Ferrari Pinin

Automobiles

The Ferrari Pinin was a one-off concept car built by the Italian design studio Pininfarina to mark its 50th anniversary, and it remains the first four-door Ferrari ever built. Sergio Pininfarina drove the project, imagining an Italian rival to luxury saloons such as the Jaguar XJ and the Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9, and Enzo Ferrari personally approved it. Leonardo Fioravanti led the design team, which drew a sporting sedan with a coupe-style side view, shown at the 1980 Turin Auto Show on a donor Ferrari 400GT chassis. Enzo Ferrari discussed putting it into production but did not approve it at the 1980 board meeting, so the car stayed a singular concept. It was later made to run with a flat-12 engine from a 512 BB and has passed through several collectors.
