Ferrari 365 GTC/4: The Practical Performance GT
1971-1972 | SN14179-SN16289 | 500 Built | The Most Livable Ferrari 365
When Ferrari unveiled the 365 GTC/4 in 1971, critics dismissed its styling as controversial, too sharp, too wedge-shaped, too aggressive for a grand touring coupe. Today, collectors recognize what those initial reviewers missed: the GTC/4 represents Ferrari’s most practical and livable 365 model, combining genuine V12 performance with real-world usability.
Ferrari produced only 505 examples of the GTC/4 between 1971 and 1972, making it considerably rarer than the iconic Daytona while offering something its famous sibling couldn’t: genuine rear seats, standard air conditioning, power steering, and a more compliant suspension suitable for extended grand touring. While the Daytona prioritized maximum performance, the GTC/4 delivered a more balanced proposition, a Ferrari you could actually drive daily without compromise.
The 365Ferrari registry documents these remarkable machines, preserving their specifications, ownership histories, and the stories of the 505 examples built during Ferrari’s brief two-year production run.

Ferrari 365 GTC/4 History
The Ferrari 365 GTC/4 (Type F101) is a 2+2 grand tourer produced by Ferrari from 1971 to 1972. It was based on the chassis of the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 “Daytona”, and in the very short two-year production run, 505 examples of the GTC/4 were produced. Its chassis and drivetrain, however, were carried over mostly unaltered (apart from a wheelbase stretch to provide more satisfying rear seat room) on its successor, the 1972 365 GT4 2+2.
