Here's Why The Ferrari 456 GTA Is A V12 Bargain | Ferrari 456 GTA Review | DriveHub
The Ferrari 456 GTA may have had a hefty price tag when new, but now you can pick up a Ferrari 456 for a (somewhat) reasonable amount. Today I review the Ferrari 456 GTA and show you the ins and outs of a now reasonably priced Ferrari.

#Ferrari #456GTA #Ferrari456

[@canto_v12]

The 456 is quite possibly the best-looking 4-seater that Ferrari ever built. Every model afterwards has had some bad angles--not this one. This is one of relatively few videos that does the 456 engine note justice, nicely done.

[@michaelcalkins8648]

Not a stock exhaust. In keeping with the GT nature of the car, the stock exhaust is very subdued.

[@tobynevitte554]

The 456 is a fantastic car to enjoy alone or with friends. They do look great, and are not expensive to keep up relative to other prestige marques. Highly recommended

[@neilhurt1992]

Excellent video dude! I owned a 456GTM in the best colour (blue TDF) few years ago , after a couple of 328GTBs, a 360 Modena and an F355 Berlinetta. Just wanted to get into a front-engined V12 before I shuffled off my mortal coil...The car was a 2000 model-year with only 24000 miles on the clock. My wife (who hated the 355) actually 'quite' liked it as it was very comfortable and smooth. I know you're a tall American, but I could get in the back without a problem with the driver's seat set up for me. Amazing, if underrated, Ferrari and you can still get them over here in the UK for sensible (for a Ferrari!) money. Now slumming it in a 1986 BMW 635CSi and a 1996 Porsche 993...Keep up the good work, cheers from a rather chilly Otford, Kent , UK.

[@mamba4l560]

How did you like the 360 and F355, I'm looking at both and wondering how reliable they are fron someone that has owned one and not random people on the internet

[@neilhurt1992]

@@mamba4l560 Crikey, I'd forgotten all about that post (well, it was 6 months ago...). 360 vs 355 eh? From a purely personal viewpoint I preferred the 355, principally because of the way it looks, not just one of the prettiest Ferraris, but one of the prettiest cars - period. It also sounds like an old-school F1 car when you give it some welly. The 360 is a bigger car both lengthwise and widthwise and feels it. In terms of pure performance there isn't much in it, the 355 gives away about 20bhp to the 360 but is a tad lighter. The key difference between them comes along every 3 years when you have to dig deep into your wallet for the belt service on the 355 - engine out and 22 hours labour (ouch). The belts on the 360 are doable with the engine in situ - much kinder to your bank account! In terms of reliability, apart from routine maintenance and the odd bit here and there neither car left me stranded or failed to start. In conclusion, I enjoyed them both but kept the 355 for over 10 years which probably tells you which one I preferred. Cheers from a gloriously sunny Otford, Kent, UK.

[@Ang3lUki]

It's truly my dream Ferrari. People don't understand the cozy, comfortable calling of the 2+2 GT.

[@itsnevo8757]

I bought my 456 in 2017 for $38,000. Occasionally you see them still popping up in the low $40,000’s but they are an incredible deal for a V12 Ferrari. Probably the last V12 Ferrari you’ll ever find for under $100,000 in great condition

[@trombulan]

I remember i had a BBurago 1:24 model of it as a kid. It was given to me without one rear wheel but i was so excited that i felt like it was almost real. Such an elegant yet sporty car! The dark blue is spot on just like cherry colored one. Really like that Ferrari era cars like the 550 Maranello but this has extra 2 kid seats and that GT vibe to it. Thanks for posting.

[@Tential1]

This spec you drove looks amazing.... I love this.

[@Tential1]

I still can't believe how few of these 4 doors ferrari sold. These things are the top end of luxury. Having a sports car is nice. But man. This type of car, having it along with a sports car means you really made it. Front engined ferraris are just truly ridiculous cars in a good way.

[@ingocernohorsky]

Not 4 door, but 4 seats

[@michaelreed8540]

Great review The 458 is a hidden gem!

