1991 Ferrari Testarossa - One Take

[@eighty_eight]

This car is timeless .

[@tylercouture216]

008 008 like everything back then

[@GL0BETREKKER]

I feel it's the embodiment of the 80's actually. But i love it!

[@AlastorTheNPDemon]

You want shitty fashion? Visit the 70s. I swear, folks back then wore vomit.

[@Baerchenization]

Actually it is TOTALLY 80s, not timeless.

[@trackah123]

The design on the outside doesn't feel 80's, even if i look at it in 2017, the interiour however is 80's :)

[@stefan1924]

Harry from Harry's Garage made a trip from England to Morocco in a Testarossa. I'd suggest that video to anyone, it's an awesome trip.

[@NESherv]

Also just any episode of Miami Vice, seasons three or four.

[@stefan1924]

GuinnessandPizza That is the one I mean. Morocco has parts of the Sahara.

[@milkshake1993]

u have shown me a great channel thank you!!

[@spencerabaker]

He also drove down to the south of France with a pair of fold-up bikes on the rear "shelf", dropped them off at his boat, then returned with an outboard motor in the frunk. Aside from some heater woes, it went well, reliable.

[@bicyclist2]

He carried a small outboard boat motor in the front of his Testarossa and a folding bicycle in that video.

[@MindfulMusic]

They've aged well during the years, I love the look of 'em.

[@MrGaryGG48]

I had the opportunity in 1992 to put about 5-600 miles on an '89 model and it was Wonderful!!!!! I always chuckled about the folks who griped about the steering wheel position and claimed that the Italian men must have arms like orangutans. There's nothing wrong with the steering wheel... you just drive it by holding the bottom half and ignore your high school drivers ed teacher who insisted that you had to be at "10 & 2." They didn't know what they were talking about. This car was soooo much fun to drive! It's definitely a "broad-assed Ferrari" but I managed to back it into our showroom every night thanks to those electric mirrors. The '86 car at the Paris Auto Show would have been terrible with the single mirror mounted up high on the left. I still have a photograph of it sitting in my garage one night because I was certain that would be the ONLY opportunity to get that picture! I took a friend for a ride in it and we weren't out of the parking lot before she started off with, "oh jeez, I'd go straight to jail if I had one of these!!!!" Then she loved it! It looked spectacular, it drove stupendously, and if you didn't have to pay for the maintenance it was an incredible amount of fun to drive. The "$20,000 clutch replacement" could put a bit of a ding in your enthusiasm though!!!

Hot cars dont age

[@billybrooks7845]

It made me watch Miami Vice!

[@jaxxbrat2634]

Gary Goodlund 20k for fools..

[@Fluterra]

Mindful Music unfortunately, good maintenance doesn’t have anything to do with a gearbox failure

[@AaronHendu]

This and the Countach were the "poster cars" of my child hood. I am still in love with both of them, and wouldn't care if they drove like turds.

[@oldcarproblems3332]

yup, I don't care if they're turds, either. want both.

[@XZagatoX]

Probably just exaggerations. Doubt they "drove like turds"

[@AaronHendu]

I doubt it too, I just saying I don't care if they do.

[@GunsNBudder]

I had a silver 959 on my wall, all my friends had Countach and Testarossa.

[@Diabolos1]

You should check out Harry Metcalfe's channel here on KZbin. It's called Harry's garage. He owns a Testarossa and a Countach. There's videos of him driving them across Europe and giving detailed reviews. Apparently they are both delightful to drive when they get up to speed. The Countach is more of a workout but still very rewarding to drive.

[@maxxjettfilms6322]

why hello gated shifter, nice to see you.

[@tylercouture216]

maxxjett films definitely

[@GiulioImparato]

gated shifter my old frend, i've come to shift with you again, Because of gear changes soo crispy Left its seeds while I was driving And that mechanical feel that was planted in my brain Still remains, Within the pleasure , of a gated shifter

[@oldcarproblems3332]

exactly

[@squidwardshouse67]

That's what my gf says when she sees mine. Except I don't have a gf.

[@KevsUploads]

Yup!

