Ferrari 599 China auctioned

Worth €1.2 million

On 3 November, on the occasion of the Gala dinner organized by Ferrari at the Red Gate Gallery in Beijing, the Ferrari 599 China was auctioned and it is now worth €1.2 million.
This jewel, embellished by the fine mastery of Lu Hao, the very first Chinese artist collaborating with the Prancing Horse, was knocked down by an anonymous client from Shanghai.

Apart from the vehicle, other items were up for auction: a suit worn by pilot Giancarlo Fisichella, a helmet and a mini-model of a 599 GTB autographed by Michael Shumacher.
The proceeds generated from the sale of this car will be used on an educational sponsor programme aimed to help young Chinese students and researchers of the Department of Automotive Engineering of Tsinghua University. They will have the chance to study at the Politecnico in Milan and do a stage at Ferrari.

At the Gala dinner there were Ferrari clients, collectors, Managing Director Ferrari Asia-Pacific Marco Mattiacci, artist Lu Hao, Professor Cen Zhangzhi from Tsinghua University, the most prestigious university in China, and the delegate of the Milan Politecnico, Bruno Pizzigoni.
