Few automobiles capture the visual and cultural bravado of their era quite like the Ferrari Testarossa. Its impact on the unassuming driver, the young car-crazy dreamer, or the seasoned sports car aficionado remains undiminished. Its low-slung, raked wedge profile is, by some stroke of genius, both sinister and elegant, forward-thinking yet timeless. Unlike many “performance cars” of the emissions-constrained era, the Testarossa performed as boldly as it looked with a top speed approaching 180 mph and a zero to 60 mph time of just over five seconds—translating to a driving experience as commanding as its presence.

The Testarossa offered here is a truly marquee example, displaying just 4,932 miles at its time of cataloguing and finished in the model’s classic Rosso Corsa (Fer. 300/9) over a breathtaking cabin trimmed in beige leather with red carpets, a red leather-trimmed dash and console, and matching beige over red door panels.

Benefiting from a lifetime of meticulous stewardship, the car is said to have been initially imported through Algar Ferrari in Philadelphia and delivered via Thoroughbred Motorcars in Nashville before passing through a documented series of careful owners, each dedicated to maintaining its condition and ensuring that its performance lived up to its legendary presence. In 2021, the car received an extensive service totaling more than $26,000 from Ferrari of Seattle, including new timing belts, fresh fluids and filters, replacement rubber hoses throughout the coolant, fuel, and brake systems, along with a general inspection and correction of minor faults. Most recently, in preparation for its sale, the car received new fuel accumulators and filters, an oil change, and fresh clutch and brake fluid.

Included in the sale of this exceptional Ferrari are five pieces of highly sought-after Schedoni Testarossa fitted luggage, a tool roll, and documentation, including two large binders of service records and correspondence.

A true benchmark of the iconic Testarossa, this exceptionally preserved, low-mileage example—complete with a stellar livery and known provenance—is both a must-have for the discerning collector and a machine certain to attract acclaim wherever automotive excellence is recognized.
