1986 | Ferrari Testarossa 'Monospecchio'
Overview
Under the direction of Pininfarina designer Leonardo Fioravanti, Ferrari's Testarossa undertook a bold departure from the manufacture’s traditional design language. Beginning in 1984, the model superseded the Berlinetta Boxer, as a more user-friendly supercar updated with cutting-edge technology and flamboyant styling. The Testarossa's wide and low stance was complemented by its distinctive side strakes, which doubled as cooling ducts for the rear-mounted radiators, a necessity due to the car's powerful flat-12 engine. An undisputed icon of the 1980s, the Testarossa’s staying power informed future eras of Ferrari design for decades to come.

Flaunting 390hp 4.9L displacement, 5-speed manual shifting enabled 60 mph acceleration in just over 5 seconds—on to a top speed nearing 180 mph. Advanced double wishbone suspension featured four-corner coil springs ensuring a fine balance of precise handling and comfortable compliance. The car’s spacious cabin touted luxurious interior appointments from Connolly leather seating to a sculptural dashboard & center console. Refinement, modernity, and performance at a high bar won over buyers searching for a truly special coupe at the heights of Italian craftsmanship.

Underneath, 16" five-spoke alloy wheels present clad in near-new Pirelli P-Zero tires.
