If you have ever wanted to own a piece of automotive history that hits with the sheer force of a heavyweight champion, RM Sotheby's has the perfect—and incredibly expensive—auction lot lined up for you this August.Crossing the block at the highly anticipated Monterey 2026 sale is a pristine 1995 Ferrari F50. But this isn't just any standard-issue Maranello hypercar. Chassis number 104220 was originally purchased brand new by none other than boxing legend "Iron" Mike Tyson.Built to celebrate the Italian automaker's 50th anniversary, the F50's engineering brief was simple in concept but brutal in execution: bolt a license plate onto a Formula 1 car.AdvertisementAdvertisementFerrari engineers took the naturally aspirated 4.7-liter V-12 engine directly from their 1992 grand prix program (an engine that also powered the legendary 333 SP endurance racer) and dropped it into a lightweight, carbon-fiber tub. Unlike most road cars, the F50's drivetrain is fully structural and load-bearing, making it one of the most raw, visceral, and uncompromised driving experiences ever to leave the factory.Only 349 examples of the F50 were ever produced—a deliberately scarce run designed to protect its exclusivity—and only 55 of those were built to US-market specifications.Credit: Robin Adams @2026 Courtesy of RM Sotheby'sThe Heavyweight ProvenanceThis specific US-spec model, the 73rd to roll off the assembly line, was completed in early 1996. Finished in the iconic Rosso Corsa paint over a black interior with red seat inserts, it was delivered to Beverly Hills Sports Car. Shortly after reclaiming his heavyweight titles in 1996, Mike Tyson scooped up the F50 as his first private owner, adding the open-top hypercar to his legendary fleet of exotic vehicles.AdvertisementAdvertisementOver the last three decades, Chassis 104220 has passed through the hands of several high-profile collectors, including a Seattle tech executive, but it has been incredibly well preserved. Today, the car shows just 6,196 miles on the odometer and recently underwent a massive service at Ferrari of Newport Beach to ensure it is in perfect mechanical condition.Credit: Robin Adams @2026 Courtesy of RM Sotheby'sAs part of Ferrari's illustrious "Big Six" hypercar lineage, finding an F50 for sale is always a massive event in the collector car world. Finding one with celebrity provenance is even rarer.When this lot crosses the block at Monterey, RM Sotheby's estimates it will fetch a staggering $7,000,000 to $9,000,000. For the winning bidder, the massive price tag secures more than just the car; the lot comes complete with the factory removable hardtop, a three-piece fitted F50 luggage set, factory tools, and the ultimate conversation starter—a pair of boxing gloves signed by Iron Mike himself.
