For the first time in the history of large-calibre Ferraris, the new model did not have an abbreviation, but a proper name, which hearkened back to the legendary 1950s and surrounding years, when the racetracks of the world trembled at the power of the Ferrari “Testa Rossa”, named for the colour of paint (red) used on the cylinder heads of their engines. This model combines the brashness of a prototype and the refinement of a road car. Its production-oriented design has allowed an unexpectedly large series to be built. The body was built in the Pininfarina plant in Grugliasco (Turin).
