The Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder somehow hides an aluminum alloy V-12 under the hood. The engine allowed for a max speed of 145 mph and a 0-60 time of 6.5 seconds. It shares numerous engine parts with the 250 GT Berlinetta, a Le Mans-winning Ferrari.
The introduction of the 288 GTO in 1984 heralded a new era in supercars. This gorgeous Ferrari set new standards for performance (and prices!) that paved the way for a new breed of 'Hypercar' which was to include such classics as the 959, F40, XJ220 and ultimately the McLaren F1.
For starters, it was powered by a 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 sending an impressive 400 hp to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission. Weighing in at just 2,557 lbs, the 288 GTO could go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds and topped out at 189 mph, making it one of the fastest production cars of the '80s.

The new owner had the car restored and entered it in the 250 GTO 25th Anniversary run in 1987. The car was not as well accepted by everybody in the Ferrari community who argued it was no longer a
Interestingly, this abbreviation was not used again until the introduction of the Ferrari 288 GTO in 1984. The development of the 250 GTO began with the Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta short wheelbase, which had a wheelbase of 2400 mm. The 3-liter V12 engine from the 250 Testa Rossa was repositioned, and extensive modifications were made to the
The soul of any Ferrari lies in its engine, and the Lusso features a single overhead-cam V-12 displacing 2,953cc. This engine, with its 73 x 58.8mm bore and stroke, made 240hp at 7,000 rpm with three twin-choke Weber carburetors. A four-speed all-synchro gearbox was the solo transmission.
And, obviously, the reason is technical, rather than sentimental. The historic Ferrari V12 engine, the one featured on Ferrari GTO and Daytona cars, the one that made it to the present on the 400/412 Ferrari series, held almost 20 litres of oil. A modern V12 engine, such as the one on the Ferrari 812 or the GTC4 Lusso, holds only half of that. Once again, Enzo tried to convince the FIA that the new 250 LM was a variant of the 250 GTO. The Ferrari traditional naming scheme, until the early 1990s, followed a three-number formula based on the engine displacement and the number of cylinders. For V12 powered cars, the name was based on the displacement (in cubic centimeters) of one cylinder. The Ferrari 288 GTO unveiled in 1984 at the Geneva Motor Show was the successor of the famous Ferrari 250 GTO, the most valuable collector car in the world. ENGINE SPECS - 2.9L V8 5MT (400 HP
