Lamborghini 400 GT
As Lamborghini's refined second act, the 400 GT introduced a larger 4.0-liter V12 and a more practical 2+2 layout, establishing the brand's grand touring credentials. It remains a rare and significant model for collectors of early front-engine V12 Lamborghinis.

The Lamborghini 400 GT was a direct evolution of the company's first car, the 350 GT. The initial 23 cars, known as the 400 GT Interim, used leftover 350 GT bodies but housed a new, larger 4.0-liter V12 engine. The main production model, the 400 GT 2+2, arrived soon after with a redesigned steel body by Carrozzeria Touring that featured a higher roofline and small rear seats, making it a more practical grand tourer.
Today, collectors value the 400 GT for its purity and historical importance. It cemented Lamborghini's identity as a builder of sophisticated, high-performance GT cars that could rival Ferrari. With only 224 of the 2+2 models built, they're rare and offer a more accessible entry point into 1960s front-engine V12 Italian exotics than their Maranello counterparts. The market is mature, with top examples selling for around $500,000, while driver-quality cars can be found for under $300,000.
Buying Tips
- Inspect the steel Superleggera body for corrosion, particularly in the sills, floor pans, and around the front and rear glass. Bodywork is exceptionally expensive to rectify correctly.
- The 4.0-liter V12 is the car's heart. Demand extensive service records, paying close attention to carburetor tuning and valve adjustments, as deferred maintenance can lead to bills exceeding $50,000.
- Check for drivetrain originality. All 400 GTs should have a Lamborghini-designed 5-speed gearbox, which can be less durable than the ZF unit used in later models like the Islero. Test for smooth engagement and listen for any whining noises.
- Verify matching numbers for the engine, chassis, and body. Provenance and originality are key drivers of value for these early Lamborghinis.
