- 1990 Alfa Romeo Spider
Introduced in 1990, the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0i (4th generation) continues the legacy of the iconic Spider roadster. It is a charming and agile sports car that combines timeless design elements, clean lines and open-air driving pleasure. The 1990 versions are less prone to corrosion and the power steering, which became standard, as well as the electric windows provide comfort that can be appreciated by all. Please welcome this beautiful exemplar of the Alfa Romeo Spider 4th generation, painted in metallic silver grey with a beige interior. Of Italian origin, the roadster was registered for the first time in Belgium in 2003 with only 38,000 km on the odometer. It was purchased by its last owner in February 2019 and registered as an ancestor, being used very occasionally. The black soft top, which is known to be easy and quick to handle, is here complemented by an optional hard-top in assorted grey that allows the Spider to be used in winter. The charismatic 2.0L inline-four engine produces 126 hp and offers sufficient performance for a cruising convertible. Thanks to its low mileage, this Alfa Romeo Spider is in very good condition. It comes with its original service book. A major maintenance has just been carried out on the vehicle. The upholstery and carpeting were replaced in 2024… In order words, the Spider has found a new lease of life and is ready to hit the road again. So, if you are one of the many enthusiasts who appreciate its timeless look, give us a call and come to see it in real.

- 1980-bmw-m5
Among the rarest models BMW has ever built, and the first to be created entirely under the purview of its elite M division, the M1 is a hand-built homologation special developed in the late 1970s as the German automaker sought to compete at higher levels of motorsports. Intent on using a mid-engine layout, BMW initially contracted Lamborghini to develop the M1 chassis, and its tubular steel spaceframe is said to have been devised with input from noted Italian engineer Giampaolo Dallara. Lamborghini’s ensuing financial struggles delayed development and dissolved the partnership, but a group of disenfranchised engineers from the Italian automaker banded together and founded their own company to complete the work. The final product was impressive, featuring a rigid spaceframe and sophisticated, double-wishbone suspension with adjustable coil springs and Bilstein gas-filled dampers. Angular fiberglass bodywork by noted designer Giorgetto Giugiaro gave the M1 visual appeal commensurate with its performance potential. Initially completed by Karosserie Baur on 28 May 1980, this stunning Red-over-black M1 is presented today in stunningly preserved condition from over 45 years within the care of its original owner. According to the BMW M1 Register, M1 chassis 239 is the 173rd street car produced in the series, one of 71 cars finished in Red, and the first of only four M1 examples sold to Mexico. An accompanying German registration document shows that the consignor initially purchased the car from BMW in Munich on 23 July 1980. The manufacturer subsequently registered this car with the export plate “Z686-6571” and it was later dispatched to the consignor’s Mexico home via BMW Mexico-Bavaria Motors S.A. Since new, the consignor has added fewer than 7,000 kilometers (~4,350 miles) to this M1, and as such the car retains an astounding degree of well-preserved original finishes throughout. Despite the low mileage and careful use, the M1 and other cars in his stable were always maintained and regularly run to ensure they were in healthy mechanical condition. The car is accompanied by the original 1980 German registration document which notes its purchase by the consignor. It seems fair to say that this M1 is one of exceptionally few examples of this rare homologation special which remain in the ownership of their original buyers. Now 45 years onward from the model’s debut and still with exceptionally low mileage, this offering could possibly be an unrepeatable opportunity for the collector hunting a preserved, reference-grade M1. The ambitions of the production BMW M1 was not to be a refined GT but simply the most efficient sports car of its time. Soberness and functionalism have always been notable keywords within BMW, and the stunning M1 was no exception to the rule. It is, without a doubt, the ultimate driving machine. 1980 BMW M1 RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1961 Lotus Elite R
