An unknown buyer offered $270,000 for the Ferrari, after it left the podium. According to Hagerty Insurance that is the most anyone has paid at auction for an F430 Coupe with automatic transmission.

While similar versions of the model generally sell for $125,000 to $175,000, auctioneer Auctions America said it expected Trump’s Ferrari to bring between $250,000 and $350,000 due to its brush with celebrity.

Trump owned the vehicle for just over four years before selling it in 2011 to its second owner, who subsequently put the car on the auction block.
