June 6, 2012 – A 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO specially built for legend Stirling Moss has reportedly become the world’s most expensive car.

According to Bloomberg, the Apple-Green Ferrari has been bought by American car collector and billionaire Craig McCaw for 35 Million US dollars from Dutch ­businessman Eric Heerema, breaking the record of 32 Million US dollars previously set by a 1964 Ferrari GTO.

Moss’ career-ending crash meant that he would never be able to race the car.
