The Superfast was Ferrari's flagship tourer that took off from where the and Super America series ended. It was Ferrari's ideal cruiser with a large-displacement V12 and ample cabin space.
Twice as expensive as the more sporting GTB, these cars were seldom ordered and only made two per month by Pininfarina. It benefited from a variety of upgrades introduced into the series that were tried and tested in the competition models. Upgrades included a long nose bodywork, a torque tube driveline and an engine capable of bhp with a dry sump lubrication system.
Only ten Ferrari s officially came from the Ferrari factory in spyder configuration 25 were planned. Americans at the time wanted a convertible offering the best aspects of both cars. In Ferrari reverted from their twin-headlight layout back to the traditional setup and fitted a larger 4. The Series II version featured a five-speed gearbox instead of the overdrive four-speed of the prior year.
Other changes included the switch back to a dual-light instead of quad-light front, alloy wheels, and the addition of optional air conditioning and power steering. It also benefited from disc brakes and independent suspension. It was intended as a grand tourer that delivered quiet performance. The CC V was a development of the engine used in the Superamerica, and joined to the five-speed gearbox, provided flexible power across a wider range. Only examples were made before the model was upgraded with a 4.
Shortly after the last Superfast was made, the California was announced as the model's successor. It was the continuation of a series of limited production cars which included the and Superamercas. To keep costs down, but exclusivity high, the California was only offered to select VIP clients of Ferrari. The long and low California Spyder was basically a reworked GT chassis featuring a Pininfarina body. The press nicknamed it the Daytona much to the disdain of Enzo. Its mph top speed became a supercar benchmark.
Under the hood was a 4. This tremendous speed was emphasized in the first ever Cannonball run when Brock Yates and Dan Gurney piloted their Daytona during the race.
In Ferrari updated GTC with a 4. The larger engine increased low end torque and offered 20 additional horsepower. They are all easily identified from the GTC by their engine vents at the trailing end of the hood. The fully-independent suspension features unequal A-arms, coil springs, and shocks.
The strong GTC got better. The engine was the same size as the engine, so slipping it in the GTS was easy. Ferrari had Pininfarina design the Daytona Spider and limited production to just cars. At the time, the Daytona was known as the top dog. Scaglietti was careful in transforming the into a Spider. It required several modifications that replaced the Coupes fiberglass inner fenders and rear bulkhead with steel counterparts.
There is added structural rigidity to help it stay stiff. The referenced the displacement of a single cylinder while the GTC meant it was a Grand Touring road car in Coupe 2 door hardtop configuration and the 4 was camshaft cylinder heads. Most of the mechanicals, including the 4. The Automatic was the first Ferrari to have an automatic transmission. The carburetors on the were replaced with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection in As in the smaller i, power was down to hp, but emissions were improved, complying with U.
Top speed was mph. Initially differences between the and i were limited to the fuel injected engine. At the end of , the i was updated with new camshaft profiles and exhaust headers. In further improvements were made, with the launch of the Ferrari The engine was bored 1 mm.
Both the manual and automatic transmissions were retained, but exterior badging no longer denoted the transmission type fitted. Bosch ABS was offered, a first for Ferrari. The body was altered, with a raised rear deck granting more luggage space. Ferrari had mid-engine layouts in their racing cars, but to date all of its road cars were front-engined V12s.
The legend goes that Enzo Ferrari was concerned that his buyers did not have the skills to manage a mid-engined sports car. Designers presented Enzo with sketches of a small, sexy mid-engine sports car and Enzo relented and agreed to build the car, but only if it had a less-powerful engine.
Enzo chose a V-6 engine design that his son Alfredo Dino, for short had helped develop for racing with lead engineer Vittorio Jano.
The "Dino" name was a tribute from Enzo to his late son, who had died in from effects of muscular dystrophy. Three series of the Dino GT were built, with differences in wheels, windshield wiper coverage, and engine ventilation. The Dino brand was established to create a more accessible Ferrari, but it turned out to be remarkable in its own right.
Light, fun, sexy and great handling, we wish they kept it going. Just one year after the release, it was replaced with the revised GT. The new was a heavier car, thanks to the inclusion of Fiat's cast-iron V6, which increased the capacity to cc.
Compared to the Ferrari V6, the Fiat powerplant had been cast in iron rather than aluminum alloy. Also changed to steel was the bodywork. Over examples were produced over a two year period. Both these cars copied the idea from the Surrey-Top Triumph TR4 which was the first to use such a panel. The GT4 was produced from to April From onwards the cars were sold as Ferrari badged. In an effort to improve sales until the official re-badging, Ferrari sent out factory update on July 1, with technical and cosmetic revisions.
The engine was de-bored to Some of these revisions were implemented piecemeal by dealers. Some made all the revisions while some just made a few.
There were two series, earlier and later cars differentiated by number of distributors. Power output hp at rpm for a top speed of mph. Smaller Weber 34 DCNF carburetors, a lower final drive ratio and skinnier tires completed the technical changes for the Chrome rather than black accents outside and the lack of fog lights were external visual indicators of the smaller-engined GT4. It was rebadged a Ferrari in like the GT4.
Designed by Leonardo Fioravanti of Pininfarina, the Berlinetta Boxer was the first of the Ferrari mid-engine road cars that changed the supercar market. Race cars were already using a mid-engined layout but it was the Lamborghini Miura that made Ferrari accelerate their plans for a mid-engined supercar.
