About the 1976 Ferrari 512 BB

Ferrari's 512 BB launched the company's mid-engine revolution, housing a thunderous 5.0-liter flat-12 behind the driver in Pininfarina's stunning wedge body. The carbureted powerplant delivered 360 horsepower and an unforgettable wail that defined 1970s supercar excess. More powerful than its successor, the 512 BBi, this original version represents peak analog Ferrari engineering. The distinctive side strakes, pop-up headlights, and aggressive stance made it an instant icon, while the challenging driving dynamics separated enthusiasts from poseurs. With only 929 units produced, it's significantly rarer than the later fuel-injected model. Values have surged as collectors recognize the 512 BB as the purest expression of Ferrari's flat-12 philosophy, before emissions regulations necessitated the more civilized BBi.