Records show that only two Lotus Elites were given the ‘R’ designation by the factory and sold as race cars from new. This is one of them – chassis number EB 1852 – and it was acquired as an unassembled kit by Derek Alderson in October 1961. A note in the history file suggests that it was supplied with the engine from the Lotus 11 that had been raced by works driver Alan Stacey. Alderson planned to run a two-car team in 1962 along with his friend Derek Bennett, a talented engineer who would later become the founder of Chevron. Bennett also bought an Elite and together they embarked on a busy season of British racing. Bennett’s ingenuity came in useful at one race when they discovered that the brake master cylinder on Alderson’s Elite was leaking. With no replacement to hand, Bennett wedged a lever-action oil can into the inside of the driver’s door. ‘He then commandeered the piping from the windscreen washers,’ wrote David Gordon in his history of Chevron, ‘jammed it over the oil can spout, and ran it to the master cylinder. Now all Alderson had to do to get round the corners was to remember to pump the oil can in the door with his thumb while he was going down the straights!’ In September 1962, they had a memorable outing at Aintree, as noted in Autosport: ‘The last race of the day was for Grand Touring cars and it was easily the best of all. A grand scrap went on between the Elites of DC Alderson, who led for four laps, BJ Smallthwaite, who took over and won by 0.4 of a second, and AD Bennett, who was always third. These three were out by themselves, finishing some 45 secs ahead of the field.’ The following week, they were at Oulton Park and again warranted a mention in Autosport: ‘From the flag it was the Elites of Derek Alderson, Brian Smallthwaite and Derek Bennett in that order, but a spin on lap two at Lodge relegated Smallthwaite to eighth position and, try as he did, he could do no better than third, some 6 secs down on Bennett, with Alderson a winner by 2 secs.’ At some point during the season, Bennett apparently borrowed Alderson’s Elite for a race at Brands Hatch and promptly crashed it. Story has it that Alderson, who couldn’t attend, only found out when he saw a photo of his damaged Lotus in the newspaper! It’s thought that Alderson raced the Elite into 1963 – and that Bennett took it to second place at Oulton Park on 6 April – before selling it that year to Andrew Ball. Between 1963 and 1967, it was registered for road use with the number 2309 VR, and in 1966 it passed to racer and dealer Brian Classick. Subsequent owners included Barry Sewell, Alan Brownlee and Michael Gue before the Elite was bought in 1976 by Gunter Turk. He later recalled that, by then, it was ‘a racer in international Appendix J trim’ and he took it to the Nurburgring to compete in the Oldtimer Grand Prix. Turk sold the Lotus in 1979 to Lindsay Owen-Jones, who later became the CEO and Chairman of cosmetics company L’Oréal. Owen-Jones was a fine driver who would go on race a McLaren F1 GTR in international events, and he retained the Elite until it passed to Michael Lavers in the late 1980s. More recent custodians of ‘1852’ have included Dire Straits frontman Mark Knopfler, who raced it at the Goodwood Revival, and David Conrad, who treated it to an engine rebuild, an $18,000 respray and a number of competition outings in the USA. In 2015, the Elite was bought by a British-based enthusiast. He raced it in the UK and at Spa over the next few years, and recent expenditure includes FIA-spec suspension and exhaust system from Tolman Engineering, a straight-cut, close-ratio gearbox from David Whitehurst Racing – plus the acquisition of a race-ready and FIA-compliant Coventry Climax FWE engine. Having been raced throughout its life, this Lotus Elite is offered for sale with an extensive history file, and is ready for its next owner to continue the journey that was started by Derek Alderson in 1961. MODEL HISTORY The Lotus Elite made its debut at the 1957 Earls Court Motor Show and immediately drew crowds thanks to its innovative construction. Working with a team that included Peter Kirwan-Taylor, Frank Costin, John Frayling and Ron Hickman, company founder Colin Chapman had come up with a remarkable design that was based around a glassfibre monocoque. The Elite was light, aerodynamic and rigid, but turning it into a production reality would be an expensive business. The first 250 monocoques were produced by Maximar in Sussex before the contract was switched to the Bristol Aircraft Company, and Chapman later stated that he lost about £100 on every Elite that he sold. Production lasted until 1963, by which time just over 1000 had been made. Predictably, however, it made a superb competition car. Powered by the 1216cc Coventry Climax FWE engine, it featured disc brakes all round and independent suspension via wishbones at the front and Chapman struts at the rear. An MG gearbox was standard fitment but there was also the option of a close-ratio ZF unit. Les Leston and Graham Warner often did battle in famous Elites that used the registration numbers DAD10 and LOV1 respectively, while Peter Lumsden took his car to class victory in the 1959 Le Mans 24 Hours. That was the first of a remarkable six consecutive class wins at La Sarthe for the Elite. Perhaps most significantly, it was while racing an early Elite belonging to Ian Scott-Watson that a young Scottish racer called Jim Clark really caught the attention of Colin Chapman. The two men enjoyed a fierce dice at the 1958 Boxing Day meeting at Brands Hatch and would go on to form one of motor racing’s most successful partnerships. 1961 Lotus Elite R The Classic Motor Hub If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
