High hopes for Spyder

A 1963 Ferrari 250GT SWB California Spyder could sell for more than $15million.

A London auction house expects to better the world record price for a Ferrari this month.

The 1963 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder has Hollywood connections, like the 1961 Ferrari California Spyder that sold for more than $15 million this year.

The 1961 model was owned by actor James Coburn; the 1963 variant has appeared in several movies, including being driven by Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.

The auction house is already asking which will be the bigger drawcard - the Ferrari driven by a member of the cowboy hit The Magnificent Seven or the one driven by Charlie's Angels?

Early estimates put the value of the 1963 Ferrari at around $10 million.

Other Ferraris up for grabs at RM Auctions on October 29 include a 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, a prize winner at Ferrari's 60th anniversary concours; a 1965 Ferrari 250 LM Berlinetta; a 1985 Ferrari 288 GTO; and a 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Berlinetta.
