Say ciao to the most hardcore Ferrari Testarossa on the planet

This on-the-edge 1984 Ferrari Testarossa may look effortless in red, but beneath that iconic louvered shell lurks a race­tuned monster ready to roar. Classic beauty meets track-day ferocity—in one unforgettable ride.

If we had to pick a Ferrari from the last 40 years to convert into a racer, the Testarossa would not have been our first choice; too heavy, and certainly not the most agile and well-balanced car ever built in Maranello. Still, the owner of this 1984 RHD Ferrari Testarossa clearly felt the urge to put the wedge through its paces on the track. So, he modified the engine and fitted a Penske suspensions and brakes, air jacks, a new race exhaust system below 110 dbs, a new FIA fuel tank, a Sparco steering wheel and bucket race seat, a race harness and BBS race wheels. Campaigned successfully in the late 1990s and eligible for the AMOC GT Series, Formula GT and Formula Libre, this might be the meanest Testarossa we have seen in a while. It is now for sale with Mugello Cars.
