I currently own a White/Blanco 1985 Ferrari 400i, with auto trans. Rumor has it that Enzo was getting letters from his "senior aged" customers about having trouble driving & holding their glass of vino, as there are NO cup-holders in the car, (it does have 2 ashtrays & 2 lighters)! Enzo decided an auto trans would be tested, first was a German box, I believe, but they exploded often, the GM TH400 was already being used by other manufactures and a proven heavy-duty unit in trucks and Corvettes...it handled the torque of the V-12 without a problem. The car is very nice to drive and ride, solid and powerful, quiet and luxurious, power brakes, power steering, power windows, a double unit A/C system was available, complete leather interior and it does have an automatic hydraulic independent rear suspension. The Bosch Fuel Injection system is "two" of everything, as Bosch only made 4 cyl, 6 cyl and 8 cyl units with the V-12 requiring 2 of the 6 cyl fuel distributors, 2 warm up units, 2 electric fuel pumps, so the car has a 6 cyl system on each side, the engine will actually run on only one bank! Yes, the main body design lasted 17 years, the longest of any Ferrari design, with changes as stated, taillamps changed from 6 to 4, the hot air vent in the hood went from silver to body color, interior and dash changed, instrument lamps changed from pale blue in 1985 400i to soft red in 1986 412, the wheels also changed in 1986 to a flatter face to accommodate the ABS system added. It has a complete metal tube chassis; the body will lift off in one piece, the hood, doors and rear trunk lid are removeable, but the front fenders and front body bumper are all welded together to the body, there is no way to simply remove a front fender or wing and replace it, all damage to the body is a major job. The power train uses a "torque tube", a hollow tube bolted to the rear of the trans and to the front of the rear diff, which is mounted solid to the frame, no "twisting of the engine or lifting of the front end, all of the power goes to the rear wheels.<br>I bought mine 8 years ago for a very reasonable price as it was a "non-runner" at the time, teaching myself how to work on the car, finding parts, and learning the Bosch FI had it running in 8 months and my investment had doubled in value !

Thanks! A colleague in my DC days had a 400. When she started it in the underground parking garage, it was epic. All the best.

An understated Ferrari. A dream car.

I’ve always liked the looks of Ferrari’s 400 series. It was my favorite looking Ferrari 2+2 of all time, until the 456 arrived in the 90s.

I have always believed the 365/400/412 to be a very underestimated car. Glad to hear that Iain agrees.

The 365/400/412 is my absolute favourite Ferrari..you can keep all the rest, as nice as they are, this is a classy gentleman's car..along with the Fiat 130 in the garage.😊

A minutes walk from my house are two 130 saloons sitting on a drive, one partially covered, one open to the elements.<br>How they have survived after probably 30+ years sitting in English weather I don't quite know.

One of his best quotes I’ve heard yet, “A lot of people are only good at destroying expensive machinery”❗️SO very true!!
