According to information complied by Ferrari Historian Mike Sheehan, 250 Lusso s/n 4481 GT/L was sold new in July 1963 in Italy thru Crepaldi, authorized dealer in Milan to S.I.L.V.A. Sas for a Mr. Bianchi and delivered new in Blu Notte Metallizzato 18943 Italver, the same dark blue on the car today.
As the last of the legendary 250 GT road cars, the 250 Lusso remains one of the most beautiful and best driving Ferrari road cars ever produced. With only 350 cars built, the 250 Lusso has taken its place in history as the last and most collectible of the 250 GT road going Berlinetta’s. Thanks to a high-revving V-12, a well spaced gearbox and disc brakes and a Watts link rear suspension, the Lusso handles and drives as nicely as it looks. The Lusso set the styling standard for grand touring cars when new, and is the most user-friendly of the 250 Berlinetta’s today. This car is in absolutely breathtaking condition and would be a welcome addition to any serious Ferrari collection.
