The 500 Superfast Ferrai inherited both opulent luxury, and the large size of its predecessor, the Ferrari 400 Superamerica. The Ferrari 500 Superfast represents the quintessence of the big coupe Ferrari in the early 60's, whose goal was hit with a fine design, luxury and comfort, plus the performance of a supercar.
The first version of the Ferrari 500 Superfast was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1964, considered one of the best cars in the world, also boosted by its exclusivity and high price.
The coachbuilder responsible for designing and building the Ferrari 500 Superfast was Pininfarina, who designed a car absolutely superb because it combines both elegance and sportiness. In 1965 there was a single type specimen "Aerodynamic Coupe," which had redesigned the front and headlamps with wraparound glass bubbles.
culminated in 1966 the production of this great Ferrari car, by then had made 36 copies in total of which 25 had a standard four-speed transmission, while the remaining 11 had standard transmission five speeds, and 8 specimens were designed with the RHD .
