    Description
    Those in attendance at the 1967 Paris Motor Show witnessed the unveiling of the most opulent Ferrari grand tourer built to date – the 365 GT 2+2. Resplendent in Pininfarina coachwork blending influences from the 500 Superfast and the 330 GTC, the new 365 GT 2+2 was both longer and wider than its predecessor, with its sheer size earning it the nickname “Queen Mary” among English Ferrari fans; although I think the American press reffered to 2+2 as "Queen Mother". Housed under the softly sloping hood was a 4.4-liter, 320-horsepower version of the seasoned Colombo V12 working in conjunction with a new hydro-pneumatic self-leveling rear suspension system to guarantee a supremely comfortable driving experience. Luxury met functionality in the cabin, where standard power steering and electric windows as well as optional air conditioning and an abundance of opulent wood and leather embellishments created an ambiance of refined grandeur. Chassis number 11699, one of only 800 365 GT 2+2s produced over a five-year period, offers an opportunity for a new owner to experience its timeless blend of vintage style, performance, and comfort on many more long-distance journeys.

    Beautiful car. Absolutely gorgeous color.

    Small nit/detail - might want to correct the "Queen Mary" reference. It's "Queen Mother."

    From a Road and Track road test. The quote was, "The Queen Mother of all Ferraris."
    That's what I recall, for whatever it's worth.
    And yes- beautiful car. Good luck with the auction.
