Probably one of the best Ferraris designed by Pininfarina was the very first collaborative project - the 1951 Ferrari 212 Inter. With production only kicking off in 1952, the Inter was the first car to leave Modena’s assembly line sporting the Pininfarina moniker on its flanks.

Often referred to as the first ‘production’ Ferrari, the 212 was nevertheless pure Pininfarina, showcasing the company’s skill at fashioning a clean yet svelte body, free of the style-lines that were to dominate some of the later designs. An interesting adornment, that first appeared on the Inter and would be repeated on several future models, was the ‘egg-crate grille.’
