Why it matters
The N.A.R.T. Spider was an open version of the 275 GTB/4 built by Scaglietti at the request of Luigi Chinetti, Ferrari's North American importer, for American buyers. Only 10 were made; Road & Track called it the most satisfying sports car in the world, and one appeared in the film The Thomas Crown Affair.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Chinetti persuaded Enzo Ferrari to build a small run of spiders on the four-cam 275 GTB/4 chassis for the US market and named them after his North American Racing Team. The cars kept the berlinetta's 3,286 cc four-overhead-camshaft V12 with six Weber carburettors, five-speed gearbox, all-independent wishbone suspension and four-wheel disc brakes on a tubular steel frame. RM's catalogued car, chassis 10709, had been raced at Sebring by Denise McCluggage and Pinkie Rollo.
