Of course, an interesting car, not only because of the apparent contrast between twelve-cylinder and notchback sedan, the latter held amazingly simple by Pininfarina. Only at a second glance attract attention the nearly circumferential bead, the large front and rear overhangs, the typical rim (with central lock) and the four exhaust pipes.

At that time, by no means a special offer ...

The wheels are with 215 mm fairly broad for that time and the similarity of the round lights attracting attention only when operating the pop-up headlights. May be because of the relative simplicity it is considered the cheapest Ferrari V12 as a classic car, but please be careful, the mere purchase price often later reveals as the smallest number.


Much more unerring one can say the typical red of the other Ferraris does not become it, it is usually to find in more muted colors. Nevertheless, it's a V12 under the hood, arranged far back, may be well planned with the fully automatic transmission (for the next series). Accordingly, there is no open shifting gate for the particularly short shift lever with a round knob.


At the interior, there is a discrepancy between appearance and driving comfort. The best one stays with the engine idling. Who of such a 90,000 DM vehicle with magnificent instrumentation and leather interiorexpects an appropriate suspension, noise and, for example, smooth operation of the clutch and compares with our present cars, will come into a certain disillusionment, to say nothing about fuel and inspection costs. 08/16
