The Glorious Roar Of The Ferrari 275 GTB Shortnose

As noted by Fantasy Junction, The Ferrari 275 GTB was Introduced at the 1964 Paris Auto Show, and represented significant advances over the 250 GT Lusso that it replaced.

The styling was more exciting and rakish, and mechanically, the cars were much more sophisticated. Independent suspension was fitted all around for the first time on a road-going Ferrari, and a 5-speed gearbox was also included in the specification.

The transmission was mounted at the rear of the car for improved weight distribution in a transaxle. These features combined with the larger and more powerful 3.3 liter engine meant that the 275 GTB was a markedly faster and more capable car than any other mainstream roadgoing Ferrari before it. That it was and remains achingly beautiful is further icing on the cake.

In this video below by youtube-er Gumball, this spectacular Ferrari 275 GTB Shortnose got to stretch its legs at Spa-Francorchamps during the Modena Trackdays 2013. The sound protruding from the V12 engine in combination with the exhaust is simply brutal, in the best of ways!
