record, selling for a staggering $17.875 million. On the same day, another low-mileage Enzo changed hands for $11.11 million. Since then, another car was sold in the US for $9.3 million, and a black example went under the hammer for $15.1 million at a Broad Arrow Auctions sale in March.

Classiche certification and uniqueness

This latest eight-figure Enzo is one of only six ever painted in Grigio Titanio and is the only one with a contrasting Pelle Rosso red interior. It was ordered by businessman Chip Connor, who also owned a Ferrari 250 GTO. Although the Mecum listing does not specify how many owners the car has had, its value is enhanced by the fact that it is Ferrari Classiche certified and has clearly been carefully maintained over the past 23 years.

Technical legacy

The Ferrari Enzo is powered by the iconic Ferrari Tipo F140B engine — a 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V12 producing 651 hp and 485 lb-ft (657 Nm) of torque. This engine became the foundation for all future Ferrari V12s, including the 599, F12, LaFerrari, 812, Purosangue, and the current 12Cilindri.

This sale is further evidence that the Ferrari Enzo market is experiencing an unprecedented surge. While prices once fluctuated within a few million dollars, low-mileage examples now consistently cross the $10 million mark, and unique versions, like Phil Bachman’s yellow Enzo, reach nearly $18 million. Factors such as rare color, Classiche certification, and minimal mileage play a special role in this. It is worth noting that the $10.23 million price for a gray car, which is not a “canonical” red, demonstrates that collectors increasingly value uniqueness and individuality, not just traditional colors. This makes the Enzo not just a supercar, but a true investment asset whose value continues to grow.
