Description from the seller
Story
Introduced in 1992, the 512 TR was one of the last developments of Ferrari's sensational Testarossa supercar. Ferrari's flagship model, the Testarossa, revitalized a name famous from the company's past when it arrived in 1984. A new generation 'Berlinetta Boxer,' the Testarossa retained its flat-12 front-mounted engine, now boasting a maximum power of 380 hp thanks to four-valve heads. Despite the power increase, handling and drivability were improved; the car features excellent flexibility in higher gears, combined with a top speed of 180 miles per hour. Unlike some of its rivals, the Testarossa had light controls and was relatively easy to drive, factors that, along with its exceptional performance and striking appearance, contributed to a high and steady demand.
In 1992, the original Testarossa was replaced by the extensively revised and improved 512 TR version, which delivered 428 horsepower and significantly better grip compared to its predecessor. The latter was highly appreciated by Autocar testers: 'The 512 explicitly addressed road surface feedback; the Testarossa's feedback was not as sharply focused or ultimately useful when traveling at high speeds.' And the 512 TR could certainly handle it, with a top speed of 314 km/h.
