While many of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/greatest-ferraris-of-all-time\/\">fan favourites<\/a> are mid-engine cars, like the Enzo and the F40, there\u2019s a special place in our hearts for the front-engine Ferrari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturally, we\u2019ve tasked ourselves with uncovering the best of the best over the years, so keep reading to find out which ones make the cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choosing The Top Front-Engine Ferraris<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While pouring over these front engine icons was fun, it was far from simple &#8211; we had to get methodical. It\u2019s not easy to quantify thrills or the sweet sound of the engine, but we definitely gave it our best shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We used design, innovation and ingenuity as well as performance and engine power to define the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/carparts\/marque\/ferrari\/ferrari-parts.html\">Ferrari models<\/a> on our list. Handling, style and engineering were also deciding factors when it came to evaluating Ferrari\u2019s most iconic front-engined supercars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ferrari 250<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re travelling back to the golden years when the Prancing Horse built its legend and made sporting history. One of the most successful early lines, the Ferrari 250 series brought us many remarkable and rare front-engine vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\"><strong>Ferrari 250 GTO<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a rare pleasure for anyone who gets to drive or even see this front-engine Ferrari in action. A small production run means that Ferrari only made 36 250 GTO cars. It\u2019s a dual-purpose road\/race car that was successful on the track. It outclassed others in the prototype and GT category, which has helped build its legendary status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A significant part of the appeal is the racing pedigree. Raced by Scuderia Ferrari, it was only given to the best drivers; Stirling Moss assisted with the development and achieved record times during test sessions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The build of the car not only gives it its distinct style but it also allows the beautiful sounds of the engine to emanate, like music to your ears.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seeing the low aerodynamic body, which gives the Ferrari 250 GTO its appealing shape, racing around a track is a sight to behold. In the early 60s, it secured the team wins at the Tour de France, Nurburgring, Goodwood and Le Mans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the most expensive Ferrari of all time and the second-most expensive car sold at auction. Subtle changes throughout the production run and the racing career modifications mean that no two models are alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 300 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 174 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 1962<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: It perfectly embodies the Ferrari philosophy by mastering the balance between road and race car.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\"><strong>Ferrari 250 GT Lusso<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as the Ferrari 250 GT\/L or the 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso, it\u2019s possibly the most elegant front-engine Ferrari ever made and in many eyes the most stylish of all. Significantly, it retained the low, aerodynamic design that makes a Ferrari 250 recognisable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though it\u2019s a road car, several owners took it to competitions. The 250 GT Lusso has graced the track at Targa Florio and the Tour de France in the mid-60s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are numerous photos of petrolhead Steve McQueen with his Ferrari 350 GT Lusso &#8211; which he bought for $23,988 back in 1964. That was later sold at auction for $2,310,000 in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The curving roofline, leather bucket seats and wraparound <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/carparts\/marque\/part\/ferrari\/ferrari-bumper.html\">chrome bumper<\/a> provides a classy finish. While the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/carparts\/marque\/part\/ferrari\/ferrari-grille.html\">front grille<\/a> and V12 engine fed by three Weber carburettors more than facilitates its speed, power and aggression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 236 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 149 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 1962<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: Timeless Pininfarina style.

It launched in 1957 and won the Constructors\u2019 World Championship a year later, securing its place in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two-seat, open-top Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa (TR) is arguably one of the greatest cars to ever come from Maranello. Part of that is down to its distinct design. It also achieved cult status due to the fact that only 33 were made. Nowadays, most examples you\u2019ll find are restorations or reproductions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each one has an enviable race pedigree. It\u2019s not an exaggeration to say that the 250 TR was Ferrari\u2019s most successful racing car. It secured four World Championships and numerous other wins at its peak in the late 50s and early 60s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s known for being light and nimble while making the most of the 3.0-litre V12 engine with a six twin-choke carburettor configuration. The Ferrari film, starring Adam Driver, explores Enzo\u2019s dedication and follows this famous car as it succeeds in the Mille Miglia race and triumphs at Le Mans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 296 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 168 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 1957<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: Unbeatable racing pedigree, it\u2019s a work of art that\u2019s also seen success on the track.

