Hagerty expert commentary
Our staff has reviewed this vehicle. Here are our notes.
Equipment
Chrome spoke Borrani RW 3264 wire wheels, Pirelli Cinturato radials, turn signals, fog lights, multiband radio, dual rear speakers.
Condition
One of six short wheelbase 410 Superamericas built, special ordered for the Shah of Iran and his wife, Princess Soraya. Excellent paint, chrome and interior. Underbody and engine restored like new. Excellent door, hood and trunk fits with tiny, tight, even gaps. Sharp, crisp engine compartment. Restored like new in 2002 with better cosmetics and fastidious, meticulous attention to detail. A multiple winner and still in nearly miraculous condition.
Market
In the current Pantheon of Ferrari values this rare, special, beautifully restored and meticulously perserved 410 Superamerica occupies an important position, although a good argument could be made that it is faster, more rare and more exclusive than its $5 million price indicates. The new owner can take pride and pleasure in its ownership, as well as its value.