The Alfa, in a few words then, is a small car with a rev-happy DOHC engine that can carry two people from point A to point B over all types of roads quicker than most cars twice its size. It does this not with blinding speed but with a wonderful combination of roadholding, compact size and sheer willingness.' – Car & Driver on the Giulietta Sprint. With the introduction of the Bertone-styled Giulietta Sprint Coupé, Alfa Romeo established the 'small car, big performance' formula that would characterise the Milanese marque's finest offerings from then on. First of the Giuliettas, the Sprint debuted at the Turin Motor Show in April 1954 powered by a 1.3-litre, all-alloy version of Alfa's classic twin-cam four designed by one-time Ferrari engineer Giuseppe Busso. The Sprint Coupé was soon joined by Berlina and Spider versions, the latter styled by Pinin Farina and built on a slightly shorter wheelbase. Right from the start, the Giulietta Sprint Coupé was appreciated by drivers who recognised its potential for competition success. With its independent front suspension, very well-located live rear axle, and coil springs/hydraulic dampers all round, the unitary-construction Giulietta's chassis was superior to that of most sports cars. Only the handicaps of relatively low power and excess weight (64bhp/880kg) held it back, prompting Alfa Romeo to introduce a more powerful version: the Giulietta Sprint Veloce. For the Veloce engine, the inlet ports were enlarged and the single Solex carburettor replaced with two twin-choke Weber 40 DCO3 instruments, effectively providing each cylinder with its own carburettor. In addition, the valves were enlarged, the compression ratio increased (from 8:1 to 9:1), the camshafts changed, a more free-flowing exhaust system fitted, and the engine balanced, the result being an increase in maximum power for 64 to 89bhp at slightly higher revs. In actual fact, most engines exceeded this figure, with the best having around 99bhp on tap – 89 horsepower being in effect the minimum guaranteed. The inlet manifold and oil sump were made of magnesium. At the same time, the Giulietta Veloce's weight was significantly reduced. Bertone used thinner steel for the non-load-bearing body panels; insulation was removed; the doors, bonnet and boot lid made of aluminium; and the side and rear window made of Plexiglas. Aluminium was also used for items such as the bumpers, 'eyebrows', 'whiskers', and headlight rims. The side windows' heavy winding mechanisms were deleted and replaced with sliding windows with aluminium frames. The doors weighed only 7kg (with foam padded armrests) and could be ordered with nets for containing small items. There was no glove department cover, no sun visors, and no rear seat. The Veloce seats were thinner, albeit foam-padded, and mounted on a delicate tubular frame. As a result, the 770kg Veloce enjoyed a 110kg (15%) weight advantage over the standard Sprint Coupé, and that with a 65-litre fuel tank instead of the normal 53-litre tank (an 80-litre tank was available for endurance racing). With this greatly improved power-to-weight ratio, the Veloce would turn out to be a formidable competitor. The Giulietta Sprint Veloce debuted at the Turin Motor Show in April 1956, this being the first occasion that the 'Veloce' (fast) designation was used by Alfa Romeo. Advertised by its maker under the tag line 'Only the best is good enough', the Veloce competed two days later in the Coppa della Consume, securing a class win. There was more success the following week at the 23rd Mille Miglia; on this occasion the Giulietta Veloce's superiority proved overwhelming, examples filling the first six places in the 1,300cc class with a best overall position of 11th. Further class victories were achieved in the Nürburgring 1,000km, Coppa Dolimiti and Tour de France, with the Alpine Rally won outright. The following year, of the 43 cars entered in the Mille Miglia's 1,300cc category, 43 were Alfa Romeo Giuliettas. These early Giulietta Sprint Veloces, with Bertone body numbers commencing '77', are now commonly known as 'alleggerita' (lightened or lightweight) cars. They differ considerably from the 'normal' Sprint and were built in limited numbers. Chassis number AR1493 E 04229 originally corresponds to an Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce Alleggerita, manufactured on the 12th April 1957 and sold on the 14th May 1957 in Lucca, to Sig. Benito D'Ulivo of Milano who retained the car until 1974 when it was passed to its second owner in Milano a Sig. Alessandro Frova. Remaining in original condition Sig. Frova kept his Alleggerita until May 1983 when it was sold to a German gentleman. Herr. Dammler of Osnabrück, who kept the car until 2003 when it was purchased by one of the proprietors of the German classic car parts specialist OKP who commissioned Dutch Alfa Romeo Specialist Jan Steutel to carry out a full restoration and rebuild to historic racing FIA appendix K specification. This restoration commenced in 2003 and was completed in 2006. In 2010 OKP entered into a collaboration agreement with Facetti Motori the legendary family engineering firm established by racing driver and ex Autodelta engineer Carlo Facetti. As a result of this collaboration, in 2011 the original engine was rebuilt and prepared by Facetti to achieve 130bhp an increase of 40bhp on the ’standard’ Veloce motor. Mated to this is a four-speed gearbox with a longer first gear and shortened second, third and forth built by Oliver Vetter of H & O Vetter Garage in Switzerland and a fully overhauled 8:41 differential which has been used in just one race. In addition to this #04229 has an 80 litre aluminium Veloce fuel tank, racing clutch and external oil cooler. The result is a quick, period competition vehicle. Currently fitted with Alleggerita interior trim with a single race seat fitted and roll cage, it is track ready. Alternatively, we also have a correct pair of seat frames that could be fitted to return the interior to original specification. Externally the car has all the correct Alleggerita aluminium body panels - bonnet, doors and boot lid as well as trim in place - bumpers, window furniture, grill eyebrows and headlight rings. Presented in a very appealing condition throughout, this matching-numbers Giulietta Sprint Veloce represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the very rare, early lightweight models possessing known history. It is, of course, eligible for participation in many of the most prestigious historic motor sports events including the Mille Miglia. 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce Will Stone Historic Cars Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

Advertised by its maker under the tag line 'Only the best is good enough', the Veloce competed two days later in the Coppa della Consume, securing a class win. There was more success the following week at the 23rd Mille Miglia; on this occasion the Giulietta Veloce's superiority proved overwhelming, examples filling the first six places in the 1,300cc class with a best overall position of 11th. Further class victories were achieved in the Nürburgring 1,000km, Coppa Dolimiti and Tour de France, with the Alpine Rally won outright. The following year, of the 43 cars entered in the Mille Miglia's 1,300cc category, 43 were Alfa Romeo Giuliettas. These early Giulietta Sprint Veloces, with Bertone body numbers commencing '77', are now commonly known as 'alleggerita' (lightened or lightweight) cars. They differ considerably from the 'normal' Sprint and were built in limited numbers. Chassis number AR1493 E 04229 originally corresponds to an Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce Alleggerita, manufactured on the 12th April 1957 and sold on the 14th May 1957 in Lucca, to Sig. Benito D'Ulivo of Milano who retained the car until 1974 when it was passed to its second owner in Milano a Sig. Alessandro Frova. Remaining in original condition Sig. Frova kept his Alleggerita until May 1983 when it was sold to a German gentleman. Herr. Dammler of Osnabrück, who kept the car until 2003 when it was purchased by one of the proprietors of the German classic car parts specialist OKP who commissioned Dutch Alfa Romeo Specialist Jan Steutel to carry out a full restoration and rebuild to historic racing FIA appendix K specification. This restoration commenced in 2003 and was completed in 2006. In 2010 OKP entered into a collaboration agreement with Facetti Motori the legendary family engineering firm established by racing driver and ex Autodelta engineer Carlo Facetti. As a result of this collaboration, in 2011 the original engine was rebuilt and prepared by Facetti to achieve 130bhp an increase of 40bhp on the ’standard’ Veloce motor. Mated to this is a four-speed gearbox with a longer first