I spotted this Ferrari 400i in the background on this exhibition dedicated to Sergio Pininfarina. Quite surprised to see the 400 was presented. Just adding it here for the records.

Brasil - fbfcollezione

At the start of this video there are two 400's parked. The grey one seems to be a 365GT4 2+2 and the black one maybe a 400 carburettor.

There are not many 400s in Brasil, so adding it here just for the records.

A GARAGEM MAIS FANTÁSTICA DO BRASIL 😍

Sim, isso pode parecer cena da Gringa mas essa garagem espetacular pertence aos amigos da @fbf.collezione e encontra-se aqui no Brasil.

Não se trata de um museo ou algo do tipo e sim uma garagem particular!

Aqui no vídeos vocês veem apenas uma parta dessa gigantesca e maravilhosa coleção que contempla os carros e motos mais icônicos e exclusivos do mundo!

A FBF possui um acervo simplesmente cinematográfico para deixar qualquer apaixonado por carros e motos de boca aberta! Talvez a maior coleção de Ferraris, Porsches e Ducatis que eu já tenha visto na vida…

Essa merece MUITO a sua Curtida! MANDA para aquele seu amigo e já entra em contato com a FBF para agendar sua visita ou evento.

Ferrari 400/412i (1976-1989) review and buying guide by Keith Adams

The article does not mention when it was published and I couldn´t find it on my blog either. It popped up on my radar today. So just for the records:

Book : Piero Ferrari - Mio Padra Enzo - 2+2 Automatic

This book got published in 2014. It's an interview story with Piero Ferrari about his father Enzo.

It's only available in the Italian language. In a small section they touchbase about Enzo's preferred Ferrari roadcar choice. According to Piero he loved to drive the 2+2's but to build and sell it were the GTs.

And also Piero states clearly it was Enzo who pushed for an automatic version.

See also these 2 blogposts regarding the automatic version used first for production on the 400 series:

Translated scanned page via Google. Gro is translated wrong somehow, it's Gto. and GRs is clearly GTs as per original scan hereunder:

Original pages with the Italian content regarding Enzo's preferred choices according to Piero:

Ferrari Owners Club / 1984 85 Membership Directory

I was curious regarding the publication of this directory. So I bought it, it did contain the following 400 owners back then and their details. And it does mention the VIN of the car as well. 

The last one I did recognize, I had a blogpost about it:
