About the Ferrari 456 GT Dark Blue Metallic Bburago 1:18
TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast Ferrari 456 GT in Dark Blue Metallic reproduces the Pininfarina-designed four-seat V12 grand tourer launched in 1992. As the successor to the 412, the 456 represents Ferrari's front-engine touring tradition rather than its mid-engine sports car range.
Not every Ferrari is built for the track, and this Dark Blue Metallic 456 GT from Bburago represents the marque's quieter side, a genuine four-seat V12 grand tourer meant for effortless long-distance driving.
Reproducing a Front-Engine Grand Tourer in Diecast
Bburago's zinc alloy build gives this 456 real presence in hand, and the Dark Blue Metallic paint shows genuine depth under direct light, a subdued color that suits the car's understated grand touring character better than a bright competition hue. Opening doors and hood reveal the front-mounted V12, an engine layout that sets the 456 apart from Ferrari's more famous mid-engine two-seaters, and the proportions reflect a genuinely longer, more accommodating cabin built for four occupants rather than two. Pininfarina's design gave the 456 pop-up headlights, a styling choice already becoming unusual by the early 1990s, and Bburago's tooling reproduces that closed, smooth nose panel accurately when the lights sit stowed. Panel gaps run wider than premium resin alternatives, consistent with Bburago's accessible tier, but the overall silhouette, long hood and short, sculpted tail, comes through clearly at this scale.
The 456's Place in Ferrari's Touring Lineage
Launched in 1992 as the successor to the 412, the 456 GT carried forward Ferrari's front-engine, four-seat V12 tradition at a time when the marque's public image was increasingly defined by mid-engine supercars like the Testarossa and F40. For a collector building a Ferrari GT chronology rather than a pure supercar shelf, the 456 fills that grand touring lineage, the practical, long-distance counterpart to Maranello's headline two-seaters. Displayed among a broader Ferrari collection, it offers genuine variety rather than another mid-engine repetition.
