CAVALLINO N.271

Prestigiosa rivista bimestrale, in inglese, interamente dedicata alla Ferrari.

A partire dal numero 250, Cavallino è tutta nuova. Più pagine, più editoriali, più foto, con la stessa splendida attenzione ai dettagli.

• Main feature and cover car: 1967 Ferrari 275 N.A.R.T. Spyder s/n 09437. The first of only ten examples manufactured, s/n 09437 lived an amazing early life as a racer and movie star. One of just two specimens built with an alloy body, it debuted at the 12 Hours of Sebring with Dennis McClugage behind the steering wheel. Soon after, repainted in dark brown, it joined the cast of the movie The Thomas Crown Affair starring Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway. Its impact was so deep that, after filming ended, “the King of Cool” bought a 275 N.A.R.T. Spyder for himself. Now part of one of the most important Italian car collections, and enjoying a successful new career as a beauty queen at various concours of elegance, the car is carefully driven, maintained and preserved for future generations.
• Link to main feature: To better understand the people who helped 275 N.A.R.T. Spyder s/n 09437 become the star it is, we dig into the lives and historical significance in the car world of Denise McCluggage and Steve McQueen, who both shared professional experiences with this car.
• Profile: 1989 328 GTS s/n 83136. A wonderfully preserved 328 GTS, s/n 83136 is also the very last unit of this successful series, leaving the Maranello factory in October 1989. Sold in Switzerland, where it spent the first part of its life, it then moved to France before entering a Belgian collection. As a young man, its current caretaker had driven a 328 GTB as his everyday car, and ever since, despite owning several other Ferraris, he had always missed it. This feature celebrates the whole 328 series in its 40th anniversary year.
• Eventi: Cavallino Classic Middle East is only six years old, but already a well-established tradition for Ferrari lovers in the UAE region. Hosted at Casa Ferrari during the last F1 weekend of the season, it is the place to be to enjoy Italian style, food and cars. Indeed, an amazing display of classic Ferraris, mostly youngtimers, lined up as candidates for the Best of Show awards—yes, awards in the plural: one for the Granturismo category and the other for Competition cars. This event showcases some truly unique pieces that cannot be seen anywhere else in the world. To wrap up its racing season, Ferrari organizes the Finali Mondiali, where the GT competitors from all over the world come together to fight it out for the overall titles. But the event is much more than just a weekend of racing. It is also a celebration—a gathering of racing Ferraris like no other in the world. This year held at the Mugello race track, it saw the participation of F1s, 499Ps and numerous classics too.
• F1: 2026 will be a revolutionary year in F1, with - for the first time ever - new rules deeply impacting the chassis aerodynamics and engine. The challenge to create the next winning car is on, and we analyze every single detail of what that car will look like. It’s impossible not to notice how little will be left unchanged. Definitely a new start, so here’s hoping...
• Focus on: Stean Johansson is one of only around 100 drivers ever to have raced a Ferrari in F1. He did so in 1985 and 1986, and here he shares his memories, anecdotes, as well as the story of how, after also racing outside F1 for some years—including a victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans—he reinvented himself as a painter. A fast one of course…
• Corsa: In this column, we bring you up to date with the final races of the 2025 F1 and WEC seasons.
• Link to Corsa: We asked Ferrari’s Global Head of Endurance and Corse Clienti, Antonello Coletta, to reveal his secrets and share his feelings after winning the Hypercar World Championship. He wrote his piece just hours after Race 8, in Bahrain, where the Ferrari team he leads took the World Championship—a title Maranello had been waiting for since 1972, 53 long years…

Finally, as always, Cavallino brings you the voices of several editorialists, discussing a variety of topics, as well as a full and updated list of Ferrari market values (also of the latest models) compiled by specialists analyzing the values and market trends of different Ferrari cars.
