| A red 1957 Ferrari has become the most expensive car sold at auction after fetching $US16.4 million ($A15.7 million).
The Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa prototype, which competed in the Le Mans 24-hour race, was on the block with hundreds of other collectible cars during a series of auctions coinciding with the annual Monterey Car Week gathering in California.
Despite recent sharemarket turmoil, buyers competed aggressively for trophy autos, establishing records for cars and auction houses.
