Are you an avid collector of vintage automobiles and are on the hunt for the next four-wheeled-monster to add to your collection? Or are you thinking of getting back into daddy’s good graces after he caught you tearing up the house with all your friends? Well if you have that much money to spare, then this car could be a key addition to your collection, or the key to your daddy’s heart.

This vintage car that I’m referring to is actually the 1956 Ferrari 500 Testarossa. This classic automobile has made the headlines again since its currently being sold on eBay for an astounding $5 million. Now if you’re wondering why this sports car captured the headlines and why it carries a huge price tag, here’s why. Aside from being considered a classic, the 1956 Ferrari 500 Testarossa is quite a catch because it has a very, very limited production run of only 20 units. That’s right, it’s that limited. So if you end up buying this sports car, you’ll be joining an elite group who happens to own a limited and vintage automobile.

Of course, the 1956 Ferrari 500 Testarossa wouldn’t look this dapper if it had not undergone any form of restoration. But even if it did, the restoration process it went through met the highest standards possible. The sports car is now powered by a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine and a four-speed manual transmission.

Aside from taking home the Testarossa, the winning bidder will also take home a series of photographs dating back from the car’s first racing victory in 1957 at the Laguna Seca. So, better fork up that money and break open that savings account if you have any plans of making this car one of your very own or one daddy’s precious four-wheeled babies.
