For more than three decades, the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic has stood as one of the most important annual gatherings of Ferrari automobiles in North America. Its showfield has long welcomed some of the finest cars ever to leave Maranello, drawing a deeply knowledgeable audience united by a shared passion for the Prancing Horse.
In 2026, this blue riband event will also host a highly anticipated live boutique auction presented by RM Sotheby’s. Scheduled for Saturday, February 14, 2026, at 8:30 p.m. (EST), the sale will take place at The Boca Raton, and will feature a carefully curated selection of Ferrari Classiche–certified and Cavallino Platinum Award–winning automobiles spanning more than six decades of Ferrari history. With limited entries and an exceptionally qualified audience, the Cavallino Classic auction offers a singular opportunity for collectors to acquire landmark Ferraris in an environment uniquely suited to their appreciation.
The following six lots headline the sale:
2015 Ferrari LaFerrari (Estimate: $4.45M–$4.75M)
Unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Salon, the LaFerrari marked Maranello’s decisive response to the emerging hybrid hypercar era, combining Formula 1–derived hybrid technology with a rear-placed V-12 in a way only Ferrari could execute. Its 6.3-liter V-12, lifted from the FXX development program, is paired with an electric motor derived from Ferrari’s Formula 1 KERS technology to produce a combined 949 horsepower, propelling the car to 60 mph in as little as 2.4 seconds. Built around a carbon-fiber tub produced alongside Ferrari’s Formula 1 chassis and styled by Flavio Manzoni, the LaFerrari introduced active aerodynamics and a driver-centric architecture that set new benchmarks for performance, engagement, and design. Production of the closed-roof model was limited to just 499 examples, all sold to preferred clients before the first car was completed.
Chassis number 211999 is a particularly desirable example, having been modestly driven and carefully maintained by just two private caretakers, and displaying only 4,788 miles at the time of cataloguing. Finished in Rosso Corsa over a Nero interior with contrasting rosso stitching, it is documented with its original window sticker and Ferrari Classiche Yellow Book, and benefits from consistent servicing by authorized Ferrari dealerships. Offered with its original books, tools, and charger, this LaFerrari represents a cornerstone example from Ferrari’s celebrated “Big Six” hypercars — an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the most significant road cars ever produced by the marque.
1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 by Scaglietti (Estimate: $3.4M–$3.6M)
Among front-engine V-12 Ferraris, few models define the marque’s golden era quite like the 275 GTB/4. Introduced at the 1966 Paris Motor Show, the four-cam berlinetta represented the most advanced expression yet of Ferrari’s classic grand touring formula, combining Gioacchino Colombo’s 3.3-liter V-12, now fitted with dual overhead camshafts, with a long-nose Scaglietti body refined for high-speed stability. Producing greater power and improved drivability through its torque-tube driveline, the GTB/4 became the final and most developed iteration of the 275 series, and is widely regarded as the last of Ferrari’s truly vintage front-engine V-12 road cars. Just 330 examples were produced before the model gave way to the Daytona.
Chassis number 09931 is an exceptional, never-fully-restored example, certified by Ferrari Classiche with a Red Book confirming its original matching-numbers engine, gearbox/transaxle, and coachwork. Finished in the highly elegant and exceedingly rare combination of Rosso Rubino over Beige leather with coveted corduroy cloth seat inserts — one of only six so specified — it has been carefully preserved by just five caretakers over more than five decades. Displaying only 21,277 kilometers at cataloguing, with odometer documentation spanning 50 years, it is among the lowest-mileage GTB/4s known. Benefiting from a sympathetic mechanical overhaul in the 1990s by noted specialist Bob Wallace and exhibited in Preservation Class at the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, this remarkably original 275 GTB/4 stands as one of the finest and most authentic examples of the model to be publicly offered in recent memory.
1955 Ferrari 250 Europa GT Coupé by Pinin Farina (Estimate: $1.3M–$1.6M)
The Ferrari 250 Europa GT occupies a pivotal place in Maranello’s post-war evolution, bridging the bespoke grand touring cars of the early 1950s and the legendary 250 GT line that would follow. Introduced in 1954 as a refined successor to the original Europa, the Europa GT adopted the shorter 2,600-mm wheelbase and Colombo-designed three-liter V-12 that would define Ferrari’s most successful road-car family. Just 35 examples were built through 1956, of which only 27 were clothed in Pinin Farina’s elegant series-produced coachwork, featuring a sweeping beltline and signature egg-crate grille, styling cues that would become synonymous with Ferrari’s golden era. Rare, refined, and historically significant, the Europa GT represents Ferrari’s first true step toward regularized production of the iconic 250 GT.
