1986 Ferrari Testarossa Agostini Factory Go Kart Fao Schwartz

1986 Ferrari Testarossa Agostini Factory Go Kart Fao Schwartz

1986

The Ferrari Tesstarossa “go kart” was originally sold at FAO Schwartz and Neiman Marcus stores for over $50,000 in 1986. This Ferrari ‘Go-Kart’ will surely gain in value as time goes on. When you look at the specs, the term ‘go-kart’ almost seems like an insult. It’s powered by a 5 HP Briggs & Stratton motor that’s linked to a 2 speed automatic transmission with reverse. While 5 HP can’t compare to what real Ferrari engines put out, it’s still enough to push this 615 pound replica up to 30 MPH.



But it’s the attention to detail that’s most impressive. Opening the hinged doors you’ll find an electric starter, Momo steering wheel, working horn, gauges, dual adjustable seats and more. Walking around the car you’ll find working retractable headlights and turn signals, independent suspension and even hydraulically operated rear disc brakes. Dimensions are 32 inches high, 52 inches wide and 96 inches long. Very comfortable for two kids.


This Ferrari Tesstarossa is in near factory new condition. As the serial plate shows this is #47 of a very limited run built in Italy. It was purchased by a grandfather for his lucky grandchildren but used very little – it looks like new. It was displayed alongside his sports car collection. We have sold most of this gentlemans collection of “toys” and he now said it time for this Ferrari to find a new home.



Since the cars were all hand made in limited quantities, FAO Schwartz and Neiman Marcus originally priced them at $50,000. They all sold in a matter of a few days.


Please search the internet and you will find more information about these very rare “go karts”. Check You Tube for a video of one running on the street. There have been some listed for sale from $24,900 to $39,900.
