ROME – A year has already passed since that cursed November 25, 2020, when suddenly the world lost the greatest footballer of all time. But in addition to loving football with all his strength, Diego Armando Maradona also had a passion for beautiful cars. How can we forget the Black Ferrari that the then President of Napoli Corrado Ferlaino donated to the Pibe de Oro?
Well now those cars – two BMWs and one Hyundai – will be auctioned in Argentina and their proceeds will go to his five children Dieguito, Giannina, Dalma, Jana and Diego Jr.
In addition to the Hyundai, a gray Van H-1 from 2015, it will be above all the two BMWs that will attract the curiosity of collectors. The first is a 750i Sedan from 2018, very rare because it is one of 7 examples in Argentina. Its starting price will be $ 225,000, but we’ll see how many hammer blows it will take to close the purchase.
The second is a blue-colored M4 coupe from 2017 with only 5,900 km on the odometer. Belonging to the Argentine champion when he worked as a coach in the United Arab Emirates, the car comes with the mighty 431 hp 3.0 straight-six combined with the 7-speed DKG dual-clutch automatic transmission. The interiors with roll-up seats in black leather and the carbon roof are inevitable, while the blue flashing lights installed on the front, inside the grille, are among the on-board devilry. Unique detail, which will make the difference at the time of sale, is the signature of Maradona on the windshield of the car. The starting price was set at $ 165,000, but here too it is expected that it will rise a lot.
The auction will be organized by Adrian Mercado in Argentina starting next December 19th.
