Sammy Hagar and Barrett-Jackson Statement
January 24, 2024 by Barrett-JacksonUpon the final inspection of Sammy Hagar's 2015 LaFerrari, which was expected to roll across the auction block at Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale Auction on Saturday, January 27, it was determined that the car's original high voltage battery was nearing the end of its anticipated 8-year lifespan. The decision to hold the car back to properly replace the high voltage battery with a new replacement directly from Ferrari was made in the interest of delivering the one-of-a-kind vehicle in pristine condition. 'This LaFerrari is a true work of art and a totally explosive driving experience,' said Sammy Hagar. 'We wanted to make sure its next owner had a truly immaculate supercar so we are moving it to the October auction.' 'Having the brand-new factory replacement battery installed was the right decision for all involved,' added Craig Jackson, Barrett-Jackson chairman and CEO. 'We are very excited about the announcement of our Scottsdale Fall Auction, and to have Sammy's LaFerrari as the new event's first consignment is a fantastic start to what will surely be an epic Barrett-Jackson experience.' The LaFerrari will now cross the auction block in October as the centerpiece of Barrett-Jackson's recently announced Fall Auction in Scottsdale, October 10-13. Guests attending Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale this week will be able to view Hagar's LaFerrari, which will be on display throughout the event at Sammy's Beach Bar in the South Showcase at Barrett-Jackson.
