1968 Ferrari 365 GTC Coupe
The 365 GTC marked an understanding that Ferarri's clientele not only wanted the performance and cachet of the Italian marque but also a refined car that offered a bit of comfort and civility as well. Replacing the 330 GTC, the 365 was fitted with a larger 4.4-liter version of the Colombo V12, making 365 hp and good for a 150 MPH top speed. The suspension was independent front and rear with four-wheel disc brakes, and driveline improvements reduced cabin noise and vibration — a nod to drivability. The 20th 365 GTC made, this example was purchased by Edouard Washer, brother of Belgian tennis player Philippe Washer in 1969 and goes up for auction October 6, 2017.
