Here are the most sought-after classic cars by Italians online

Subito.it remains one of the go-to platforms for connecting enthusiasts in pursuit of their dream car. Today, the site hosts hundreds of listings for historic vehicles—from 1930s models right through to the 1980s—with a combined value topping €20 million.

Among the front-runners is the legendary 1963 Jaguar E-Type Spyder, immortalized in Italy by the comic duo Diabolik and Eva Kant. It’s also made cameo appearances in Austin Powers, The Avengers and Cars 2, and shows up in music videos such as Foo Fighters’ “Long Road to Ruin” and Tiromancino’s “Amore Impossibile.”

Equally iconic is the 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider—made famous by Federico Fellini in La Dolce Vita, later seen in Gone in 60 Seconds with Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie, and featured in Eros Ramazzotti & Anastacia’s “I Belong to You” video.

Subito also offers the exquisite 1955 Lancia Aurelia B24 S Spider America, hailed by historians as one of the most beautiful cars ever built. Priced at around €1.1 million, it’s starred in Dino Risi’s Il Sorpasso, The Talented Mr. Ripley and even Pixar’s The Incredibles.

Mercedes, Maserati and Lamborghini classics

Other standout marques on Subito include the Mercedes SL250 W113 “Pagoda,” the rare Lamborghini Urraco P300 (only 205 made worldwide), the Maserati Indy 4.2 and the Fiat Dino. You’ll also find hand-built and official replicas—like the Alfa Romeo 158 GP Fangio drove in F1, Superformance Shelby Cobra recreations and the iconic Ford GT40.

Yet the crown for value and rarity goes to a modern legend: the 2013 Ferrari LaFerrari. As the direct heir to the Enzo and limited to 499 units (all sold out before its debut), one example is listed at €2.88 million—making it the priciest car on Subito.
