- The Giallo Modena Enzo sold for $17.87 million, crushing the previous $6.26 million record set in 2023
- Only 36 Enzos were built in this shade of yellow, with just 11 residing in the US
- The car shows 649 miles and carries factory Rosso and Giallo Daytona-style seats
Ferrari is known for breaking its own auction house price records. In 2023, a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO reset the ceiling at $51.7 million. Last year, a one-off black and yellow Daytona SP3 became the most expensive new Ferrari ever sold at roughly $26 million.
Now it’s the Enzo’s turn.
The car, part of the late Phil Bachman Collection, just went under the hammer at Mecum Kissimmee and obliterated the previous Enzo record of $6.26 million set back in 2023. That’s almost triple the previous sales mark.
One of 36 Yellow Enzos Ever Made
The car is finished in Giallo Modena paintwork, with only 36 examples of the Enzo produced in this yellow colour. Only 11 of these are in the United States. The Rosso and Giallo Daytona-style interior is a bold statement. Some will call it bold. Others will call it excessive. Either way, it’s unmistakable.
Mileage seals the deal, with the odometer reading just 649 miles at the time of sale, low enough to satisfy collectors without tipping into delivery-mile fragility. It’s Ferrari Classiche approved, features Red Book certification, and has been awarded Platinum Awards and The Supercar Cup at the Cavallino Classic of 2011.
Special factory touches include polished engine bay braces, body-colour lower trim and rear diffuser panel instead of black, and a polished chrome Enzo Ferrari signature badge on the tail.
Bachman’s Collection Broke Multiple Records
Bachman’s collection featured 46 Ferraris, all of which sold with no reserve. His 288 GTO sold for $8.5 million, shattering the existing record by nearly double. His F50 brought $12.2 million and his La Ferrari coupe sold for a new record of $6.7 million.
The Ferrari Enzo is one of the last remaining analog supercars. It’s powered by a 6.0-liter V12 making 651 horsepower, mated to a six-speed automated manual driving the rear axle. Only 400 units of the Ferrari were produced.
At $17.9 million, the message is simple. Yellow doesn’t just stand out. It commands a premium that the market is clearly willing to pay.
