The 250 GT Cabriolet Series II refined Pininfarina's original convertible formula into something approaching perfection. With covered headlights and more sophisticated detailing than the earlier Series I, these 200 examples represent the pinnacle of 1960s open-air motoring. The combination of Ferrari's sublime Colombo V12, Pininfarina's elegant proportions, and Scaglietti's meticulous construction created a convertible that could match any contemporary coupe for style while offering the added romance of al fresco driving. Unlike many period convertibles, the 250 GT Cabriolet maintained excellent structural rigidity and driving dynamics. Today's market treats these cars as the blue-chip classics they are—values have appreciated steadily as collectors recognize the Series II as the most refined expression of Ferrari's first great convertible line.
