The Benchmark: 1991 Ferrari 512 TR Stunning and Dynamically Polished?

Sports & Exotic Car presented by Gullwing Motor Cars returns to Southern California as Jethro navigates the roads along the beaches of Malibu for his first-ever opportunity to drive a Ferrari 512 TR. With over-the-top functional styling, thanks to side strakes feeding the mid-engine radiators as well as the siren call of the 4,943 cc flat-12 cylinder powerplant, this redhead remains iconic. Embracing the decadence were impressionable young men of the ‘80s who likely had Farrah Fawcett in a red one-piece on one wall and a Rosso Corsa 512 TR on the other. But as Jethro states in this episode, “no car could look that good and be dynamically polished, too. It just wouldn’t be fair on the rest of the world.” Well, that may be the problem. Life’s not fair. But there is a screaming 12-cylinder in a tunnel at the end of this video. Eargasmic. Hemmings is the ultimate destination for finding your perfect ride.
