Ferrari 166 Sport Corsa 
The Ferrari 166 S was an evolution of Ferrari's 125 S sports race car that became a sports car for the street in the form of the 166 Inter. Only 39 Ferrari 166 S's were produced, soon followed by the production of the 166 Mille Miglia (MM) which was made in much larger numbers from 1949 to 1952. The 166 MM were in fact updated 166 S and were the cars that score many of Ferrari’s first international victories and made Ferrari a serious competitor on the racing industry. It shared its Aurelio Lampredi-designed tube frame and double wishbone/live axle suspension with the 125. Like the 125, the wheelbase was 2420 mm long. 39 examples were produced from its introduction at the Turin Motor Show in 1948 to its retirement in 1950. It was replaced by the 2.3 L 195 S in 1950. The first 166 Inter was designed by Touring's chief stylist, Carlo Anderloni. 166 S competition models were generally coachbuilt by Carrozzeria Allemano.


The Ferrari 166 MM
The Ferrari 166 MM forged Ferrari’s racecar identity.
The 1.5 L Gioacchino Colombo-designed V12 engine of the 125 was changed, however, with single overhead camshafts specified and a larger 2.0 L (1995 cc/121 in³) displacement. This was achieved with both a bore and stroke increase, to 60 by 58.8 mm respectively. Output was 110 to 140 hp (82 to 104 kW) at 6,000 rpm with one to three carburettors.
Motor Trend Classic named the 166 MM Barchetta as number six in their list of the ten "Greatest Ferraris of all time".

  1. Ferrari 250 GTE was Ferrari’s first 4 seat version and the thought was powerful enough to evolve to a series of Ferrari 2+2s that used similar engineering while the athletics cars. Because these were made pertaining to grand traveling, the GTE was sold as a magnificent car.


    To allow two further seats, Ferrari had to push the engine and auxileries 12 inches wide forward and extend the bodywork a simlar amount compared to the past 250. The wheelbase continued to be the same, however the additional mass added 169 lbs towards the car.
