A 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO just sold for $2,750,000 at an auction in Phoenix, Arizona on January 15. This particular model was one of Ferrari’s most preeminent models and is greatly revered for both its speed and design. The ‘84 GTO runs on a twin turbocharged V8 engine with 400 horsepower and 366 pound-feet of torque, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph in 10 seconds.
