DONALD Trump’s old Ferrari has gone under the hammer — and experts are predicting a stunning seven-figure sale.
The former president’s ride, which was purchased in 2007 for around $197,000, has gone to auction twice in the last five years.
The last time was three years ago, when the classic red F430 coupe with just 9,000 miles on the clock was sold for a cool $250,000.
“Donald J. Trump’s Ferrari F430 Coupe is no ordinary luxury car — it’s a piece of American history,” claims Rockstar Auctions, which is sanctioning the sale that started on February 16 and runs until March 9.
“The car is a rare combination of high-performance engineering and celebrity ownership, and it is expected to attract significant interest from collectors, Ferrari enthusiasts, and political memorabilia investors alike.”
The Ferrari F430 Coupe, produced between 2005 and 2009, has a 4.3-liter V8 engine that generates 483 horsepower, propelling the car to a top speed of 196 mph.
While Rosso Corsa red with a beige leather interior is a classic combination, the F430 was available in other colors and configurations.
Prices for used models range from under $80,000 to over $300,000, depending on the model year, mileage, condition, and specific options.
LEGACY PURCHASE
Auctioneer and classic car expert Tony Rienzi spoke to The U.S. Sun ahead of the next sale and admitted he expects its value to increase “between three to four times,” given Trump’s return to the White House.
He also claimed that most of the interested parties will be Republicans but refuses to rule out fast-car-loving Democrats.
“This car appeals to both car enthusiasts and Trump fans,” said Rienzi, who is based in Boca Raton.
“Some bidders may not even be car people — they just want a piece of Trump history.”
The Rosso Corsa red Ferrari, with a tan leather interior, has just 9,395 miles on the odometer.
It is described as being in pristine condition, having been kept in climate-controlled storage.
Along with the car, the sale includes the original title signed by Trump, a warranty card, the original window sticker, a Ferrari car cover, seat covers, and a matching carry bag.
It even has Trump’s initials engraved on a New York state license plate on the car itself.

“It doesn’t add monetary value directly, but it provides authenticity and proof of ownership,” Explained Rienzi.
“Provenance is everything in the car world.”
Rockstar’s description highlights the connections to Trump while praising the car.

Rockstar Car AuctionsThe tan leather interior has been meticulously preserved[/caption]Rienzi says that when it comes to flashy cars, Trump has a closer association with the Lamborghini Diablo Roadster.
In the case of this sparsely used Ferrari, it was probably purchased to become part of a collection.
“Owners keep the mileage low to preserve value,” he said.
The expert added that celebrity-owned cars often “command premium prices” at auction and that Trump’s ownership “adds an extra layer of intrigue and value to this already iconic vehicle.”
That’s not to say, however, that every car pre-owned by a notable figure is a surefire seller.
Rienzi recalls trying — and failing — to offload a vehicle previously owned by disgraced financier Bernie Madoff.
“When people heard his name, they ran,” he said.
“But with Trump, the current market and his resurgence make this the right time to sell.”
