At $52million, This Is Now The World's Most Expensive Car (PHOTO)

A 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO in February 2012, became the most expensive car ever sold, fetching a whopping $32 million.

Then, just a few months later, a 1962 GTO, built for the legendary Sir Stirling Moss, broke that record selling for $35 million.

But in the world of Ferraris, GTOs, and incredibly affluent, a $35 million GTO is now a relative steal. That's because a 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO has just sold for $52 million according to Bloomberg, snatching the record as the latest "most expensive car ever sold".

It's only been a handful of months since the sale of the 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spider, becoming the second most expensive car ever to sell at auction, amassing $27.5 million - slotting below Fangio's $29.6 million Mercedes W196 Grand Prix winning car.
