Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borranis, 185P16 Michelin X blackwall tires. Restored like new in attractive colors. Drivers seat cushion stretched, very tidy underhood. Excellent bodywork and panel fits. Originally built as one of four 250 GTs bodied by Pinin Farina and delivered to a member of the Agnelli family, Emmanuele Nasi. Restored from a pretty nasty relic by David Carte. Won its class at Pebble Beach and the FCA annual meet in 1992 and the GT Ferrari Cup at Cavallino in 1993. Ferrari Classiche certified, although possibly with a long ago restamped block. A Platinum Award winner and Most Elegant Ferrari at Cavallino this year. Pretty coachwork.

Market commentary

Pretty coachwork hardly credits the good looks of this body with its haunchy rear fenders, diminutive fins, plain front fender flanks and subtle black roof. It is far more attractive than its contemporaries from Boano and as its recent show history indicates is essentially perfect. A million four is a lot of money, but not too much for such a classic Ferrari in todays market, a particularly rare and distinctive car among its contemporaries.
