Artcurial's Ferrari Agent Fritz Neuser Collection Auction Totals €5M, 100% Sold
The Facts
Artcurial auctioned the collection of Ferrari agent Fritz Neuser in Paris on March 15, 2026, achieving a total of €5 million with a 100% sell-through rate. All 30 vehicles and 301 Automobilia lots found buyers, led by auctioneer Anne-Claire Mandine and with presentations by Artcurial Motorcars President Matthieu Lamoure and Vice-President Pierre Novikoff. The top lot, a 1970 Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona in Verde Medio, sold for €602,000 after a fierce bidding war. Other notable results included a 1975 Ferrari 365 GT4 BB at €367,220, a 2006 Ferrari 575 Superamerica at €355,180, and a 1988 De Tomaso Pantera GT5S at €198,660. Among Automobilia, a Ferrari F40 engine cover fetched €68,848, a table built around a Testarossa engine sold for €41,044, and a Ferrari Colnago C35 racing bike reached €21,184.
The Signal
The auction's strong performance underscores sustained collector appetite for single-owner, passion-driven collections with a clear provenance, particularly those tied to marque insiders like Neuser. The 100% sell-through and premium prices for both vehicles and memorabilia signal that Ferrari-related material remains a blue-chip asset class, with rare variants and factory-original condition commanding significant premiums. The results also highlight growing interest in 1970s and 1980s Italian sports cars, as well as branded lifestyle objects, suggesting collectors are increasingly viewing automotive memorabilia as a complementary investment to the cars themselves.
