Pininfarina was the genius behind this front-engined
masterpiece. The design was derived from the almost identical
looking 365 GT4 2+2 (which itself was based on the famous Daytona).
Production began in 1976. when Ferrari revealed its first car
fitted with an automatic transmission. the 400. at the Paris Motor
show of 1976. The GT version however took advantage of a five-speed
all synchromesh transmission. Although the incorporation of an
automatic transmission. and U. S. emissions compliance. indicate it
may have been designed for the Americans market. no version of the
400 series was ever officially imported to the USA. Despite this. br/>many have been brought to America as grey imports where the car
enjoyed a limited popularity with movie stars such as Sammy Davis
Jr. The interior was lavishly appointed with rich leather. fine
wood and higher end carpet. The injection version followed with
Bosch K-Jetronic under the bonnet. Today its sleek
Pininfarina-designed lines and relatively limited production
numbers certainly give it classic status.

Originally registered on 12th May 1982. this Ferrari
has only had four keepers in its 34 years on the road. Purchased by
the current owner in 1994. this Ferrari is without doubt a handsome
car and one that has been well looked after. The blue paintwork has
been 'refreshed' in places although to a good standard and finish. br/>the beige leather trim has a delightful patina. The vendor has
ensured this Ferrari is stored correctly when not in use and. after
many years in his possession. has decided the time has come for
this 400i to find a new home. Sadly some of the paperwork has been
misplaced however she is supplied with a V5C registration document. br/>a full years' MoT test certificate and invoices covering the last
four years. In recent years. the 400 series Ferrari's have
increased in value as the market realises what an underrated car
this is.
