If any single car can truly represent the Ferrari legend, it would be the Ferrari 250 GT SWB. This is one of history’s great “dual-purpose” machines, a car that could be driven to the racetrack, win the class or the race outright, then driven home.The Ferrari 250 GT SWB was the culmination of Ferrari’s continual development and refinement of the 250 engine and chassis in the second half of the 1950s. It also represented Pinin Farina’s ongoing experimentation with the berlinetta (fastback) theme that started with 1947’s Ferrari Cisitalia 202.
The result was a shape so pure, so well-balanced that Sergio Pininfarina called it “the first of our three quantum leaps in design with Ferrari.”
The model’s official debut was 1959’s Paris Auto Show. SWB referred to its “short wheelbase” of 94.5 inches (2400mm), some 7.8 inches (200mm) shorter than its predecessor Ferrari 250 GT models. The decrease was intended to improve handling and cornering speeds, and indeed, the little two-seat coupe fashioned a storied racing career.
