Ferrari Pinin Concept all'asta il 26 ottobre a Londra

1980 Ferrari Pinin Concept, the one and only sedan with a Ferrari badge ever made, will soon be up for auction. This outstanding one-off was built to celebrate designer Pininfarina 50th anniversary and originally it didn’t even have an engine, although it was eventually given one in the form of a 5.0 litres 12 cylinder boxer engine delivering 365 hp. Elegant and luxurious, this car was equipped with such accessories as a second radio with headphones for the passengers on back seat.

Even though Enzo Ferrari himself liked the car, it never went into production because of the ‘cold’ response from Ferrari’s customer base. However, the Pinin Concept still maintains its original glamourous appeal and can be considered as the forerunner of models like Porsche Panamera and Aston Martin Rapide. It will be up for grabs next October, 26th in an event organized by RM Auctions, and is expected to fetch at least half a million Euros.

    It is not the one and only sedan. Ferrari 456 gt has a sedan version as well.
