The 1985 Ferrari 400i is a paragon of refinement, luxury and power, and bears the design of the famous house of Pininfarina. As the successor to the 365 GT4 2+2, the 400i combines typical Italian craftsmanship with the elegance of a gran turismo. Pininfarina, responsible for the design, gave the car an understated but imposing appearance, with sleek lines and stately proportions that perfectly match the character of this Ferrari. The 400i was intended for the wealthy driver who wanted to combine his passion for speed with comfort and space, and that is exactly what this model excels in.
Under the long bonnet lies a 4.8-litre V12 engine, good for 310 hp, which propels the car smoothly and powerfully. The engine was coupled to an automatic transmission, which was a rarity for Ferraris at the time, but was intended to increase the ease of driving and a relaxed driving experience. The result is a luxury sports car that excels both on long motorway journeys and in everyday traffic. The interior, finished with the finest materials, offers space for four people and shows that Ferrari in the 1980s was not only focused on pure performance, but also on driving comfort and versatility.
This particular example comes from a private collection and is in running condition, which means that the car is ready to let its V12 sing again on the open road. The extensive documentation that comes with the car gives a good picture of the history and maintenance of this 400i. In addition, the car comes with an original jack set, a detail that further emphasizes the authenticity of this model.
The Ferrari 400i is a model that was far ahead of its time, with a design that still impresses today. It is a car that is less well-known than Ferrari's sporty two-seaters, but that is precisely why it has a unique charm. The Pininfarina design, the V12 power source and the combination of sportiness and luxury make the 400i a special appearance that is more than worth collecting.
To get a good impression of the car, we advise you to come to one of the viewing days.
