Rarity, prestige, power - a flawless recipe!
The Ferrari 400 is the Prancing Horse brand's touring car, with a taut, edgy style that Pininfarina has dressed with elegance and sportiness.

Built on a 365 GT4 2+2 base, the 4.3 V12 is increased to 4.8 and offers 340 hp installed at the front of the car.

From its predecessor, Pininfarina modified only a few details, notably the headlamps and front apron.

1979 saw the birth of the 400i, which saw its carburetors replaced by Bosch K-Jetronic injection and its power increased to 315 hp.

American in origin, this V12 convertible is quite rare.

It's a sporty car that's both fun to drive and family-friendly.
