Presented at the 1964 Geneva Motor Show, the Ferrari 500 Superfast was a prestige coupé that succeeded the 400 Superamérica. Until 1966, 37 examples were produced. It belonged to the Ferrari America or Superamerica (SA) family, born of Enzo Ferrari’s desire to develop, from the early 1950s onwards, a specific model adapted to the American taste for luxury and power. The bodywork of the Ferrari 500 Superfast, designed and built by Pininfarina, was taken from the previous ‘Aerodynamica’ coupé, with a truncated rear end unlike the previous one. The 365 GT 2+2 will follow in the footsteps of this 500 Superfast, taking its inspiration from the bodywork.
