Profile & significance

“Daytona” was never the official model name but became universal after Ferrari’s 1967 Daytona triumph. Front 4.390-liter V12 ≈352 hp, rear five-speed transaxle, independent suspension, ≈280 km/h. About 1,284 berlinettas were built. Current coupes generally $700,000–$1.2 million; alloy, plexiglass and major-provenance cars higher . Its cultural footprint is complicated by Miami Vice: the early TV “Daytona” was a Corvette-based replica, not a genuine 365 GTB/4.
