Ferrari 500 Superfast

Presented at the 1964 Geneva Motor Show, the Ferrari 500 Superfast represents the pinnacle of Ferrari grand touring in the 1960s. Designed as an extremely exclusive car for a prestigious clientele (heads of state, aristocrats and the wealthy), it combined luxury, quiet running and high performance. It represents the ultimate evolution of the great Ferrari V12 road cars, derived from the 410 and 400 Superamerica, before the arrival of the 365. Produced in very low volumes, the 500 Superfast was one of the rarest and most refined Ferraris of its time.
