Upon introduction at Paris in October 1984, Ferrari's electrifying new Testarossa created a sensation among showgoers and motoring journalists. Bold in every respect, from its name recalling Ferrari's victorious sports racers of the late 1950s to its unforgettable Pininfarina styling and awesome performance, the Testarossa remains a true supercar icon. Its influence is still profound, described by the UK's Octane magazine editors as "... a remarkably user-friendly supercar," one capable of "... mighty performance delivered in a smooth manner by a sweet and free-revving flat-12." Perhaps most importantly, the Testarossa forced Italian archrival Lamborghini to up its game considerably with a crash development program yielding the heavily uprated Countach 5000 QV.

Rooted in Ferrari's 312 T Grand Prix racing engine dating to 1975, the Testarossa's midmounted, 4.9L flat-12 engine initially delivered a factory-rated 380 HP with Bosch K-Jetronic electronic fuel injection and DOHC cylinder heads with four valves per cylinder, making the Testarossa the world's most powerful sports car at introduction. While demanding few compromises, the deceptively user-friendly Testarossa continues to deliver blistering performance-even by today's standards-with acceleration from rest to 60 MPH in just over 5.0 seconds, the quarter-mile in 12.9 seconds and a top end nearing 180 MPH. In fact, the Testarossa was the world's fastest production car throughout its 11-year production run ending in 1995. Equally brilliant handling included 0.90 G in skidpad testing. Based upon a rigid tubular frame with fully independent suspension including front and rear anti-roll bars, the Testarossa's underpinnings included rack-and-pinion steering and large 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes-specifications that remain current today.

Built during November of 1990, for the 1990 model year this U.S.-specification Testarossa is a highly collectible, late production example with the much more practicable and livable 5 lug 16 inch wheels. Just 14,992 miles are indicated on the odometer. Appropriately finished in Ferrari's signature Rosso Corsa with tan leather upholstery and tan carpets, the Testarossa is of course powered by Ferrari's legendary 4.9L DOHC V-12 engine, here mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox/rear transaxle with stopping via 4-wheel disc brakes. Handsomely bridging Ferrari's classic and modern traditions, this highly collectible and enjoyable late production Testarossa is one of the finest examples of the model on the market today and stands proudly as one of the storied Italian marque's most important road cars.
