Want to live like a Microsoft mogul? For $41,100, you can be well on your way.....sort of. According to MyRide.com's Celebrity Car Parade, Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, is selling his 1995 Ferrari 456 GT on eBay.

The Allen-owned land rocket is a an absolute peach of a ride. It is Silverstone green, a unique color that looks blue and has a hint of green when hit by the sun. The interior is supple tan leather top to bottom and features a lightning fast manual six speed transmission. It has a top speed of 186 mph and reaches 60 mph in 5.1 seconds. At press time, the bidding was up to $41,100.

Now that the boring technical aspect of the car's description is out the way, we can get down to what really matters. This car was driven by frickin' Paul Allen. If you are even remotely interested in utilizing a car as a status symbol, there is no ignoring this particular automobile. The opportunity to live the mogul life may never present itself. The chance to drive like a mogul, however, is a just a mouse click away.
