Considered by many to be the most beautiful sports car in the world, the Ferrari 250 GTO is also one of the rarest and most desirable, since it was the last front-engine racing sports car that was competitive on the world stage. Its legendary initials stand for “Gran Turismo Omologato.” One hundred cars were to be homologated for Grand Touring competition, but only 36 were constructed.