gear and shortened second, third and forth built by Oliver Vetter of H & O Vetter Garage in Switzerland and a fully overhauled 8:41 differential which has been used in just one race. In addition to this #04229 has an 80 litre aluminium Veloce fuel tank, racing clutch and external oil cooler. The result is a quick, period competition vehicle. Currently fitted with Alleggerita interior trim with a single race seat fitted and roll cage, it is track ready. Alternatively, we also have a correct pair of seat frames that could be fitted to return the interior to original specification. Externally the car has all the correct Alleggerita aluminium body panels - bonnet, doors and boot lid as well as trim in place - bumpers, window furniture, grill eyebrows and headlight rings. Presented in a very appealing condition throughout, this matching-numbers Giulietta Sprint Veloce represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the very rare, early lightweight models possessing known history. It is, of course, eligible for participation in many of the most prestigious historic motor sports events including the Mille Miglia.

- 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica SWB
“Owning one should be the goal of every automotive enthusiast everywhere.” That’s how the famous American magazine Car & Driver summarised its in-depth review of the Ferrari 400 Superamerica back in 1963. Strong words indeed, but then this was no ordinary Prancing Horse. The 400 Superamerica followed the tried-and-tested Gran Turismo recipe – one which, as the austerity of the War faded, was becoming more and more sought-after. Ferrari’s flagship model, it employed the legendary Colombo V12 in large four-litre form, a short- or long-wheelbase chassis, overdrive, disc brakes at all four corners (a first for a Ferrari road car) and a bespoke coupé or cabriolet body styled in a manner of different ways by Pininfarina. “Owning one should be the goal of every automotive enthusiast everywhere.” That’s how the famous American magazine Car & Driver summarised the Ferrari 400 Superamerica Coach-built. We can’t emphasise enough how painstakingly built to the original owners’ exacting specifications these cars were. And said owners weren’t your average Ferrari customers – they were VIPs, loyal brand disciples, pop stars, captains of industry and even royals. Il Commendatore himself drove a 400 Superamerica. Need we say anymore? Ferrari 400 Superamerica production was split into two series. The first, produced from 1959–1962, comprised a mere 15 short-wheelbase (2,400mm) cars, which were bestowed with a stunning Aerodinamico closed-coupé body by Pininfarina. It’s a dramatic design befitting of the world’s greatest motor show stands, with swooping curves, tapered overhangs, lashings of chrome and eleven exquisitely aligned vents in each of the front wings. Chassis number 3559 SA Even in the rarefied realms of the Ferrari 400 Superamerica, there are certain combinations of specification which, today, significantly increase the desirability. The car we’re honoured to be offering – chassis number 3559 SA – is one such example. Crucially, this is one of only eight Ferrari 400 Superamericas Series Is ordered with covered headlamps – an option which, in our opinion, enhances the overall aesthetic harmony of the Aerodinamico coachwork. The exhaustive build process began at the dawn of 1962 and this Ferrari was not signed off until July, by which point chassis number 3559 SA was resplendent in Blu Sera Italver over a Blu Connolly interior. The car was delivered new to Luigi Chinetti’s Ferrari concessionaire on the East Coast of America. Chinetti in turn found this 400 Superamerica its first home with one C. O. Marshall Jr. in Ohio. Clearly fond of his flagship Ferrari, Marshall Jr. retained chassis 3559 SA for a decade, covering over 20,000 miles and even exhibiting it at the fifth Annual Ferrari Club of America meeting in 1968, where it won the Judges’ Choice award. The car remained in the United States under the stewardship of one further owner until 1989, at which point it was exported to Switzerland and acquired by Arnold and Walter Meier on the shores of Lake Zurich. The Meiers were true disciples of the Prancing Horse, religiously maintaining the 400 Superamerica and, with a view to preserving the factory authenticity, commissioning a comprehensive restoration in 1993 with Edi Wyss Engineering in Switzerland. The restoration complete, the Meiers transported the car back across the Atlantic, this time to the West Coast, and entered some of America’s greatest events, including the International Concours d’Elegance in Monterey and the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, where chassis 3559 SA contested the ‘Ferrari Grand Touring Coupés up to 1968’ class in 1994. “Of more importance was the Ferrari Classiche certification, which confirms this Superamerica’s matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox and differential.