In May, we saw a Ghibli sell for €220,273 inc. premium. This month, yet another Ghibli tops that number with ease. Of course, it does help that the previous owner was 'Chairman of the Board,' 'Ol' Blue Eyes,' 'The Voice' aka Frank Sinatra. A US car in a US auction spells success. Also, in Italy, a pretty blue-on-blue Merak sold exceptionally well. Here is your overview.
