2012 Ferrari FF - Click above for high-res image gallery
Are you a mega-wealthy car enthusiast that's always eager to be first in line when it comes to supercars? Here's a tip for you: Buy a plane ticket (or fuel up the jet) and head on down to Florida for the Boca Raton Concours d'Elegance.
Now in its fifth year, this upper-crust car show has been gaining momentum in the concours community, in part by scoring a lot of "firsts" for the auction portion of its event. Auctiongoers in past years have had a shot to buy the first U.S. examples of the
Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 and
Spyder R8,
Ferrari California and
458 Italia and the
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.
On the docket for this year's festivities? How does the
2012 Ferrari FF,
2012 Audi R8 GT and
2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster. According to
The DuPont Registry, each car will be the first of its kind sold in the United States. If you need to pick up something for your kids or the wife, Mercedes has also supplied a
2012 CLS63 Limited Edition, of which only 30 are to be made - and, of course, this is also the very first one sold.
