The Ferrari 250 GTO is the most desirable and valuable car in the world,and is surrounded with controversy and myth. Many people will argue that the best car in the world is the Ferrari GTO. While more modern supercars surpass the GTO in terms of performance, none excel better in both form and function. During its heyday, the GTO dominated the World Sports Car championship, and it is still one of the most beautiful shapes ever to grace a Ferrari chassis.
The numerical part of its name denotes the displacement in cubic centimetres of each cylinder of the engine, whilst GTO stands for “Gran Turismo Omologato“, Italian for “Grand Touring Homologated.” In 2004, Sports Car International named the 250 GTO number eight on the list of Top Sports Cars of the 1960s, and number one as the Top Sports Cars of All Time. Similarly, Motor Trend Classic named the 250 GTO as number one in their list of the “Greatest Ferraris of all time”.
