Ferrari sets record with 385-car parade

Ferrari owners met on June 9th 2007 to set a new Guinness World Record for the ‘Largest Parade of Ferrari Cars’, with a parade of 385 Ferrari cars, more than triple the previous record, to celebrate Ferrari’s 60th Anniversary and the Ferrari Owners Club GB’s 40th Anniversary.
With several rare cars in the parade, ranging from a 250 California Spider and a 275 GTB/C through to the 250GTO and the FXX, as well as several examples of Ferrari’s supercars, the F40, F50 and Enzo, a conservative estimate of the value of the cars in the parade on Saturday would be in excess of US$ 100 million.

In order to comply with the Guinness World Record’s rules for such an attempt, the cars must all travel over a minimum 2 mile distance, no more than two car lengths apart, and must be counted at the beginning and the end of the parade. The cars completed one full lap and covered a distance of 3 miles, driving two side-by-side around the entire circuit.
