2004 Maserati MC12 Coupe – $1,072,500
Posted on Jul 31 - Filed Under Cars | View Comments
One of 50 built in 2004 and 2005. The first example imported into U.S. Built on an Enzo Ferrari platform. List price of $799,000. Naturally asperated, paddle shifter, carbon fiber body. In as-new condition with little sign of use.
Top end speed of 205 mph. Zero to 60 in 3.8 seconds. MC12Rs have won two of three FIA GT Championship races. If you want a street legal race car, this is it. More rare than an Enzo, but not legal in California—so you don’t have to worry about letting a guy named Dietrich drive it and wreck it.
