Model history

The name Testa Rossa refers to the colour that the camshaft covers were painted on the Ferrari sports racing models. The Paris Motor Show in 1984 saw the return of the Testarossa. The Pininfarina-designed supercar was striking and innovative with its aerodynamic layout and large side intakes. The engine was the first four valves per cylinder flat 12 fitted in a Ferrari road car, producing a claimed 390bhp @ 6300 rpm (European models). This was the most powerful engine mounted on a production sports car at the time of its launch.

The Ferrari Testarossa made quite an impact: it became one of the most iconic models of the 80’s and even today, it is an exceptional car. The sound of the engine is fantastic and especially with a sports exhaust it is exhilarating! For those who have not experienced the Testarossa we must inform you, the car has a remarkably smooth and supple ride. It is a long distance GT which has amazing power in every gear. Our own racing driver: ’I remember driving back from the Nurburgring and shifting to fifth gear on the motorway and hitting the 280 km/h so fast it was quite amazing’.

This example

This specific Ferrari Testarossa was delivered new on the 18th of August in 1988 via Kroymans Ferrari. Finished in Rosso Corsa with black interior. The choice which suits the car just fine. The car always remained in Holland and has only 40.584km since new. It shows really nice and correct bodywork. The paint is in very nice and mostly original condition. The interior is well kept with original black leather unmarked. The car comes with a copy service book and its original tool kit. We are informed the car had 1 owner from 1988-2014 and 2 owners since.

This car benefits from a sport exhaust and an interesting low mileage. Just back from a very big service (19.600 euro) at Dutch specialists Mugello Engineering (March 2023).
