The 1962 Ferrari 250 GT stands out as a unique and exotic collectable Ferrari. It made a huge and instantaneous impact on the driving world as a sports car when it was released in 1959. The 250 in the name indicates the car’s engine displacement of 250 cc per cylinder. With 12 cylinders in its engine, the total displacement was 3.0 Liters. The GT stands for Gran Turismo, which references its classification as a homologation model for GT racing. Multiple versions of the Ferrari 250 GT were made throughout its production range, from the coupe, to the Spyder, to the Competizione, to the Lusso. Thanks to its incredible performance, the racing models won the GT class in international production sports car racing, as well as many famous races such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans. One of the car’s main advantages was its lighter curb weight with an all-aluminum body, covering its steel tubular frame. The nose of the Ferrari 250 GT is pretty recognizable, being long and low for increased aerodynamic performance, as well as the car’s rear features protruding rear fenders to allow space for large tires.
