Collector Profile: The Berlinetta Boxer family

Ferrari 512 BB / BBi

The 512 Berlinetta Boxer family connects Ferrari’s mid-engined twelve-cylinder road cars with the later Testarossa. Carburettor-fed BB and fuel-injected BBi versions share a silhouette but differ in mechanical and detail specification.

Why it matters

The 512 BB appeared in 1976; the BBi followed in 1981 with Bosch fuel injection and additional detail changes. Neither should be confused with the earlier 365 GT4 BB or the competition-only BB LM.

Collector considerations

Confirm BB or BBi identity and the correctness of engine, induction system, wheels and trim. Review major servicing, fuel-system condition and restoration records, and examine any import or conversion history relevant to the car.

Collector perspective

Choose the variant for its individual character before comparing condition. This profile illustrates the carburettor-era BB; BBi details and any claimed original colour should be verified separately.
