MCQUEEN SELLS HIS FERRARI FOR 2.31 MILLION!

The man known most for piloting a Mustang just had his old 1963 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta auctioned off last night at the Christie's auction last night at the Monterey Jet Center, one of the many events that make up the hoopla surrounding this weekend's Pebble Beach Concours. The Ferrari, expected to go for somewhere in the neighborhood of $800,000 to $1.2 million ended up fetching $2.31 million. Although in no means is this a record of any sort (unless you count it as a record for a 1963 Ferrari 250 once owned by Steve McQueen) our estimates peg the selling price to have been...really high. Really, really high actually.
