Prugna Metallizzato and mechanical gearbox!
Unveiled at the 1976 Paris Motor Show and powered by a 4.8-litre, four-cam V12, the 400 GT reaffirmed Ferrari's desire to rival the world's best luxury sports cars. Its spacious, comfortable interior, luxuriously finished and upholstered in leather right up to the headlining, made it a formidable GT ready to tackle long distances, while its 12-cylinder engine combined with a mechanical gearbox gave it a sportiness and driving pleasure never before seen in a GT of its class.
The 412 presented here was launched in June 1987. Built for the Swiss market, it was later resold in France in 1993 by the Daverat garage with 38,000 km on the clock.
This version is particularly interesting because our 412 is part of a small series equipped with the mechanical gearbox, 270 cars according to Ferrari production figures. Its colour and interior configuration make it even more interesting. We are looking at the very elegant 'Prugna Metallizzato' while the leather is beige.
The car is third hand and the current owner has owned it since 2003. As he only drives it occasionally, he will have it carefully maintained. The TRX tyres are recent, the shock absorbers have been serviced and just before the sale the exhaust system was completely overhauled with the fitting of two Ansa silencers. The Heritage Mecanique workshop in Touraine has just carried out an overhaul after a short downtime.
Today, the Ferrari 412 is in very satisfactory original condition and has never been restored. Its roadholding is excellent, the V12 willingly and coupled to a mechanical gearbox, the pleasure of driving is increased tenfold by playing the engine's vocals.
