Ferrari 250 GTO #18 Brandon Wang Monterey Historic Races Laguna Seca 2004 Limited Edition to 2200 pieces Worldwide 1/18 Diecast Model Car CMC M-255

Product Description

The Ferrari 250 GTO (Gran Turismo Omologato) grew out of the 250 GT series into a competition car in the Gran Turismo category. A road-legal race car was born, enabling the drivers to travel to their races on their own. The basis for the 250 GTO was the Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta SWB model. The 250 stands for displacement in cubic centimeters per cylinder. Ferrari presented the vehicle for the first time at the annual press conference in January 1962 in Maranello.
The accolades of the 250 GTO were impressive to say the least. there were victories at the 12 Hours of Sebring, the Targa-Florio, the 1000 km of Spa-Francorchamps and at Le Mans, where they also finished second OA in 1962 and 1963 and won the GT classification. CMC has replicated this car (Chassis #4219) as it was displayed at Historic Races Laguna Seca 2004. With the same owner from 1993 to date, it is restored to perfection as a centerpiece of Brandon Wang’s collection (USA).
