The Complete Magazine

The Italian supercar-maker's U.S. importer, Luigi Chinetti, wanted a street-drivable open-top car that his customers could race successfully at the track. The cars he requested were named after the hugely successful North American Racing Team.
When it was first introduced, Road & Track magazine referred to the NART Spider as "the most satisfying sports car in the world."
This particular car was originally painted metallic blue. The car had remained in the family of its original owner, Eddie Smith, a founder of National Wholesale Company, a mail-order hosiery firm.

The highest price ever paid for any car at auction was almost $30 million paid for a 1954 Mercedes-Benz race car in a British auction just last month. Both the Ferrari and the Mercedes sales included a 10% commission for the auctioneer.
The Ferrari was sold at an RM Auctions event, one of several collector car auctions held to coincide with the annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance classic car show.
All of the proceeds from the Ferrari sale will go to charity, according to former owner Eddie Smith Jr. He has not yet announced what charities would be receiving the proceeds.Source and More Details
