Ferrari’s has always tried to put their racing technology into their production cars. In the early 1970s, the flat 12 “Boxer” technology used in the early 1970s Ferrari Formula One and Ferrari 312 PB Sports racers found its way into Ferrari’s flagship 12-cylinder sports cars, the 365 GT4 BB (“Berlinetta Boxer”) and the 365's successor, the 512 BB/BBi.
The Ferrari 512 BBi also commonly referred to as the Ferrari Boxer due to its flat-12 Boxer-style or flat V-12 engine. During10-year production run of the 512 BBi there were 3 variations. While all three models may look similar they were indeed very different from each other in numerous ways. The Ferrari boxer family was first introduced in 1973 with the 365 GT4/BB, standing for Berlinetta Boxer, it was a successor to our personal favorite car the Ferrari Daytona. in 1976, the Ferrari 512 BB was born, based off the 365 BB. It received numerous upgrades, including a wider rear track, a lower front air dam, a wider, longer body, NACA ducting for the rear brakes and a slightly lengthened tail section. The final version of the Ferrari Boxer family was the Ferrari 512 BBi which was introduced in 1983. The "i" in the name indicates that the model was now fuel injected.
