Ferrari began producing flat-12 “Boxer” engines for competition in 1964, but it was not until 1971 that the design made its way into a production Ferrari, the 365 GT4 BB, the nomenclature signifying 365cc/cylinder swept volume, Grand Touring, 4-cam Berlinetta Boxer. Introduced at the 1971 Turin show, the BB scored big with customers pining for the status and exclusivity of owning the first mid-engined road car to wear a Ferrari badge. Pininfarina’s brilliant exterior design just happened to be the icing on the cake, proving so successful that it was carried over with few obvious changes in the 365’s successor, the 512 BB (5.0L 12-cylinder), unveiled at Paris in 1976.
Now displacing a full 5.0L, the 512’s Weber-carbureted engine gave up 20 HP to the 365 yet was more flexible thanks to its higher torque. Basic underpinnings remained unchanged: fully independent suspension with unequal-length double wishbones, front coilovers and dual rear coilovers, front and rear anti-roll bars, Koni shocks and 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes. External revisions included a new grille with integrated fog lights, a deep front spoiler, four tail lights, quad exhaust, NACA ducts for increased cooling, and wider, center-lock, five-spoke wheels. Further development led to the Bosch fuel-injected 512 BBi, which was introduced at the 1981 Frankfurt Motor Show.
One of the last hand-assembled Ferrari production cars, the 512 BBi remained in production until 1984. One of just 1,007 BBi models produced, this 1984 example incorporates the 4.9L F110A flat-12 featuring Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection with dual CIS fuel distributors and rated at 340 HP at 6,800 RPM, and here that engine is backed by a 5-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential.
Dressed in Rosso Corsa over a Nero lower body and paint protection film, the car has a purposeful Nero leather interior that features Daytona-style seats, a leather-wrapped Momo steering wheel, a gated shifter, Veglia Borletti instrumentation, a Pioneer cassette radio and graphic equalizer, and air conditioning. The water pump was rebuilt and the ignition box, fuel pumps, fuel filters and fuel lines were replaced. Offered with an odometer reading of just 21,155 kilometers, this 1984 512 BBi’s excellent presentation shows a lifetime of caring ownership worthy of this milestone Ferrari.
