1968 Ferrari 365 GT 2+2

Description

Those in attendance at the 1967 Paris Motor Show witnessed the unveiling of the most opulent Ferrari grand tourer built to date – the 365 GT 2+2. Resplendent in Pininfarina coachwork blending influences from the 500 Superfast and the 330 GTC, the new 365 GT 2+2 was both longer and wider than its predecessor, with its sheer size earning it the nickname “Queen Mary” among English Ferrari fans. Housed under the softly sloping hood was a 4.4-liter, 320-horsepower version of the seasoned Colombo V12 working in conjunction with a new hydro-pneumatic self-leveling rear suspension system to guarantee a supremely comfortable driving experience. Luxury met functionality in the cabin, where standard power steering and electric windows as well as optional air conditioning and an abundance of opulent wood and leather embellishments created an ambiance of refined grandeur. Chassis number 11699, one of only 800 365 GT 2+2s produced over a five-year period, offers an opportunity for a new owner to experience its timeless blend of vintage style, performance, and comfort on many more long-distance journeys.