“ Two years later, in 1997, Werner Meier drove this 400 Superamerica to the Ferrari 50th-anniversary celebration in Rome/Modena – a pilgrimage which, quite rightly, earned him and his beloved car a photo in that year’s Ferrari Yearbook. The Meiers only parted with chassis 3559 SA in April of 2003, selling to a collector in Florida who exhibited the car at the XIV Cavallino Classic Concours in 2005. In 2011, the legendary American racing driver and racing school founder Skip Barber acquired this historically-significant Ferrari. His goal with the car was to win a revered Platinum Award at the world-famous Cavallino Classic in Florida and, with that in mind, he sent it to the Ferrari specialist Greg Jones to put it in the best possible stead. The extensive work paid off, Barber clinching the Platinum Award at The Breakers in 2012. Of more importance was the Ferrari Classiche certification, which chassis 3559 SA subsequently received, confirming its matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox and differential. This Ferrari 400 Superamerica was acquired by its current owner in 2013 and has since been carefully stored and seldomly driven. Today, the car is accompanied by its Ferrari Classiche certification binder. In the period, these ultra-rare and highly exclusive flagship twelve-cylinder Ferrari Gran Turismos were the preserve of those who Enzo Ferrari personally held in the highest esteem – and were built to an accordingly high quality. Perhaps unsurprisingly, their stature in the market has remained lofty to this day, bolstered by their rarity, bespoke no-two-alike nature and, of course, exceptional beauty. Chassis number 3559 SA distinguishes itself further with its unbroken chain of owners, each of whom fastidiously maintained it and exhibited it at prestigious events across the world, and its fully matching-numbers provenance. Whether you’re looking to reintroduce this 400 Superamerica Aerodinamico into the international concours circuit (to which it would be welcomed with open arms) or simply after a jaw-droppingly beautiful and astonishingly capable Gran Turismo for cross-continental jaunts, this is a Ferrari for the most discerning of collectors. In fact, 400 Superamericas reside in the world’s most prominent Ferrari collections. Here is an exceedingly rare chance to join them. 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica SWB Girardo & Co.

- 1976 Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina
The Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina offered here in the color Azzurro Metallizzato is one of the rare and sought-after models with fiberglass bodywork and dry sump lubrication. It was delivered to the first owner by the official Ferrari importer in Geneva in July 1976. The car was in the last ownership for over 10 years and was always cherished and cared for. The on-board folder with original owner’s manual, service booklet and exhaust maintenance document is present. This beautiful Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina is in top-maintained and very original collector’s condition. To fill the gap in the portfolio, the 308 GTB was introduced in 1975, establishing a successful model series that was to last for a total of 10 years. The first 308 GTBs had a GRP body (called “Vetroresina” in Italian), but Scaglietti switched to a conventional steel body after just a few models with polyester bodies had been produced, as it was too time-consuming to manufacture the body from glass fiber-reinforced plastic. Only the 308 GTB built for the European market until 1980 had an engine with dry sump lubrication. Cars for overseas and the 308 GTS and all later Berlinetta and Spider successor models with intake manifold injection had engines with wet sump lubrication. 1976 Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina Lutziger Classic Cars AG If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1996-ferrari-f355-gtb-1
The eight-cylinder of the 90s: the Ferrari F355 Berlinetta! The F355 was an ode to the 348, the last Ferrari with a standard manual transmission. The type designation was a surprise for the purists: the first two digits still indicated the cylinder capacity, but the last digit was no longer the number of cylinders, but the number of valves. Consistency, Enzo, consistency! As soon as you wake up the light-footed Otto cilindri a V, you quickly forget about it. In fact: we catch ourselves doing it every time with a childish grin. What a party it is to let those 380 Italian horses loose at more than 8200 rpm!