[@horsepower523]

Just imagine cruising in a Testarossa in the 80's. How cool and badass that must've been. I can just imagine people's mouths dropping wide open in awe when one of these beauties passed by.

[@masterkane5340]

It's cool asf now lmao

[@Windrammer]

Imagine doing coke in this car

[@360fanboy360]

timeless shit fr

[@waitwuttt]

only time id wanna do coke

[@elianpz]

Im sure something on those cars that came out at that time, the TR and the Countach have a specific coke detail on them, maybe the dash has a flat spot for teh lines or somethig? lol just day dreaming

[@anthonydeluca6966]

elianpz I'm pretty sure it does have a secret compartment you can hide drugs or whatever in

[@esaedvik]

If you did a test on the cars, I'm pretty sure a lot of them would turn out with tons of coke in them :D

[@lonememe]

The owner is really chill! I like this guy a lot, and I want to be his friend. It's unfortunate that the douchey luxury mark owners really give the crowd a bad name.

[@jonm4337]

[@the-boring-car-guy]

Agreed

[@philc4520]

💯% agree. He’s a cool cat.

[@rafaelmendez8588]

Completely agree. This owner is cool. As a Porsche collector, I bought my first Ferrari recently and quickly did I notice how douchey they are.

[@nathant2414]

Just finished my morning dump. So today I'll enjoy a fresh One Take with a donut instead

[@jts400hp]

Joe Black Real car guys dump and eat doughnuts at the same time! Save the manuals!!

[@ImLeuff]

Haven't watched it yet, already know this is the best car featured on this channel since ever

[@НИИВВ]

Countach more epic and legendary!

[@fokjohnpainkiller]

Leuff Not even close.

[@phoenixrising7047]

Another weirdo commenting first before watching it....

[@oldcarproblems3332]

I tend to agree...

[@deathcab4booty]

excuse me, but the drive by shots on the F355 >>>>> all

[@rocketn8]

Matt always seems to smile most in a Ferrari. Same could be said for other car journalists. Damn I wanna drive a Ferrari.

[@phillipberk5767]

Whittle Moore it's An amazing experience, my girlfriends brother has a 430 with straight pipes!, and as much as I love driving the viper and such, something about the Ferrari is just so amazing, different experience

[@baileybrewer1172]

"Granny shiftin', not double clutchin' like ya should." Haha! Great video Matt

[@justin2024atlas]

375 hp used to sound like so much power 😂

[@Christobevii3]

It still is in a light vehicle. What is scary is a f150 single cab ecoboost tuned run's 12's...

[@laolvle]

JM 74 now there are 300hp motorcycles

[@andrewhackney6286]

375hp is more power than the absolute vast majority of drivers can even cope with. It's plenty.

[@twatstabber]

It's 380 us spec 390 euro spec

[@twatstabber]

@@Christobevii3 1st Gen testarossa are 3660lbs not exactly light.

[@MarioFunk]

If I could have 1/10th of Matt's happiness in this video, I think I'd never have a bad day again.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Even though this is technically a better car, I still prefer the sexy 80s stylings of the Ferrari 308 (Magnum PI car) to the Testarossa

[@VAX1970]

This guy now needs a new gearbox after Matt driving it :)

[@larsinteriors9348]

Vax Buster and a new seat after Matt came on it

[@bbjnimens]

Matt. Thank you. I have critized your pre-show infomercials in the past here in these comments. But today I learned usefull and relevant info about DashLink. ... and briefly... good work. Joe.

[@PhaQ2]

I could listen to that engine all day long. It really is musical.

[@caspforge]

can't imagine how Matt feels whenever he crunches a gear on a classic car that's super expensive if he breaks it.

[@ughatjsp1]

zaron z it makes me wonder what he did wrong to make that happen, it sounded like all the gears were shifting fine in every other point of the vid. Either way if it was me driving I'd be cringing and probably beet red and if I owned the car I'd probably feel the same

[@2W3X4YZ5]

tyler barker Im going with a combination of not being familiar with the car, and poorly executed rev matching on 4-3-2 downshifts.

[@alphaetomega]

They do that sometimes, not his fault. The gearbox was probably not as warm as it would like. Gear oil quality and weight plays a huge role in how well these cars shift.

