The 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.0 stands as the ultimate evolution of the naturally aspirated Porsche 911 designed for competitive purposes.

However, a resurgence of interest in bespoke automobiles emerged with the dawn of the 21st century. This resurgence has led to Ferrari establishing the Special Projects division in 2008. Ferrari’s Special Projects division offered Fer ..read more

The 330 GTC was unveiled at the 1966 Geneva Salon and was an amalgam of other Ferraris. It shared its 94.5-inch wheelbase and tubular steel chassis with the 275 GTB, and its 4-liter, V-12 motor was the same as the one powering the 330 GT 2+2. The Pininfarina-styled body was a mash-up as well, taking styling cues from the 500 Superfast for the front end and the 275 GTS for the rear. The Pininfarina designed body was assembled at their facility in Turin, then delivered fully trimmed for final mechanical assembly at Ferrari. Something out of the norm for Ferrari, the GTS carried a model badge on ..read more
