Whether you’re a seasoned collector looking to benchmark Ferrari 400 price history or a curious enthusiast wondering what is a 1979 Ferrari 400 worth, this overview gives you a clear picture of where the model stands in the modern market.*

Understanding the age—still put on paper gives a sense of the Ferrari 400 depreciation curve. Like most high‑performance classics, the 1979 Ferrari 400 often experiences the steepest drop in value during its first year on the market, typically losing approximately 15‑20% of its initial appraisal if no provenance or special edition notes are attached. However, if the car comes with a verified insurance loss history or a documented racing pedigree, it can retain up to 25‑30% of its first‑year value.