[@andybroer651]

I DO like your review 🙂 keep them coming!

[@terryboston3292]

Cool Fact about pop up headlights, which look no way cooler than on Ferrari of course, Anyways, they will never ever fade from Sunlight, and they will never get covered with road Dirt.

[@SgtJackyBoy2150]

If your gonna buy an “affordable” Ferrari we are getting to the era of that sexy style of them! Very jealous you got to drive one! Keep up the great work

[@DriveHub]

Thanks Andrew! It was really special to get to drive one for sure 🙏

[@Tential1]

612 and 456 are my current dream cars.

[@ExecutiveAutomotiveSociety]

It’s an amazing car for sure when it comes to price. I had a chance to buy one in 2010 and I should’ve bought it.

[@benmolloy8828]

What are the wheels? They look great on it

[@Pawnsylvania]

The name 456 is actually the cubic centimeters of displacement divided by 12. 5,472 cubic centimeters rounds up to 5.5 liters. Ferrari used to use this formula for naming their cars all the time.

[@nestorjrabalos1998]

This, along with F355 and 550 Maranello are my favourite Ferraris of all time.

[@kevinrobinson8618]

Excellent video!

[@DriveHub]

Thanks brotha! 🕺

[@badourcrou9501]

Hy, this car is fantastic, mine is a manual gearbox...it's a dream to ride with the V12... Comfort, sound, roadholding... Even the maintenance is not too expensive if you do a bit yourself.

[@antonioromano9963]

Great review

[@adrianharper5015]

I have the exact same car, year colour and trim colour. Had it for ten years now and it still feels special in every way, I love it. You did get the production numbers back to front. They only made 403 GT (6 speed gated manuals) the rest are GTA's.( 4 speed automatic) I haven't driven the six speed but it would be amazing as the auto is only a 4 speed and there is a big gap between gears. The manuals are now worth a fortune if you can find one. Really liked your review, well done from Australia.

[@donjuan150]

Love those pop ups and rear tail lights!

[@guidoinperu]

Love of my life, this car.... Came out when I was twelve and became even prettier when I turned 18! Dream about it like every week; hope to drive one, one day!! Or a ride with you Adrian; if ever in my life I get to Australia!! (probably just as improbable as driving a 456 ever, haha!) Keep on dreaming :-) Enjoy it for the rest of us Adrian!

[@RobertRedford77]

456 NOT developed during Schumacher era, started in early 1989, launched Sep 1992. Schumacher joined Ferrari late Nov 1995 for the 1996 season.

[@lancraft]

456 cc’s PER CYLINDER

[@andybroer651]

Great color combo and a lovely car, not a bad angle on it IMHO, however, I needed useable rear seats so I bought a Maserati GranTurismo S which can seat adults in the rear seats, has about the same power and 6 speeds so 0-60 and 1/4 mile are quicker and faster. It also looks great and can be had for 1/2 the price than a 2nd hand 456. 🔱🔱🔱 Win Maserati!!

[@ecoron2721]

Have you been hitting the gym hard - you are looking HUGE!

[@stillsearching1284]

If it was red, it would be perfect. I actually don't know how to drive a manual, so I don't mind that it's an auto.

[@PlugInRides]

Tyler Hoover, of Hoovie's Garage has a 1994 456 GT, with the gated manual, that he even used in a Car Trek challenge. It also started life in Japan, and then was imported after spending some time in Dubai. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmGxc5h5d55nqLc

[@Joey856721]

Is this car unreliable or need engine out service?

