    Hello,
    I saw in a cars newspaper what the last 512 TR models were equiped with a power steering. These models are the most wanted by collectionors. I think is a mistake, the last model, have ABS, since october 93.
    Is anyone can confirm or infirm?
    And, what about 512M, power steering or not?

    If I recall correctly they changed the steering ratio to make it easier to steer at slow speeds, but never power steering.

    no power steering... on 512's... ABS yes.. on 94 models...

    Ferrari introduced power steering on the F355 in 1995 from what I can remember.

    I thought that the earlier GTC 2+2 had a power steering system? I heard that some adapted it to the Daytona - Or, maybe I was misinformed.

    365 GTC/4 - 1970-74 (490 produced and sold over those years) had power steering. Engine and transmission are fundamentally the same as the 365 GTB/4 (Daytona), hence some people adapted the C4 power steering to the Daytona.
