That particular 64 GTO that was crashed in the above video belongs to a UK gazillionaire by the name of Anthony Bamford. As I recall, he's owned it since the late 1960s and it has probably covered more track miles, just for fun, under his ownership than it ever did when it was a frontline race car.
One of the best Ferrari collections in the world was owned for many years by a guy by the name of Pierre Bardinon. He built his own race track on his estate in France, so he could run any of his cars whenever he felt like it.
I've personally watched races at Laguna Seca where the total value of the cars in a particular race probably approached a quarter of $1 billion. They used to have a featured marque every year and when that was Ferrari, the big dogs in the collecting world came out in droves.
