Every so often, you see cars that were owned by famous people hit the auction block. The latest is this red 2007 Ferrari F430 coupe once owned by none other than Donald Trump.
The Ferrari will be offered as part of Mecum Auctions' 2021 Kissimmee auction, occurring from January 7 to 16. It's estimated to fetch between $400,000 to $500,000.
However, this isn't the first time Trump's Ferrari has been auctioned off. Trump bought the F430 new in 2007 and kept it for more than four years. In March 2017, after he had become president, it went to auction in Fort Lauderdale and left the block at $240,000 - $10,000 less than its estimated sale price. A private bidder later offered $270,000, the auction house said at the time.
The Trump Ferrari will be auctioned off during the final days of his presidential term and, as The Drive pointed out, it's unclear how that will affect its price. The Mecum Auctions listing notes that the car comes with a copy of the original title that bears the address of Trump Tower in New York City, along with Trump's signature.
Surely this is a collector's item for someone, somewhere. Scroll on to see the F430.
