Ferrari 275 GTS GTS 1965

General description : The Ferrari 275 GTS was revealed at the 1964 Paris Auto Show, alongside its hard top name-sake, the 275 GTB. Although in terms of appearance the two cars are clearly distinguishable, mechanically they both utilise a similar 3.3-litre Colombo V12 as well as similar chassis and suspension set-ups.The 275 GTS was the replacement for the outgoing 250 GT Series II Cabriolet and was mainly intended for the US market, where the success of high-performance Grand Touring cabriolets had long been established. Furthermore, the 275 GTS is in fact a much rarer vehicle than its Berlinetta sibling, with only 200 examples being made in a short production period. The car we are delighted to offer was built in Maranello in 1965 with Rosso paint over a Nero interior and was the 32nd car produced out of a total of 200. Joe Macari Performance Cars sourced the car in 2016 and swiftly sent it to be restored in Maranello. No expense or time was spared on this ground up, nut and bolt, restoration at the factory. The car was re-painted from Rosso to Rubino, probably the finest colour for a classic Ferrari to wear.The car was awarded Ferrari Classiche Certification in early 2018, certifying the restoration's authenticity. In accompaniment to the sale, the car comes with a period tool roll, jack, spare wheel and Nero tonneau cover. There is also a period spare part's catalogue, Classiche Folder, and, of course, a professionally collated photograph album of the restoration. This perfect condition, matching engine example is one of the finest available on the market and would make a great addition to any collection.

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right?
Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.

Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.

Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.

In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
