The Ferrari Testarossa is a 12-cylinder mid-engine sports car manufactured by Ferrari, which went into production in 1984 as the successor to the Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer. The Testarossa is a two-door coupe with a fixed roof that premiered at the 1984 Paris Auto Show. All versions of the Testarossa had the power fed through the wheels from a rear-mounted, five-speed manual transmission. The Rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout (engine between the axles but behind the cabin) keeps the centre of gravity in the middle of the car, which increases stability and improves the cars cornering ability, and thus results in a standing weight distribution of 40% front: 60% rear. The Testarossa name, which means red head in Italian, comes from the red-painted cam covers on the flat-12 engine. The double entendre with a red-headed woman was intentional - Ferrari and Pininfarina regularly use descriptive terms related to a females body when describing the style of their automobiles. MotoeXotica is proud to offer this exquisite, 1985 Ferrari Testarossa that we purchased out of a prominent automotive collection out of Florida. Just like any other piece of fine Italian art, this Testarossa has withstood the test of time and looks just as incredible as the day it hit the showroom floor.

Originally, the Testarossa came with black carpeted floors and the previous owner upgraded the carpets to the beautiful red carpet with the black dancing horse on each floorboard, which really puts the cherry on top.

Lubricated with a dry sump system, this 301 cubic inch engine can turn out up to 390 horsepower and 361 pounds of torque!