[@PlugInRides]

@@Joey856721 It's a Ferrari, so it's going to be unreliable, but they are not as hard to work on as the mid-engine cars. The flip side is that they are V-12s, so that raises the parts needed for a tune up, and to disassemble for repairs. V-12s are just more expensive to service, but the engine does not need to come out during the major service on a 456. A "major" service usually means belts and tensioners, plenum hoses, cam shaft o-rings....The electrical systems were unreliable. Ferraris now brag of 1960's American V-8 reliability, with engines that will last an average of 80,000 miles before needing a rebuild. There are C5 and C6 Corvettes, running over 200K on their original LS engines, and Toyotas lasting +300K. The other problem is that these cars are often not driven enough for fear of racking up too much mileage, so their seals dry out, and a 25K mile car can need a ton of work. People fear high mileage so much, that these cars can go to seed from disuse.

[@DriveHub]

Woah no way I had no idea! That’s awesome!

[@adelinrapcore]

Spitting the truth at 2:20

[@sfneurosurgeon]

I’ve have my eye on these to buy for a weekly driver. I was in college when the 456 came out. The gated shifter will add another 100k to the price. The only knock against the 456 is the exhaust note isn’t as intoxicating as the other Ferraris of the era.

[@pmwaffle9348]

Not another 100k, closer to 100k even.

[@nestorjrabalos1998]

2:53 😂 what? Get it right dude. That thing’s engine couldn’t be just 456 cc. What do you think of it a motorcycle?

[@aiassistantltd2230]

Did you really compare a Ferrari with a Chevy? Lmao

[@bigbuckeye76]

Wonder if that is an “engine out” service car…pretty sure it is…..and that’s a pass

[@enzorari]

That V12 does not need an ‘engine out’ service since all is very good accessible

[@canto_v12]

The front engine cars do not need to get the engines dropped. The belts are accessible because they are on the front end.

[@oler777]

You should ls7 swap it then it would be faster

[@michaelcalkins8648]

Yes, my LS7 ZO6 was a little faster, but my 456M GTA drives sooo much better it wasn’t even a contest. The faster the Vette went the more “on edge” it felt. The Ferrari thrives above 100 mph and gives a feeling of ultimate stability. Guess which one is still in my garage today?

[@oler777]

@@michaelcalkins8648 I don’t care because if you’re going over 100 miles an hour every day you should be in jail and I don’t believe you owned either of them. You don’t have any videos and you just have your word so I believe you have a Toyota Corolla your garage

[@jr6332]

The last ferrari I've owned, complete let down. I owned a Bentley cont GT immediately after a CL600 before and both put the 456 to shame. It was beautiful though.

[@Desertduleler_88]

Bastard of an engine to work on, ppi and fsh mandatory before considering buying one.

[@MrElnuno]

Don't be fooled. You may be able to buy a 456 for $50k, but you'll spend that amount again over 5 years of ownership. Maintenance will be ruinous.

[@dfender7492]

Agreed! I had that exact same speced 456M GTA, year 2002, and sold it for 80 EUR in 2019. So, if in good order, they are still costly. Average maintenance cost were around 5000 EUR per 10'000 km.

[@Mike__P]

My Chrysler 200 is faster. Amazing how far cars have come in 20 years.

[@Maddog494]

One doesn’t buy a 456 for speed though.

[@michaelcalkins8648]

Faster to what, 15 mph? 50 mph? The 456 is a car designed to cross countries at extreme speeds in supreme comfort. When your 200 is out of breath my 456 is just hitting its stride. Unless you have actually driven both cars (I have), don’t embarrass yourself by making stupid comparisons.

[@Mike__P]

@@michaelcalkins8648 cross country? More like garage queen.

[@RobertRedford77]

[@87ferrarif40]

The 456 sucks.😂

[@dfender7492]

Sure! You had one? Which year? How many mile made?

[@dfender7492]

The 456 is the so called Gentleman Ferrari. Maybe, you are not a gentleman?

[@matthewf9500]

Think they’ll let me make payments?

[@RobertRedford77]

Money pit. All cars now need valve guides x48, engine mounts, all bushes front and rear, clutch,/bearings, flywheels, air con fix is 7k on this alone. £25k to sort it for the next 30 yrs.

[@dfender7492]

That's 1'200 per year?! I'll buy it! But only a 456M (modificato). So no valve guides, no clutch as it is Automatic, ....