Chassis number 0405 GT is a particularly distinguished example, having been displayed when new at the 1955 Paris Salon and benefiting from a well-documented history and long-term stewardship. Refinished in its original shade of Grigio Max Meyer 15702 over an Arancio leather interior, it has been the subject of comprehensive mechanical restoration by Mark Allin’s Rare Drive and is certified with a Ferrari Classiche Red Book confirming the matching-numbers gearbox, rear axle, and coachwork, while a correctly specified type 112 engine was custom-built by Ferrari Classiche and marque expert Patrick Ottis. A three-time Platinum Award winner at the Cavallino Classic — also earning the Finest Twelve Cylinder Car and Ferrari Elegance Awards — and exhibited at the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, this Europa GT is ideally suited for premier concours presentation or as a cornerstone of a significant Ferrari collection.
1964 Ferrari 500 Superfast Series I by Pininfarina (Estimate: $1.3M–$1.6M)
Introduced at the 1964 Geneva International Motor Show, the Ferrari 500 Superfast represented the ultimate evolution of Maranello’s flagship Superamerica lineage. Conceived as an ultra-exclusive grand touring coupé, the Superfast combined a long-wheelbase chassis with Pininfarina’s elegant coachwork and a uniquely powerful 4.9-liter Tipo 208 V-12 producing up to 400 horsepower, among the most potent Ferrari road engines of its era. Built in just 36 examples through 1966, the 500 Superfast was aimed squarely at an elite clientele and quickly became associated with royalty, industrialists, and cultural icons, earning its place as one of Ferrari’s most luxurious and performance-oriented road cars of the 1960s.
Chassis number 6033 SF, the eighth example produced, is a particularly compelling Series I car, specified from new in a notably sporting configuration without air conditioning, power steering, or rear seating, and originally finished in the subtle and elegant combination of Grigio Fumo over Nero. Offered from 30 years of ownership with a prominent Ferrari connoisseur, it was restored with great care in 2015, preserving original components wherever possible and returning the car to its factory-correct colors. Certified by Ferrari Classiche and retaining its numbers-matching engine, gearbox, and differential, this exceptional 500 Superfast is accompanied by restoration photographs, invoices, and its Ferrari Classiche Red Book — an outstanding example of one of Maranello’s most exclusive and desirable grand touring models.
2009 Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M (Estimate: $925,000–$1,000,000)
Built to commemorate Ferrari’s 16th Formula 1 World Championship Constructors’ title, the Scuderia Spider 16M stands as one of Maranello’s most focused modern open-top offerings. Limited to just 499 examples, it was derived from the uncompromising F430 Scuderia and retained its high-revving 4.3-liter V-8, producing 503 horsepower and capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds. Despite the addition of structural reinforcements, Ferrari engineers implemented extensive weight-saving measures, including carbon fiber components, forged wheels, and titanium fasteners, resulting in a car that remained remarkably light and exceptionally engaging to drive.
The example offered here is believed to be the only US-delivery Scuderia Spider 16M finished in the striking combination of Blu Pozzi over a Terra Bruciata interior, further distinguished by an Argento Nürburgring and Nero body stripe. Delivered new to California, it was specified with over $18,000 in special features and displays just 5,941 miles at the time of cataloguing. Well maintained throughout its life, including recent servicing by Ferrari-authorized dealers, it is accompanied by its original books, tools, and service documentation, an exceptionally rare and beautifully presented example of Ferrari’s modern championship tribute.
2015 Ferrari 458 Speciale (Estimate: $800,000–$1,000,000)
Introduced at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Ferrari 458 Speciale marked the ultimate evolution of the naturally aspirated V-8 Ferrari road car. Its 4.5-liter engine, upgraded with Formula 1–derived technology and a 14:1 compression ratio, produces 597 horsepower and revs to 9,000 rpm, at the time the highest specific output of any naturally aspirated production engine. Advanced active aerodynamics and Ferrari’s groundbreaking Side-Slip Control system transformed the Speciale into one of the most communicative and capable road cars ever produced by the marque, equally revered on road and track.
This beautifully specified example is finished in Grigio Titanio with Nero Stellato livery stripes and Giallo Modena brake calipers, complemented by optional exposed carbon fiber exterior elements and Scuderia Ferrari shields. Displaying just 4,714 miles at the time of cataloguing, it presents in outstanding condition and has benefited from consistent Ferrari-authorized servicing, most recently in 2025 and early 2026. Accompanied by its window sticker, owner’s books, and car cover, this low-mileage 458 Speciale offers a compelling opportunity to acquire one of Ferrari’s most celebrated modern performance cars.
The RM Sotheby’s Cavallino Palm Beach auction will take place on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at 8:30 p.m. (EST) at The Boca Raton, in conjunction with the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic. Attendance at the auction is limited, and prospective bidders must register in advance.
