This 1995 Ferrari 456 GT spent time in Japan before it was imported to the US through California in 1998, and it now shows 20k kilometers (~12k miles). The car remained registered in Connecticut from 2017 through the selling dealer’s purchase in 2026, and work in preparation for the sale included rebuilding the right window regulator and rear shocks, along with replacing the rear suspension spheres and flushing the suspension and brake fluids. Specified in Blu Swaters Metallic over beige Tradizione Connolly leather, the car is powered by a 5.5-liter F116 V12 paired with a six-speed manual transaxle. A Fabspeed X-pipe was installed and the catalytic converters were removed under previous ownership, and equipment includes a limited-slip differential, 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels, a gated shifter, pop-up headlights, fog lights, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, power-adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, and an aftermarket audio amplifier and speakers. This 456 GT is now offered in New York by the selling dealer, a BaT Local Partner, with owner’s manuals, a two-piece luggage set, spare parts, a car cover, and a Connecticut registration.
The Pininfarina-designed aluminum and composite bodywork is finished in Blu Swaters Metallic and features pop-up headlights, integrated fog lights, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, and polished quadruple exhaust tips exiting through the rear valance. The lower front valance and inner rear bumper vents were refinished in 2020, and work in 2021 included rebuilding the headlight motors and replacing the hood struts and windshield wiper nozzles. Photos of exterior imperfections and paint meter readings are viewable in the gallery below.
Silver 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with 255/45 front and 285/40 rear Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires that show 2016 and 2017 production codes. Self-adjusting dampers and self-leveling rear suspension were standard equipment. Stopping power is provided by Ferrari-branded four-piston brake calipers over ventilated rotors at each corner. The front brake cooling ducts were replaced in 2018, and work in preparation for the sale is said to have included rebuilding the rear shocks, replacing the rear suspension spheres, and flushing the suspension and brake fluids.
The cabin features beige Tradizione Connolly leather upholstery that extends from the seating surfaces to the center console, lower dashboard, and door panels. A Kenwood amplifier and JBL speakers were added in 2018, and the handbrake mechanism was repaired at that time. Additional equipment includes power-adjustable front seats, a gated shifter, and automatic climate control. The heater valve was removed, cleaned, and reinstalled in 2021, and the selling dealer tells us that the right window regulator was rebuilt in preparation for the sale. Blemishes are visible near the right door lock button, and portions of the headliner are lifting above the right window.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames Veglia Borletti instrumentation including a 320-km/h speedometer and a 10k-rpm tachometer. An analog clock and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and oil temperature are located in the center stack. The six-digit odometer shows 20k kilometers (~12k miles).
The 5.5-liter F116 V12 features four valves per cylinder, Bosch Motronic fuel injection, and dry-sump lubrication. It was factory rated at 436 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. The crankshaft seals were replaced in 2017, and work in 202o included re-coring the radiator and addressing an oil sump leak. The most recent timing belt service was performed in 2023, and the drive belt, four of the exhaust gaskets, and an ignition boot were replaced at that time. The oil was changed in July 2025.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. A Fabspeed X-pipe and center exhaust components were installed in 2020, and the removed catalytic converters and center resonator will accompany the car.
A two-piece luggage set by Schedoni is included in the sale, along with spare floor mats and parts, manufacturer’s literature, and service records.
The Carfax report shows no accidents or other reported damage from an initial update in January 1998.
The car is offered on its Connecticut registration, which serves as an ownership document in Connecticut for vehicles of its age. It denotes the registered usage as “Antique”.