The F355 was an ode to the 348, the last Ferrari with a standard manual transmission. The type designation was a surprise for the purists: the first two digits still indicated the cylinder capacity, but the last digit was no longer the number of cylinders, but the number of valves. Consistency, Enzo, consistency! As soon as you wake up the light-footed Otto cilindri a V, you quickly forget about it. In fact: we catch ourselves doing it every time with a childish grin.

- 1967-ferrari-330-gtc-by-pininfarina-02
Unveiled at the 1966 Geneva Salon, the Ferrari 330 GTC offered a masterful blend of comfort and performance, capturing the best qualities of both the luxurious 330 GT 2+2 and the competition-inspired 275 GTB. Designed and assembled by Pininfarina in Turin before receiving its mechanical components at Ferrari’s facility in Maranello, the GTC shared the 275 GTB’s steering, suspension, and five-speed transaxle. Its wheelbase, 10 inches shorter than the 330 GT 2+2, provided agility and a notably dynamic driving character that set it apart from other mid-century touring models. Headlining the car’s credentials was its 4.0-liter Colombo V-12 engine, producing 300 horsepower and endowing it with remarkable performance for such a sophisticated grand tourer, reaching 60 mph from a standstill in under seven seconds on its way to a 150-mph top speed. Stylistically, the 330 GTC reflected Pininfarina’s clean, balanced design language. Its forward section echoed the exclusive 500 Superfast with a slim ovoid grille, recessed headlights, and triple-louvered engine-bay vents, while the tail—borrowed from the 275 GTS—added visual lightness, complemented by slim quarter bumpers. Inside, the rear seats were replaced with a practical luggage shelf while exceptionally thin A- and B-pillars created an airy cabin with outstanding visibility all around. The 330 GTC offered here—chassis 9595—completed production on 6 March 1967, with subsequent mechanical fine-tuning carried out by Ferrari’s Assistenza Clienti department at Viale Trento Trieste in Modena. Originally earmarked for export to Switzerland as a left-hand-drive European specification with kilometer-calibrated instruments, the car left the factory presented as it is today in Azzurro (20336 A) over Nero Franzi trim. Ultimately, the car remained in its native Italy, being sold new to a Milanese gentleman before being exported to the United States in 1973 by Milan-based dealer Dino Armando Genghini. Following its arrival stateside, chassis 9595 was sold in September 1973 to a Denver, Colorado, resident who retained it for approximately a year before it passed to an enthusiast in Phoenix, Arizona. After its tenure in the Southwest, the Ferrari came under the ownership of acclaimed civic architect Robert “Bob” Frasca. A founding design partner of the Portland, Oregon-based Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Architects, one of the world’s premier architectural firms, Frasca played a critical role in the evolution of Portland as one of America’s most livable cities and was instrumental in shaping its skyline. He designed many of the Rose City’s most important civic projects, including Waterfront Park, the Multnomah County Justice Center, the Oregon Convention Center, and the Portland International Airport. Frasca would cherish chassis 9595 for nearly three decades, with numerous invoices on file attesting to the car’s maintenance under his care. The legendary architect parted with the Ferrari in 2014 before it was subsequently acquired by the consignor who promptly commissioned an extensive, nearly $47,000 mechanical overhaul by Dino Motors of San Rafael, California. Invoices on file reflect a meticulous rebuild of the numbers-matching engine, new hoses, clutch adjustment, electrical sorting, a fresh wood dashboard, and a host of additional fine mechanical corrections. Further work followed in 2018, when 9595 returned to Dino Motors for continued attention, including a rebuild of its triple Weber carburetors. The car is accompanied by a set of Campagnolo alloy wheels, a service file, and an assortment of owner’s books with leather pouch. Supremely glamorous and consistently admired, this cherished 330 GTC exemplifies the elegance and balance of Ferrari’s mid-century grand touring cars, an example certain to delight its next custodian for years to come. 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1992 Ferrari 512 TR
