The Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa is estimated at about $30 million to $40 million or more in 2026, as a private and off-market indication rather than a recent auction result, against a reported original price of about $12,000 for the prototype. It is one of the most important sports racing cars Ferrari ever built, a front-engined V12 racer of 1957 and a multiple endurance winner, not a road variant of the 250 GT but a pure competition car.
The 250 Testa Rossa, named for the red-painted cam covers of its Colombo V12, is a landmark sports prototype that took Ferrari to victory at Le Mans and other endurance classics. Prototype, works and customer cars differ significantly in specification and body, so values vary widely from car to car. A period market reference records a reported original price of about $12,000 for the prototype, chassis 0666 TR, but there is no evidence every customer car sold at that exact figure.
Public transactions are rare and dated, so any figure is an indication rather than a live market price. The prototype 0666 TR sold for $16.39 million in 2011, and a private sale of around $39.8 million was reported in 2014. On that basis a 2026 estimate of about $30 million to $40 million or more is reasonable, but it should be read as a private indication, not a recent auction benchmark.
Every version of the 250 has its own dedicated price guide. Values move independently from one version to the next, so open the exact car you are tracking.

Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa price in 2026: market value, comparables and where to buy.
It is estimated at about $30 million to $40 million or more, as a private and off-market indication rather than a recent auction result. Prototype and customer variants differ widely, so any figure is indicative.
A period market reference records a reported original price of about $12,000 in 1957 for the prototype, chassis 0666 TR. Ferrari did not publish a reliably documented uniform MSRP, and individual competition cars may have differed by specification, so it is best treated as a reported figure.
The prototype 0666 TR sold for $16.39 million in 2011, and a private sale of around $39.8 million was reported in 2014. Recent public, comparable sales are limited, which is why 2026 values are given as an estimate.
No. The 250 Testa Rossa is a pure sports racing car, distinct from the road-going 250 GT models such as the California Spider and the SWB. Its value comes from its competition record and rarity.
