Pinin Farina was the
predominant coachbuilder of these mighty Ferraris, and a
limited series of bodies were constructed, with each
example receiving subtle bespoke details that continue to
fascinate marque enthusiasts today. The coachbuilder’s
efforts for the 410 Superamerica were based largely on its
designs for the contemporary 250 GT, but are immediately
distinguished by their increased scale, decorative
flourishes, and singular features.
During
its limited production run, the 410 Superamerica had no
direct competitor and was truly in a class of its own. The
asking price represented a tremendous sum for the period
and, although final pricing was established “in accordance
to specifications,” most examples approached $17,000 –
significantly more than the most expensive 250 GT. |
