Techno group Daft Punk's Ferrari 412 being auctioned for Japan fundraiser
Tue, 05 Apr 2011
Here's a car that will appeal to Ferrari fans and techno fans--the 1987 Ferrari 412 shown at the start of the 2007 movie Daft Punk's Electroma.
The Ferrari is one of several musician-related items being auctioned off by EMI Group as a fundraiser for disaster-relief efforts in Japan.
The car is in mint condition, still wears the HUMAN license plate as seen in the movie, and it has been signed by Daft Punk members Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter.
The auction takes place on eBay, with bidding for some items opening on April 5. Bidding for the Ferrari 412 runs April 11-21.
EMI Group says it will match all winning bids up to a total of $1.4 million (1 million euros).