You might also hear it called the 250 GT Berlinetta Passo Corto. By 1960, the road version had been honed by Pininfarina and Scaglietti. The racing versions stuck to the original aluminium body on show in 1959.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, you can find competition and road cars with light bodies, highly-tuned engines and luxury trims. The 1961 competition cars come with modifications to keep up with its main competitor of the day, the Jaguar E-Type. Special exhaust manifolds, bigger valves and different carburettors were all used to give this fast car an extra boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leather bucket seats and Berlinetta body give it that inimitable Prancing Horse feel. A few one-off designs are out there, including a cabriolet version and a lightweight competition model, which was driven by Baghetti and Moss. It saw action at Goodwood, Daytona, Sebring and Le Mans, winning trophies and GT categories.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the other cars in this series, the 250 GT SWB had the Colombo V12 front engine. Each one is a piece of history providing insight into Ferrari\u2019s racing revolution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this Berlinetta is one of the most sought-after classics, thanks to its well-proportioned body, attractive appearance and reliable performance on the road and the track. In 2019, a 1962 model sold for over $8 million at auction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 276 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 167 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 1960<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: Well-proportioned road and race cars that blurred the lines between competition specifications and luxury trims to deliver attractive supercars that didn\u2019t compromise performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-250-GT-SWB-compressed.webp 1254w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ferrari 599 GTO<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s time to turn our attention to a modern front-engine Ferrari. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/aftermarket\/ferrari\/599\/tuning\/599-gto\">Ferrari 599 GTO<\/a> stands out thanks to the many cutting-edge elements that brought it to the road. It\u2019s the road version of the experimental 599XX, and it earns its place on this list because of the way it pushes limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes this supercar an absolute thrill to drive is how responsive it is and the incredible naturally aspirated V12 sound. The chassis setup and electronic controls have been fine-tuned with innovations that deliver control and performance. It uses F1-Trac traction control, giving you that race car feel. The precise cornering makes a drive on a winding road heavenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything, from the streamlined flanks to the nose and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/carparts\/marque\/part\/ferrari\/ferrari-spoiler.html\">front spoiler<\/a>, is aimed at reducing drag, improving efficiency and delivering speed. At a time, it was Ferrari\u2019s fastest road car and is still one of the very best when it comes to speed. The aerodynamic adaptations certainly don\u2019t hurt the styling &#8211; the front grille and curved roofline make it just as good to look at as it is to drive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\"><strong><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 661 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 208 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 2010<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: Maximised power at high RPM, little to no understeer and superb feedback from the chassis.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ferrari 550 Maranello<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A modern classic.

The attention to detail, particularly when it comes to aerodynamics, equals efficiency and uncompromising performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s practical, though, which means you get speeds over long distances that give you a versatile and reliable experience on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the decade, this car has aided the likes of Eddie Irvine, Niki Lauda, Michael Schumacher and Jody Scheckter in their exploits. In 1998, it set the world speed record for a production road car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite its retro nods to classic models, this Ferrari has its own identity. It doesn\u2019t break the mould, but it certainly balances elegance and aggression in a more subtle way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Engine: V12<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max power: 479 hp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Max speed: 199 mph<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Release date: 1996<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights: So good they named it after Ferrari\u2019s headquarters, the 550 Maranello has speed, style and class.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed-1024x681.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed-1024x681.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed-300x199.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed-768x511.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed-602x400.webp 602w, https:\/\/www.scuderiacarparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ferrari-550-Maranello-compressed.webp 1256w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ferrari F12berlinetta<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, the Prancing Horse kicked the efficiency up a notch to deliver more power and an even better performance.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s all made possible by the 6.3-litre V12 engine, the active electronic differential and the dual-clutch transmission that sends power to the rear.
