As the 1980s dawned, the supercars of the day gained massive wings and wide fender flares to reflect an excessive era of vibrant colors and big hair. Ferrari's answer was the Testarossa, which featured the timeless combination of a naturally aspirated 12-cylinder engine, gated manual transmission, and Pininfarina design. Its glorious strakes and louvers immediately made it one of the most lusted-after supercars of the decade, cemented by its appearance in Miami Vice.

In addition to being more powerful than its contemporaries – pumping out a production car record 380-horsepower – the Testarossa, despite what its aggressive appearance may suggest, was also one of the most comfortable supercars of the 1980s, with Paolo Murani of Automobilia calling it "A 300-kph living room." Ferrari's latest flagship featured an ergonomic Connolly Autolux leather-swathed interior fitted with air conditioning, power windows and mirrors, and a stereo system. Furthermore, as an early 1987 model-year example, this Testarossa additionally benefits from a number of factory mechanical refinements including an improved injection system, fuel level gauge, and water and oil pump drive chain. Critically, it also hails from before the introduction of five-bolt wheels in June 1988 and therefore sports the desirable "Monodado" center-lug 16-inch wheels.

Chassis number 69325 was completed in January 1987 as a left-hand drive, US-market example, and finished in the quintessential Ferrari color configuration of Rosso Corsa paintwork over a Beige and Testa di Moro (Brown) Connolly leather interior. The original warranty book that accompanies the car records film producer Yuri R. Spiro as the Testarossa's original owner, who is thought to have had the car shipped to his Southern California home from new. According to the accompanying CARFAX Vehicle History Report, the Ferrari changed hands in 2003, when it is said to have passed to the current consignor's brother-in-law. Remaining in California, the car joined the consignor's distinguished collection of European sports cars approximately 8 years ago, where its dutiful maintenance and preservation have continued. While under the consignor's care in 2015, chassis number 69325 visited Fast Cars Ltd. of Redondo Beach, California, where it was treated to an extensive engine-out service, mechanical overhaul, careful disassembly of the original dashboard and retrim of the top dash pad, and minor corrective paintwork to the front bumper at a cost of over $33,000.

Today, the Ferrari has traveled fewer than 1,000 miles since being mechanically overhauled and is offered with just under 32,000 total miles at the time of cataloging. The Tipo F110 Testarossa remains one of the most coveted and widely recognizable models of the marque for its era-defining styling, superb drivability, and legendary performance. With just three California-based collector owners from new and its desirable "Monodado" specification, chassis 69325 is a fine example of the breed.
