Powered by the legendary 3.0-litre Colombo V12 developing 220 horsepower, the 250 Europa GT combines the engineering of Ferrari’s early competition cars with the comfort, elegance, and long-distance touring capability expected of a true Gran Turismo.
Built between 1954 and 1955 in a production run of just 43 examples, the 250 Europa GT ranks among the most desirable early V12 Ferraris ever produced. Its exceptional rarity, elegant proportions, and understated character have earned it a reputation among connoisseurs as the quintessential “Gentleman’s Ferrari” – refined, discreet, and remarkably capable.
The example offered here was delivered new in February 1955 to Ferrari importer Luigi Chinetti in New York. It was originally specified in Grigio Azzurro K2 with Pelle Marrone VM 3104 leather upholstery.
Its Ferrari Classiche Red Book confirms the car’s authenticity and originality, further underlining its outstanding significance as a highly collectible Ferrari.
