Chassis No. ZFFTA17B000064875 As good as the rest of the mid-1980s grand tourers were, Ferrari captured the decade's imagination with the Testarossa. More than a supercar, the Testarossa became a cultural touchstone, appearing on television, in arcade games, in music videos, and the driveways of the fortunate few. Styled by Pininfarina, the Testarossa was a bold reinvention of the Berlinetta Boxer. To solve chronic cabin heat issues, Ferrari moved the radiators to the sides of the mid-mounted 4.9-liter, 180-degree twelve engine. Massive side intakes, veiled by horizontal strakes, both met regulatory requirements and defined the car's aesthetic. The result was an instantly recognizable silhouette that was simultaneously functional and extravagant. It epitomized 1980s excess while securing the Testarossa's legacy as one of Ferrari's most iconic creations. Unveiled at the Lido Night-Club on the Champs-Élysées in Paris, amid the glitz and festivity of the Parisian nightlife in 1984, the Testarossa was originally fitted with a single exterior mirror, earning its early models the nickname “Monospecchio,” as well as a unique central wheel bolt—the “Monodado”—for securing the wheels. Delivered new in Rosso Corsa with a Nero (Black) leather interior by Auto Becker in Düsseldorf, Germany, in July 1986, it belonged to the renowned fashion designer Otto Kern, whose second passion for automobiles was expressed both through his financial support of German Formula One drivers and through his own driving experiences as an amateur. The current owner, the third in the car’s history, has possessed it since 2009. In July 2025, this Testarossa underwent a major service at Modena Motorsport, including the replacement of the timing belts, installation of an ANSA exhaust, as well as work on the brake calipers, the injection system, and the fitment of new tires. The detailed invoice is available for review. The odometer shows 50,200 kilometers at the time of cataloging, documented by the original stamped service book that accompanies the car. It is also accompanied by its original tools and keys. This iconic matching numbers Ferrari Testarossa “Monospecchio” now seeks, on the occasion of its 40th anniversary, a new owner to delight.
