Ferrari 365 GTS-4 Daytona Spyder

“These are great old cars especially fun to drive, now really going up in value,” said Putnam Leasing’s Steven Posner. You can expect they’ll stay up there.

The Ferrari 365 GTB/4, known as Ferrari Daytona, is a Gran Turismo automobile shaped from 1968 to 1973.First introduced to the public in 1968 at Paris Auto Salon in 1968 replacing the 275GTB/4 , although it was also a Pininfarina designed by Leonardo Fioravanti, the Daytona was fundamentally different. Its sharp-edged style resembled a Lamborghini than a traditional Pininfarina Ferrari. The Daytona name commemorates Ferrari's triple success in February 1967. While it was initially used as a pre-production internal denomination, Ferrari still insists that this was never the model's official name and as such should not be used when referring to the car in any true manner.

The Daytona Spyder has continued to rise in value for the past few years, and is rare preferred after the Ferrari classic. After sitting just short of the half-million mark for a long time, these front-engine V12 drop tops are finally gathering steam.

Historically, and especially since the mid-80s and early 90s, there has mostly been a considerable market price difference between a real Berlinetta and a real Spyder. In hope for higher value and prospective sale revenue or even due to the fact that not too many factory spyders were ever built, some Berlinettas were turned into convertibles. They are usually distinguishable from a factory-made GTS by a more slanted windshield.
