A classic Ferrari once owned by the legendary Cher has fetched an impressive $568,000 at auction. The 1972 Ferrari 246 Dino GTS, originally purchased by the iconic singer herself, was sold for the fourth time in its 52-year history.

Cher’s custom red Ferrari, featuring a 2.4-liter V6 engine and a black Nero leather interior, was a symbol of luxury and style. The sports car, equipped with a 5-speed manual drive, was a rare find and a prized possession for the singer.

Originally bought by Cher in 1972 during the peak of her career, the Ferrari was a reflection of her success and glamour. She later sold the car to famous race car driver Chris Cord, marking a new chapter in the vehicle’s journey.

After undergoing a refurbishment, including a fresh coat of paint and revitalized interior, Cher’s Ferrari was in impeccable condition with only 65,000 miles on it. The car’s legacy and connection to the singer’s iconic style made it a highly sought-after collector’s item.

Cher’s passion for luxury cars extended beyond this Ferrari, as she later acquired another model and customized it to her unique taste. The singer’s love for fine automobiles was a testament to her enduring legacy and timeless elegance in the entertainment industry.