Over thirty-five years after its introduction, the Testarossa remains a visually stunning expression of Ferrari. Its shocking proportions, particularly the width of the rear track, were driven by the decision to move the radiators from the front of the car to the sides to reduce cabin heat, necessitating what became the car’s visual calling card: the long strakes on the doors and rear fenders. Much of the car’s development was aimed at making the Testarossa more civilized than its Boxer predecessor, addressing contemporary complaints that the Boxer was too raw and insufficiently usable. By that measure, the Testarossa was a success: it was exceptionally high performance but also refined and comfortable. It was a blend that struck a chord with buyers, and over 7,200 examples were built, making it one of Ferrari’s most successful cars of all time. The Testarossa received minor updates throughout its relatively long production run, and then a major update for the 1992 model year to turn it into the 512 TR. Virtually every system of the car was substantially re-engineered, largely with the goal of addressing complaints that the original Testarossa had forgone a little too much of the visceral excitement that should define a Ferrari. The engine was changed from Bosch CIS to Motronic, the valves enlarged, and the compression ratio increased. The exhaust system was also redesigned and the resulting engine gained approximately 50hp and a broader power curve while also becoming dramatically more responsive and sounding much better. The engine was also moved forward and down in the car, a significant enough change to improve the weight distribution by one percentage point at each axle. The suspension was also revised, the steering ratio quickened, and lower profile tires fitted to go with new 18 inch wheels, an increase of two inches. The brakes were also enlarged and fitted with cross drilled rotors. The resulting car feels dramatically different before the clutch is even out: its powertrain is much more urgent, and there is a tautness to its responses in all respects which transforms the quiet, civilized feel of the Testarossa into something with genuine sporting urgency. This particular car is a US car which spent its life in various states, including with its current owner in California for the last 11 years. It has covered 20,000 miles and presents nicely. It has two sets of aftermarket wheels: vintage silver Speedline modular wheels as well as more contemporary black HREs. The car also has a Tubi muffler and a period aftermarket stereo. These changes are easily reversible but collectively give the car a sort of time-warp feeling because the modifications are consistent with how this car would have been modified when new. Included with the car are the HRE wheels as well as the books and partially complete tool set. 1992 Ferrari 512 TR ISSIMI, Inc If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1959 BMW 507 Series 2
BMW presents the Type 507 at the IAA 1955. With a price of almost DM 30,000, the car was almost as expensive as a Mercedes 300 SL, which was only offered as a roadster from 1957. This meant that it was only affordable for extremely well-heeled customers, which also led to an extremely low production figure of only 252 vehicles. The design of the body came from the industrial designer Albrecht Graf Goertz. The body was made of aluminium. Today, the 507 is considered a design icon and is a highly sought-after collector’s item. This 507 was produced in July 1959 and is one of the last 5 examples built.

With a price of almost DM 30,000, the car was almost as expensive as a Mercedes 300 SL, which was only offered as a roadster from 1957. This meant that it was only affordable for extremely well-heeled customers, which also led to an extremely low production figure of only 252 vehicles. The design of the body came from the industrial designer Albrecht Graf Goertz. The body was made of aluminium. Today, the 507 is considered a design icon and is a highly sought-after collector’s item. This 507 was produced in July 1959 and is one of the last 5 examples built. As one of the last 507s produced, it was fitted with disc brakes on the front axle. It was delivered to Frankfurt/Main in this colour combination and still presents itself today with its original engine and gearbox, (Matching numbers and Colours!) very rare for a BMW 507. In 1998 this BMW 507 was restored by a well-known specialist. Invoices and documentation are available. In one hand for 50 years! Very well documented.
