Ferrari 250 GT SWB Speciale Aerodinamico

The Ferrari three-litre Superamerica 

The 250 models played an important role in forming the Ferrari myth as we know it today. The America and Superamerica models, with their coach-built bodies and larger V12 engines, created a unique niche of their own, but were less well known to the general public. Only if you were very close to Enzo Ferrari, you could get the best of both worlds and combine a 250 SWB with a 400 Superamerica into a 250 GT SWB Speciale Aerodinamico. Just four customers were allowed to order one and we got behind the wheel of the final example shortly after it was restored.

Chris Dinnage – Ayrton Senna’s chief mechanic Chris Dinnage – Ayrton Senna’s chief mechanic 

As a mechanic at Team Lotus, Chris Dinnage was responsible for Ayrton Senna’s Formula 1 cars for three years. During that time, he got to know Senna not only at the racetrack but also away from it. 

We sat down with Chris to talk about their time together at Lotus.

Monteverdi Safari The Safari was Monteverdi’s Monteverdi Safari 

The Safari was Monteverdi’s answer to the growing demand for luxury off-road vehicles in the 1970s. It combined the chassis and drivetrain of the International Harvester Scout with the refinement and exclusivity of an Italian coachbuilt body.

This seemingly unusual combination was, in fact, characteristic of Monteverdi, making the Safari one of the most distinctive luxury 4×4s of its era.

A tasteful blend of Swiss craftsmanship and American muscle.

Brabus 190 E 3.6S Leichtbau If German tuning e Brabus 190 E 3.6S Leichtbau 

If German tuning embodies the eccentric spirit of the 1980s, then this lightweight Brabus 190 E 3.6S was at the forefront of that movement. 

Intended as a promotional vehicle, the original Leichtbau disappeared, but Brabus spokesperson and veteran Sven Gramm decided this cover model deserved a comeback. 

While driving this feisty piece of German cultural heritage, we spoke about the history behind it with the man who revived the legend.

Porsche 911 Turbo S “Leichtbau” Driving a muse Porsche 911 Turbo S “Leichtbau” 

Driving a museum car is always a special treat, but receiving the keys to the prototype of one of the rarest and most impressive Porsche 911 variants is a dream come true. 

Motorcar Journal spent two days driving through the Black Forest in the 911 Turbo S, which is essentially a stripped-out 964 with an upgraded 3.3-liter turbocharged engine producing 381 PS. 

In many ways, it was a precursor to the GT2 RS, which wouldn’t appear until nearly two decades later.

Rare Shades – A film about Moonstone Porsche c Rare Shades – A film about Moonstone 

Porsche collector Justin Roeser from Texas is so fascinated by the colour Moonstone, that his collection not only evolves around this pale lavender shade, but he made a film about it with Kevin McCauley. 

This episode in their Rare Shades series is a deep dive into this cool but unsuccessful Porsche hue, as well as the starting point of a series about fascinating stories hidden behind unusual and iconic Porsche colours.

We got behind the wheel of a very rare Maserati 3500 GT Spyder. Not one of the 242 cars manufactured by Vignale, but one of only three prototypes built by Touring, two years before the production cars were ready.
