1984 Ferrari 400i A 2-Door Coupe, PininfarinaChassis No. ZFFEB06B*number in the description*57- The first Ferrari to be offered with a standard automatic transmission.- Of 1,305 400i's produced, one of 883 with automatic transmission.- Stunning color combination of Grigio metallic over Crema leather.- Documented recent servicing in excess of $11,000.- Odometer shows little more than 10,300 original miles.- Unrestored original example is an excellent candidate for Preservation Class.Ferrari unveiled two models at the October 1976 Paris Salon â the 512BB and the 400GT. The 400 was a 2+2 grand tourer largely based on the previous 365GT/4. Call it shocking. Not because of its design which was largely carryover while featuring a new front lip spoiler, a driver's side rearview mirror with remote control, new taillamps (decreased in number from 6 to 4), and 5 lug nuts rather than a knockoff hub to secure the Cromodora wheels. Shocking, because this was the first Ferrari to offer an automatic transmission â standard! To calm the faithful, a 5-speed manual was offered as an option.The idea of an automatic transmission reputedly originated with C.A. Vandagriff, a California Ferrari dealer, who in 1971, fitted a 365GT 2+2 with a stout General Motors Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed automatic transmission. After driving it for several months, the car, in its entirety, was shipped to Modena to work out the bugs. Ferrari was sufficiently impressed to take on the project and bring the car to commercial fruition.Once again, Pininfarina was chosen to design the car. Particular attention was given to the interior which became more accommodating and luxurious. The dash, console and door panels were covered in sumptuous leather. The seats were changed to provide added comfort and given a clever new mounting system that enabled them to slide forward when the backrest was tilted forward for better rear seat access. This was the first Ferrari to include a 4-speaker stereo system.Ferrari clearly read the market correctly. Of the 1,305 400i's built, 883 included the automatic transmission, like this stunning example finished in Grigio Metallic over a luxurious Crema interior with brown accents. Today, no Ferrari features a third pedal, which makes all the fuss about the 400 when it was introduced, seem superfluous. In its test of the 400, Car & Driver, summed it up nicely, . . . a Ferrari for the guy who has cooled off enough about Ferraris that he no longer has to have a red one.The 400 was never officially offered in the U.S. but many came stateside to be Federalized by licensed importers. This car was sold new on June 11, 1984 through Ferrari of Houston to a client in Mexico City. It was then sold in December 1989 to become part of a significant private collection for over three decades. As of this writing, the odometer shows just over 10,300 miles on this original, unrestored example with factory air conditioning, power windows, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM stereo cassette radio. Most recently, in June 2022, it has benefitted from services totaling in excess of $11,000 from Gran Touring Classics in California. Accompanying the car are ownership manuals, tools, and services invoices.

1983 Ferrari 400i 2-Door Coupe, PininfarinaChassis No. 46013- One of 1,305 400i's produced including 422 with the manual transmission.- Recently refinished in proper Nero over Nero leather.- Equipped with factory air conditioning, power windows and cassette stereo.- Documented major service including the fuel injection system. - Southern California car once owned by Sony Pictures President Sanford Panitch.- Accompanied by its original tools and operating manuals.When Ferrari introduced the 400GT at the Paris Salon in October 1976, a surprise was in store for the Ferraristi. It marked the very first time a new model was introduced with an automatic transmission as standard equipment. A joint press release from Ferrari and Pininfarina, explained it thusly, the result of a different concept of the automobile which had developed and asserted itself especially in countries with a high density of automobiles, and which will find increasing favor in Europe in the future. Ironically, the new grand touring 2+2 Ferrari was not initially offered for sale in the United. States. The three-box design, so evocative of its time, is attributed to Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina. To keep the Ferrari faithful satisfied, a traditional 5-speed manual was made optional. Of the 1,305 400i units built through 1985, just 422, like this example, were equipped with the manual transmission; adding to their desirability today. Compared to its predecessor, the Columbo V-12 underwent several modifications. The stroke was increased to 77mm, enlarging the total displacement to 4,823cc (about 400cc per cylinder, hence the 400 name). The camshafts and valve timing were also modified. Breathing through six Weber 38 DCOE carburetors, the horsepower remained at 350hp at 6500rpm. In mid-1979 Bosch K Jetronic fuel injection was added to improve cold starting, run quieter, and afford a cleaner exhaust. Horsepower was revised to 310hp at 6500rpm and torque to 389lb/ft at 4600rpm. Come Fall of 1982, further changes were made by Ferrari, both cosmetic and mechanical. Engines received modified camshafts and new exhaust manifolds. Power was increased to 315hp at 6400pm and torque to 303lb/ft at 4200rpm. Suspension mountings were softened at the front and the rear self-leveling system was linked to a separate fluid source and pump. Finished in a classic combination of Nero over Nero leather, this lovely example was imported new to California by Ferrari Compliance, Inc., of Santa Anna. It was enjoyed by several Southern California owners including, more recently, film executive Sanford Panitch, President of Sony Pictures Motion Pictures Group. A refinish in the factory-correct shade of Nero was completed in July 2021 as was a major service including the fuel injection system, painting of the valve covers and a professional replating of many hardware fittings to their correct factory finish. The five Cromodora wheels are fitted with Michelin TRX radials and the 400i includes factory air conditioning and a Blaupunkt AM/FM stereo cassette radio with four speakers. It is accompanied by tools, manuals, and the aforementioned service and refinishing documentation.
