The Ferrari F50 owned by Mike Tyson and valued at $5.5 million

The Ferrari F50 once possessed by heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson is anticipated to fetch between $4.5 million and $5.5 million at Gooding & Company’s August 19-20 Pebble Beach auction.

This F50, chassis number 104220, was completed on February 13, 1996. It is painted in the iconic colour Rosso Corsa and is one of only 55 units originally manufactured for the American market.

The auction house discloses that it was conveyed by Ferrari North America to Beverly Hills Sports Car, where it was purchased by broker Nadir Amirvand. It was then soon acquired by Mike Tyson before being sold to Infospace co-founder Kevin Marcus in 2001 via Park Place Ltd.

In the twenty years that followed, the automobile has been held by a number of different collectors. The vehicle’s current owner took it to Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale in May of this year for a significant service that included the installation of a new clutch and tires, as well as work on the front suspension lift and air conditioning. This was done at the same time that the owner also had work done on the air conditioning. Additionally, it was re-accredited for the Ferrari Classiche Red Book, and in June of 2022, the recovered Alcantara panels were installed in the inside. Over the course of the last half year, expenses totaling over $75,000 have been incurred in relation to the vehicle.