The Berlinetta Boxer platform was updated in with the BB. The BB has refinements to the drivetrain, including dry-sump lubrication, an increased compression ratio of In , further refinements were made for the last series, the BBi, which included Bosch K-Jetronic fuel-injection with more low-end torque for better tractability and a dual-plate clutch for better city driving.
Fuel injection also made it easier for federalizers to calibrate the ever-tightening emissions standards. Exterior differences included metric wheels and Michelin TRX tires along with changes to the front grille running lights.
The Boxer Berlinetta marked a big change for Ferrari because the company moved a horizontally opposed engine layout for its new flagship car thus the Berlinetta Boxer name. The car was first shown at the Turin Motor Show and production began in Only examples of the GT4 BB were made until it was replaced outright with the in The rest of the car was improved and in detail the had many new changes. A dry sump lubrication system was also included.
Compared to the GT4 BB, the body was wider at the rear for larger tires a revised suspension. The fuel injection was a necessity to pass US emissions regulations. This modernized the car, as it produced less emissions and was thought to be more reliable and driveable once setup correctly. The i is a noticeable step up from the The engine was both more efficient and cleaner. It was down on power though.
It was shown at the Paris Motor Show and again in London that year as an additional model to the Dino GT4 and as the replacement for the aging 2-seater Dino This car featured sweeping curves, two seats and a resemblance to the B.
Highlighting the GTB was a fiberglass, or vetroresina, body. Except for the aluminum hood, the entirety of the body was fiberglass and was manufactured by Scaglietti. It was the first time a composite body was sold on a production Ferrari. It allowed the to weigh only 1, kg dry. Unfortunately, fiberglass had a downmarket feel particularly when it came to paint and put off some customers.
The steel bodied came in It was also mounted lower in the chassis. European versions produced bhp at rpm. In the United Stated, power was a lower bhp at 6, rpm. It was this car which was made famous in Magnum, P.
Visually it was very similar to its GTB apart from the black finished solid removable glass-fibre roof panel, and the satin black finished hinged opening louvre panels. The chassis was reinforced to compensate for the lack of a full roof rigidity. The Ferrari GTB was a 2 liter engine. Aimed at the domestic Italian market. The car was the same Pininfarina design with its wedge profile and egg-crate aluminum radiator grille.
The difference was a smaller bore size of This is one rare and very slow car. S models. The fuel injection was coupled to a Marelli MED A Digiplex electronic ignition, incorporating a coil, distributor, and ignition module for each bank of cylinders. Inside, the clock and oil temperature gauge were moved to the centre console. There were also a new black steering wheel with three spokes, and seats of a different pattern. In the two-litre was succeeded by a turbocharged and fuel injected version, the GTS Turbo.
It was the first ever turbocharged road-going Ferrari. Like the original , this model was intended for the Italian domestic market. Both outside and inside the Turbo was almost identical to the contemporary Quattrovalvole. In the two-litre was succeeded by a turbocharged and fuel injected version. A GTS version was introduced a year later, in The Turbo was almost identical to the Quattrovalvole and could be recognized by NACA ducts in front of the rear wheel well openings and "turbo" badging.
The new model could be recognized by the addition of a slim louvered panel in the front, a redesigned radiator grille, and rectangular in place of round side repeaters. The updated GTS QV and GTB QV models could be recognized by the addition of a slim louvered panel in the front lid to aid radiator exhaust air exit, power operated mirrors carrying a small enamel Ferrari badge, a redesigned radiator grille, and rectangular side repeaters. Many people have looked upon the F50 project as somewhat of a failure.
I can see where they are coming from; the F50 didn't receive a race program and never set any precedents in performance. It is this attitude that is usually held by people how have yet to experience the F50 in person, on track or, better yet, behind the wheel.
It was pure race-spec from top to bottom. We are huge fans of the s GTS. As far as affordable two seat V8 Ferraris go it made our best Ferraris for first time owners list. The was a solid upgrade to the It had better performance, that same gorgeous Pininfarina design, modern comforts and is pretty reasonable to maintain. The was the successor to the Ferrari Rather than a lot of wholesale changes, this was a case of small improvements that made a big difference overall.
In the mids, the elegant shape of the open-topped GTS was further softened and rounded to become — once a bhp 3. The curvier body not only updated the looks, it also improved the aerodynamics. Inside the new drop-top, the now outdated s seats and trim and switchgear were also thoroughly refreshed. More than 6, cars were sold, five times as many as the GTB. The turbo was evolved from the Turbo. Welcome to the bargain Ferrari.
Practical, sound great and with loads of room for the kids, the Mondial is the everyday Ferrari. It is the also the car that gets the most shade from Ferrari fans, often called the worst Ferrari ever. The Mondial was designed to combine the features of a sports car with a comfortable GT. It was built alongside the ranges as the more practical Ferrari. The Mondial was a practical and usable Ferrari, and while the initial spec was underwhelming, Ferrari did make it progressively lighter and more performance focused with each iteration.
The chassis was also shared with previous models, but was stretched by 3. The suspension used unequal-length double wishbones and Koni dampers all around. The Mondial 8 was powered by an upgraded version of the small-displacement V-8 Ferrari created in the early From a performance perspective the Mondial was weak. It was the first affordable Ferrari but it just wasn't that exciting. The Quattrovalvole or QV introduced a new four-valve head. Appearance was largely as per the Mondial 8, although with red engine heads and prominent "Quattrovalvole" script at the rear.
A worthy update for the Mondial. A new Cabriolet convertible model was added for The intro of the Cabriolet saw popularity rise.
