Not only does it come with barely 23,000 miles on the clock, but it's a true Italian original – delivered new in Italy, finished in the classic Rosso Corsa over Crema Connolly leather, and sporting that legendary monospecchio flying mirror that gets collectors buzzing. After a serious round of mechanical TLC in 2023, it's now up for grabs in Canada.1986 Ferrari TestarossaBring a TrailerWhat It's Worth Right NowThe Testarossa market has been anything but sleepy lately. Prices are all over the map, depending on how original, rare, or low-mileage your car is. According to Classic.com, the current benchmark sits at $175,985, but the average sale price is a beefy $215,070 from 68 recent sales. The cheapest one went for $77,000, while the priciest soared to a wild $687,500.AdvertisementAdvertisementThat kind of price spread tells you just how much rarity and condition matter. Early monospecchio cars like this one always get the spotlight, since Ferrari didn't make them for long before switching to the twin-mirror setup. And if you've got a Euro-market car that's still in original spec, expect the bids to climb even higher.1986 Ferrari TestarossaBring a TrailerWith only 37,000 kilometers (that's about 23,000 miles), this Testarossa is firmly in the low-mileage club. The auction kicked off at $25,000, and there's still plenty of time left, so don't expect it to stay anywhere near that number. If recent sales are anything to go by, this one's just getting started.Condition and DetailsUnder the rear deck sits Ferrari's 4.9-liter flat-12, hooked up to a five-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip diff.

Styled by Pininfarina, it introduced the dramatic side strakes, wide rear bodywork, and flat-12 layout that became synonymous with the brand during that era. It was also one of the fastest production cars of its time, blending grand touring comfort with genuine exotic-car performance.1986 Ferrari TestarossaBring a TrailerEarly Testarossas have built up a cult following, and the monospecchio cars are the ones everyone wants.