[@2W3X4YZ5]

Avidity 101 I agree. But before he turns the key he he should know the things we do. Never driven a TR, but I do know about getting the trans warm before going hard. I thought he just drove it quite a distance in 3 and 4, definitely at a good clip too. Way enough to be to operating temp. IMO @8:40 it sounded like he downshifted at too high RPM. That's what made her angry. I cringed every time he shifted to fourth after the first crunch. And he definitely shouldnt have reached for fifth, because thats too high a gear for that stretch of road. Again, just my opinion.

[@deedub429]

That nervous little laugh at 8:40 😄

[@bryanhallman8183]

[@jbsvault]

Could you integrate something like a "Motor Minute"? In which no one speaks but the engine/car for about a minute (with corners, down- and upshifting, full rev cycle etc.). Not that I mind you or others talking, on the contrary, I really like your videos. But letting engines (and car) roar and be able to hear it as a viewer (most likely not ever being able to drive such specimens or other great cars on this channel) would be fantastic. Where applicable of course, I imagine that certain cars would not be that interesting audio wise. Thank you for all the great content Matt (and team), I've been watching it with much enjoyment over the years.

[@ThePieman911]

Holy shit, you advertised something that I actually think is really cool. I'm going to have to pick one of those up!

[@Webby2point0]

This was the first Ferrari I ever saw in person as a kid and ever since then it's been my favorite (depending on what day you ask me) Ferrari of all time.

[@stlblues1000]

"King of the 80's"

[@NoBrakes23]

That would be the Countach. The Testarossa isn't even the king of 80's Ferraris. Maybe king of 85-87, but the 308 ruled the first half of the decade, and in 87 the F40 made sure no Testarossa would ever grace my wall again.

[@andeleputo89]

just shutup.

[@777jones]

Ehhh I was there too, Testarossa was definitely king, there is more than one king in the world.

[@eaglefat9398]

king of what? a C4 corvette would destroy this thing on a track, and has the same 0-60 5.5sec

[@NoBrakes23]

King of posters that you buy at the mall and hang in your bedroom above your Commodore 64. No one was talking about raw performance. #magicalsoundshower

[@mitchellkohrmann]

I just bought an 89 recently. I was always hesitant being scared the driving experience would disappoint. This video cleared up that though! What a machine this is. Fun fact, my car was purchased new in Columbia, that really drives home the stereotype attributed with these!

[@garf117]

That horn!!! I'd take that over hella horns any day of the week.

[@mnemonicabyss]

Sounds like a fun novelty, actually really dangerous in practicality. My last car had a quiet feminine horn, you could not hear it under speed whatsoever. Regardless of how much I honk, I could not get the attention of somebody in an emergency situation.

[@virid6819]

why would you ever want a horn that ineffective and quiet

[@Starky513]

Matt That pre-drive ad was probably the coolest product you have featured yet. Pretty sure I'll be getting one!

[@mynameisphil401]

150$ for that or 30$ that I spent a year ago on a OBD2 bluetooth adapter and the complete Torque Pro app...

[@NorthernUnion13]

MyNameIsPhil from what I saw in the video the GUI looked exactly like Dash Command which I use.

[@NorthernUnion13]

Art Vandelay it's just the Dash Command app.

[@phoenixrising7047]

Yep 50 bucks 3 years ago and whole Torque app worked a treat here.

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

i even saw them going for 7$ on ebay

[@Nujabesme]

You should all buy thoose things! One Port of the ODB2 is directly connected to the 12V+, so this device is online all the Time. Makes it very easy to connect to this thing and deactivate the Alarm/open the doors (y)

[@johnforeman634]

I own a manual 360 spider that I absolutely love. Previously I had a 92 348 for 16 years and I thought it was an awesome car. It ran and sounded beautiful. Maybe I got lucky, I don’t know.

ah the Sega Masters Out Run car. who didnt luv it?!!!

[@Indiscriminance]

That flat 12 sounds absolutely SUBLIME. I never knew. Thanks Matt.

[@bigbossegoroff]

Miami Vice, 2017 !!!

[@esaedvik]

Fun fact: early Miami Vice Ferrari's were replicas (Ferrari declined their request for authentic ones) and Ferrari sued the show for it.

