Introduced the night before the opening of the 1984 Paris Motor Show at the famed Lido nightclub on the Champs Elysees, Ferrari’s dramatic Testarossa took the world by storm. Designed to replace the Berlinetta Boxer, Pininfarina’s designers took Ferrari’s mid-engine V-12 platform in an entirely different styling directly from previous Ferraris. Angular and aggressive, the Testarossa’s bodywork was a dramatic departure from the more curvaceous 512 BB and improved on the basic platform of its predecessor. As the successor to the flagship Berlinetta Boxer, the mid-engined 12-cylinder model featured added horsepower, with 48 valves for better breathing and an improved clutch to help deliver power to the rear wheels.

The 4.9-liter, DOHC flat twelve-cylinder coupe registered a top speed of 180-mph. Its flat-12 design features two banks of six horizontally-opposed cylinders, 48 valves and dry-sump oil system. Bosch's latest K-Jetronic fuel-injection improved power and drivability; with 390 horsepower available, the Testarossa was capable of sprinting to 60-mph in 5.4-seconds. The Ferrari has a five-speed manual gearbox in a rear-mounted transaxle, four-wheel independent suspension with unequal-length A-arms, coil springs and anti-roll bars and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes. The luxurious interior is finished with tan leather, matching carpets, complete instrumentation and the odometer is showing a less than 25,000 miles. Also included with the car are the Ferrari manuals. Having recently been detailed and receiving a major engine-out service, this spectacular Testarossa is ready for it's next owner and the open road.
