106 Miles, $20 Million: A Ferrari F50 Is Headed to Las Vegas

A 1997 Ferrari F50 with just 106 miles heads to a Las Vegas auction Oct. 31 with an estimate above $20 million.

Picture a Ferrari so unused it still has opinions about the showroom floor. A Ferrari F50 auction is about to test how much people will pay for a car nobody has really driven. Broad Arrow Auctions says a 1997 F50 with just 106 miles on the odometer is expected to bring more than $20 million, and the sale takes place Oct. 31 in Las Vegas.

That is not a typo.

106 miles is a road trip to the next county, not a life lived. It is the kind of lot that makes bidders sweat before the gavel even rises.

What is actually for sale at the Ferrari F50 auction

Broad Arrow, which is part of Hagerty and announced the car on Oct. 15, is calling it the star lot of its sale at Wynn Las Vegas. The pre-sale estimate is “in excess of $20,000,000.” That is an estimate, not a hammer price, and the reporting does not say whether the car carries a reserve.

The car is chassis 107165, the 334th of 349 F50s built. Maranello Sales Ltd. of Egham, Surrey, delivered it new, and it was one of about 25 F50s sold new in the UK. It wears Rosso Corsa paint over a Nero leather interior with red seat inserts.

It also comes with its factory removable hardtop and flight case, so an owner can set it up as a closed berlinetta or an open barchetta. On top of that, a suite of factory accessories comes with it.

The car behind the Ferrari F50 price

The F50 followed the legendary F40. Its 4.7-liter naturally aspirated V12, derived from Ferrari’s Formula 1 program, makes 513 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque. It sends that power through a six-speed gated manual, according to Autoblog and autoevolution.

There is no ABS, no power steering and no power brakes. It is a raw, loud and demanding machine, which is exactly the point for the people who want one.

Plenty of automakers are chasing that kind of drama today. Porsche, for one, is teasing a new supercar concept with a real key. Still, no concept can match the Ferrari F50 price that scarcity and a V12 command.

Broad Arrow’s Alexander Weaver, a senior car specialist and vice president, put it plainly: “This is certainly the lowest mileage example of an end-of-an-era supercar.” He added that this is “as close as anyone can get today to taking delivery of a brand new F50.”

Here’s the thing: the F50 sale record is $14.6 million

Here is why the estimate turns heads. CarScoops reports the public-auction record for an F50 is $14.575 million, set in August 2026 by a Giallo Modena car. A $20 million result would blow past that by more than $5 million.

By the same report, it would also be roughly four times what pristine F50s fetched three years ago and would put the car in the company of the McLaren F1.

So who pays that? Collectors chasing analog, manual supercars with true scarcity. Mileage is the whole story here. A 106-mile car is a time capsule, and time capsules do not get remade.

A grain of salt on the Broad Arrow F50 claim

Broad Arrow’s “lowest mileage” claim comes from the seller, and the wording is careful. Even the auction house hedges, and outlets that picked up the story say “likely” or “probably.” We could not find an independent registry that confirms it.

The odometer reading is solid. The “lowest anywhere” label is the seller’s, so treat it as such.

What to watch on Oct. 31

The sale is a single-day event with more than 75 collector cars, and this is only the headliner. It is Broad Arrow’s second annual sale as the official auction partner of the Concours at Wynn Las Vegas. Other Ferraris on the block reportedly include a 2025 Daytona SP3, a 2014 LaFerrari and a 2003 Enzo.

Meanwhile, the money in the car world is not all flowing in one direction. Tesla’s Roadster arrived without a price, while this Ferrari F50 auction arrives with a very loud one.

The real question is simple: does the bidding clear $20 million, or does the room blink? A car this clean may be worth whatever two determined bidders decide.

The gavel falls Oct. 31, and a 106-mile Ferrari will either rewrite the record books or become the most expensive lesson in estimates.