[@hockuspockus911]

Esa Edvik made from corvettes! still had the chevy logo in the headrests

[@williamgson4055]

Only the Daytona was a replica. The show creators and Ferrari made an agreement to destroy the Daytona in the show to replace it with a real Testarossa instead of being sued for the fake Daytona.

[@AlexiaVon]

Esa Edvik Ferrari gave them a Free Testarossa when they found out the Daytona was a fake.

[@camryt]

Awesome car with the perfect exterior/interior combo, driven by a cool owner, who understands it. That guy is great, kudos to you, Sir, for letting the rest of the world experience it. And may it remain reliable!

[@dannybose]

Oh, wow! I got goosebumps allover! Great reactions and conversation about this legend! Amazing! I keep thinking that, when I feel in love with this car back in the 90', not a lot of people ware so enthusiastic abut it as i was. To put it into perspective and the feels that I had and honestly still have, every time I get to see drive and hear about this car is very hard. It's like a child getting the best present of his live and just spill the beans about everything with the most enthusiastic attitude and a perfectly satisfying stretched smile across his face! Thank you so much Matt! This was a real treat! PS. F**k! The owner was right! It is like seeing your ex on the street! :)))

Been there, neighbour from bragging hell and a douche bag to boot. But then again we’d tease him that his wife bangs the help... by his reaction we guessed that may have struck a cord 😬

[@ottomondo1368]

The most fun I have had driving was a 512TR which was a refined version of the orig TR. Better shifts, a load more power. The best thing was the non-power steering and the sound. The sound is music. The worse is the impossible driving position. I am too tall, and have too large feet for it, but what a great ride. Thanks for sharing. Double clutching was not a bad idea for the 512TR. Great video.

[@TheStallion234]

Does anyone know why you don't find cars with gated shifters anymore? Can you put one in aftermarket?

[@stough77]

Haven't even got thru the first 30 seconds and I am sold on the Dashlink! That is awesome..

[@phoenix-mods]

Absolutely love the Testarossa, that sound is glorious... Personally I prefer the 512TR. But both are *far* better than the F512M... That thing looks a mess, talk about ruin a classic!

[@JAnx01]

I'm having a really bad day, but that engine sound made me smile. Thank you!

[@armchairracer007]

Matt, was it better than the manual F355 or manual F430?

No but they're different beasts

[@theejoeylee]

Matt ,I just gotta tell ya I LOVE how early you upload. First thing before i start working is i watch one of your One Takes. Helps start my day. Thanks man!

[@MrRandomcommentguy]

It's a 180 degree V12, not a flat 12, as the opposing pairs of con rods share crank pins. Testarossa myth #1: The Width. A Lamborghini Countach is substantially wider, as are most modern pickup trucks. Testarossas tend to be a bit cheaper than most older Ferraris because they use cam belts which need frequent replacement (every 3 years or so) which is at least 30 hours of labor and requires the engine to come out. Maintenance costs on Testarossas are crazy which has tended to hurt resale values. They may be relatively cheap by Ferrari standards but you still have to be pretty wealthy to run one.

[@ruk2023--]

The width is a myth wrapped in a truth. In my understanding the car isn't especially wide overall, it's the difference in width from front to back that can make it a bit of a handful in tight streets and other places. You also need to consider a bit of context. It's certainly not too wide for US roads but in Europe (where it was conceived and built) you could not drive anything bigger than a F150 comfortably so it is relatively speaking a much wider car here than in the US.

[@dwarf365]

180 degrees on a Protractor is a straight line. So tell me Mr smarty pants, why is it called a V? It's a Flat twelve, end of story.

[@BelviGER]

dwarf365 and a diesel and a gas engine are also basically the same so why make a difference between them, as both explode a liquid to make power does that sound stupid to you? because that's how you sound talking about 180° vs boxer/flat

[@transdayofrevenge]

Simon Coles it is most certainly a flat 12, it's just not to be confused with a subaru style flat engine aka "boxer". Flat != boxer but flat == 180 degree "v".

[@beatsByZlaja]

themangiant simon is correct, you and farrah are not. either way beautiful car and engine, thats whats important

[@whatfourtwo5277]

YEEAAAA THE ADS ARE BACK BABY!

