A Ferrari 365 GT4 BB, owned by Sir Elton John, is up for sale for $400,000. The Ferrari was originally bought by the legendary singer in 1974 and is one of 58 right-hand drive versions ever made. The Italian supercar was the fastest and most expensive car in the world at the time of purchase, is powered by a 12-cylinder, 4.4-liter engine with a top speed of about 180mph, produces 360 break horsepower, and has only driven 9,700 miles.
