Model overview
Unveiled in 1968, the 365GTB/4 earned its "Daytona" nickname after Ferrari's 1-2-3 finish at the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona—though the factory never officially used the name. Styled by Pininfarina, its long bonnet and fastback tail made it one of the defining GT shapes of its era. Under the bonnet sits a 4.4-litre naturally aspirated V12 producing around 352hp, good for over 170mph when new—among the fastest production cars in the world at the time. It arrived just as the mid-engined Miura was changing the supercar conversation, yet the Daytona proved there was still a place for the classic front-engined V12 GT, and remains one of the most desirable classic Ferraris today.