[@MrGaryGG48]

Matt, I worked in a small shop in Northern California in the early '90s that sold, among other nice cars, used Ferraris. We had a 1989 Testarossa for about 6 months before I sold it. Your comments regarding the width still make me chuckle... I backed that thing into our show room to put it away each night through the double glass doors. The 1989 was a late enough model to have electric mirrors on both sides. The 1984 T/R was released at the Paris Auto Show and had only a single mirror mounted high on the left A-pillar. To be kind, that is one broad-assed-Ferrari!!! As much as I loved driving it, with no mirror on the right side, there would have been some REALLY expensive body-work in the near future! Aside from all that... there is nothing like the sound of going through a long tunnel with windows down, taching that thing to the redline and backing off before exiting the tunnel. I hate how this word has been so over-used, but it was AWESOME!!!!! ;^)

One of the true icons of the 80s, and an enduring symbol in its own right. Check out Harry Metcalfe's video of his drive across the Atlas mountains in northern Africa in his Testarossa, it almost looks more at home half-covered in sand than parked in front of the club. The car is an amazingly capable machine.

[@sergh8605]

Love the fact that if you listen to the podcast, you can hear Matt describing the driving experience and when you see the video, makes it more cohesive.

[@chriswinter5765]

I've driven the one that used to belong to Eric Clapton after the new owner brought it to Perth. Brought a tear to my eye for 2 reasons. 1) The realisation of a life long dream. 2) The realisation of a missed opportunity of not buying one when prices were right and I could have got one but was too scared. I am still eternally grateful to it's current owner for that brief moment in time. I will never forget it. I now keep telling myself that my tastes have changed and I'll be happy with a 360....which I will. But I'm kidding myself. The Testarossa was and always will be the dream for me.

[@MadMonroe90]

That is a 180 degree V12 not a flat engine. The two are not the same

[@MadMonroe90]

Before asking what is the difference between the two, here is a link in which it's explained: allaboutdieselz.blogspot.ro/2017/01/180-degree-v12-engine.html

[@RoverWaters]

what a stupid and wrong explanation! here's a better one: 512BB (berlinetta boxer) "boxer" = "flat engine"

[@MadMonroe90]

Rover Waters The pistons in a boxer engine are going in the opposite direction in the two cylinder banks (like in the picture in the link) while in a V12 (60, 90, 180 or whatever degree) are 2 up, 2 in the middle and 2 down. If you're still not convinced Google it or check Wikipedia, only in that case of course if you're not that kind of person who knows best no matter what :)

Mike Arredondo pretty sure that's the antenna, I haven't seen those in years, I forgot they even were a thing.

billy mccabe kinda annoying I thought they where dirt lines left from the wipers

I was getting ready to take a dump then saw this - now I'm painfully holding it while watching this. I couldn't wait, best car ever. Thanks Matt!

[@5abivt]

What a treat thanks to the owner for letting Matt review it and drive it like that (how it should be driven!). WHat an awesome sounding motor at high revvs. The later 512TR has been and is one of my favourite cars since a child (eclipsed only by the Enzo).

Steering wheel leather so important. Great to feel the joy watching this. Cheers from down under guys

[@ryanbrown918]

Love these cars. Direct competition for my '89 Callaway Twin Turbo. Always great seeing them. Very cool owner as well.

[@lazrhawk]

Cool car. Owner seems like a good dude. Always been more of a F40 guy as far as classic Ferrari's go, but this one is a gem.

[@mprinvale]

what a cool car! I love how excessively wide the rear end is. Classic 80's

[@ScottHillsmusclecargarage]

You are living a charmed life my friend. Good for you!

I think Matt is a bit confused about the flat 12 thing. I will try to clear it up for him and others that don't know. all boxers are flat engines but not all flat engines are boxers. the Ferrari flat 12 is a flat engine but not a boxer engine. a boxer engine has each piston on separate crank throws whereas a 180 degree v12 has two pistons per crank throw the same as other v engines. I hope this clears up some misunderstandings.

I've loved this car since I first saw it in the 80's. Thanks.
