The Ferrari 512 TR, introduced in 1992, succeeded the Testarossa and carried its iconic supercar design into the 1990s with notable performance enhancements until production ceased in 1994. While the exterior updates were subtle, the improvements under the hood were significant.
Ferrari upgraded the Testarossa’s flat-12 engine from 380 HP to 421 HP, resulting in faster acceleration, with 0-60 times dropping from 5.2 to 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 192 MPH. Handling was also improved with a stiffer chassis, lighter suspension, and wider wheels.
The 512 TR featured a reworked front end, better aerodynamics, and new 18-inch wheels, enhancing both performance and aesthetics. Production of the 512 TR was limited to just 2,280 units, making it a rare and sought-after model during its short production run from 1992 to 1994.
