I paid nothing on my 2021 Porsche Macan GTS for the rear camera, but I confess I paid $4,650 extra for deviating stitching in the interior. And you are correct: they have to stitch it anyway.

The 250GT TdF was succeeded by the 250GT SWB Berlinetta, built from 1960 to 1963; 168 built.

Priced at about $12,600 or $13,600 (sources vary) in the early 1960s.

Price two years ago, $10 million -- given the competition among the ultra-wealthy for toys, I wouldn't be surprised if it's up to $15 million now.

All these 250GTs of the 1950-60s are now worth millions.

The open version of the Berlinettas was the California spider, built in much smaller numbers than the coupes. There were both long wheelbase (2600mm) models corresponding to the TdF (50 built) and short wheelbase (2400mm) models corresponding to the SWB (56 built). The LWB models had drum brakes, while the SWB versions adopted discs. Other than the competition-oriented 250GTO, the California SWB spider is probably the most valuable Ferrari of all. We are talking lottery money here, or maybe two lotteries.

Note that any of our BMWs would blow the doors off these cars today but that's not the point, is it? Such beauty!

The SWB model was priced at about $16,000 in the early 1960s.
