In 1966 the Ferrari 330 GTC was unveiled at the Geneva Salon. The GTC stood for Gran Turismo Coupe and was a union of the 275 GTB chassis and the engine from the 330 GT.

The GTS is a combination of a 400 Super America and a 275 GTS.
One Ferrari that was not trying to be anything more than the best gran turismo in the world was the 330 GTC.

The 330 GTC complemented the more pedestrian 330 GT 2+2 with dramatic two-seat coachwork by Pininfarina and an improved torque tube driveline. Built on the short 2,400 mm wheelbase for the 275 GTB and fitted with fully independent suspension with unequal A-arms (both front and rear) and a transaxle, the 330 GTC was as rewarding to drive as Ferrari's designers had intended, winning rave reviews from both journalists and experienced drivers such as Paul Frere.

The rigid single-unit drive-train required only four mounts, two on the 3,967-cc 300-horsepower engine and two on the 5-speed transaxle, and contributed to an exceptionally strong and quiet automobile, ideally suited to the 330 GTC's place in Ferrari's model lineup as a luxurious two-seat coupe with performance, responsiveness and handling that nearly equaled the berlinettas.

Contributing to the 330 GTC's success was Pininfarina's understated but stylish coachwork, which combined the dramatic nose and air intake of the 500 Superfast with the 275 GTS's sharply defined and very modern tail. Set atop the body is a light and thin-pillared greenhouse with abundant glass offering visibility that contributes to the 330 GTC's reputation as a driver's car. Pininfarina's blending of these seemingly disparate themes was masterfully accomplished, and resulted in a design that remains - 40 years after its introduction at the 1966 Geneva Auto Show - fresh, clean and distinctive.

After a successful racing career, and being manager of racing for ALFA Romeo, Enzo Ferrari began building his own cars in Modena, Italy in 1947. The racing success and the limited production of Ferrari have made them one of the most desirable and collectable cars ever.

Only 330 GTS were built in 1967; 1968 production was 100 cars.

The coachwork is by Pininfarina. The engine in the 330 develops 300 horsepower from a 3907cc displacement V shaped 12-cylinder block.

Acceleration times were 0 to 60 in 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 146 mph were very good for the time (1967-68).
The Ferrari 330 series was produced from 1963 through 1968. They were replacements for the Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 with many of the series retaining the style and mechanical components of their predecessors.

The front-engined, rear-wheel drive vehicle were powered by a derivative of the 400 Superamerica's four-liter Colombo 12-cylinder engine.

The first in the series was the 330 America, which was actually a 250 with a new engine. During its production lifespan, lasting only a year, 50 examples were produced of the 2+2 sports car.

The 330 GT 2+2 was introduced to the public at the 1964 Brussels Motor Show, built as a replacement for the 330 America. The 330 GT 2+2 is unique in that it provided ample seating for four individuals plus luggage. These were the ultimate road-going, practical sports cars that could be used for every-day transportation. The 330 GT 2+2 was a new product, not just an engine modification. Under the hood was a Tipo 209, twelve-cylinder engine capable of producing 300 horsepower. Disc brake were placed on all four corners to provided the stopping power. The 1964 model used a four-speed manual gear box with overdrive. The 1965 version, known as the Series II, received a 5-speed manual gearbox. Other changes included alloy wheels, dual-light front clip, and optional power steering and air conditioning.

The 330 GT 2+2 was produced from 1963 through 1968. Around 1080 models were produced of the 330 GT with 50 of them being Type 330 GTE Americas.

The 330 was a replacement for the 275. The shortened wheelbase and independent rear suspension was courtesy of its predecessor. The GTC (Gran Turismo Coupe) Pininfarina designed vehicle was debuted in 1966 at the Geneva Auto Show. It had a V-12 engine mounted in the front that was capable of producing 300 horsepower. The five-speed manual gearbox was located in the rear transaxle.

The 330 GTS (Gran Turismo Spyder) was shown in October 1966 at the Paris Auto Show.

There were around 600 coupes and 100 spyders produced during the production lifespan. In 1968 they were replaced by the 365 GTC/4 Daytona.
