Few automobiles have transcended the automotive world quite like the Ferrari Testarossa. Introduced for 1984 as the successor to the Berlinetta Boxer, the Testarossa quickly became one of Ferraris defining creations. Penned by Pininfarina, its dramatic side strakes, wide rear track, and unmistakable wedge-shaped profile made it instantly recognizable from every angle. The Testarossa evolved into a genuine cultural phenomenon. It adorned bedroom walls around the globe as the ultimate poster car, starred in blockbuster films and television shows, appeared in countless video games, and became the preferred transportation of movie stars, rock legends, and professional athletes eager to showcase success. For an entire generation, the Testarossa defined what an exotic supercar should look and feel like.

The Nero-trimmed cabin features seats that were rebolstered under previous ownership, a CD stereo, motorized seat belts, factory air-conditioning, power windows, and odometer that shows under 28,000 miles from new. At its heart lies a 4.9-litre flat-12 engine that is factory rated at 380 horsepower. Backed by a gated five-speed manual transaxle and Tubi-style exhaust, its every bit as exhilarating to drive as it sounds.
