The Ferrari 512 BB -- also called the Ferrari Boxer -- is was the coolest Ferrari in the 1970s and 1980s. Now, the Ferrari Boxer is worth $300,000 or more -- and today I'm reviewing the Ferrari Boxer to show you what makes it so cool.

I make this comment on every vid, he'll never stop.
David Kononen and your the type of guy who cant make up your own comments
And a fitted S collared dress shirt over that even
He's also the guy who over-pronounces things, but to be fair, that's an American thing. Words like Fee-art (Fiat) and Marzda (Mazda)

That pizza delivery guy on the moped is the real MVP....
Rob Cape Mmmmm, pizza!
I scrolled looking for a comment. I am very satisfied
Wait, the fuses are in an electricly opened compartment, that can't be opened without power?
That little factoid perfectly sums up the 1970s Italian Ferrari
I’d definitely put a second fuse for the mechanism or manual override. I love Ferrari for this. They’ve certainly changed, for the better in many ways.
So you need to fix the fuses before the electrics work, which are in the glove box which won't open until the fuses are fixed. Good job Ferrari.

Oh fogedabadit
"This is a special car." - I totally agree. It's beautiful.
@Teamgeist your taste in cars is a bit naff
Looks like a C4 Corvette.
Meh. The testarossa like so much better to me.
Amazing
It's the italian C4 'Vette .
Give me the 'Vette

Only cause Doug wasn’t pushing the accelerator!
Doug. Can you review a Camel while you're in Dubai? I want to know its quirks and features.
Lol
Only has a choice of one or two cylinders.
I hear you gotta watch the "nose-in" with camels.
No cos then he'd have to give it a hump score - not cool
he is the camel
Ah shit. My glove box opener fuse just blew.
HunterShows
Fuuuuuuuck......
HunterShows I was thinking that too lol
Ahh Yes, the mentality of a country that modeled their electrical systems on Lucus...
That's a good one, kudos to you, Sir! :D
"Catch-a-twenty-two."
I love the signature two tone of this car.
This has been my favorite Ferrari since I first read about it when it was new. There are no quirks or features any more than the Mona Lisa has quirks and features. It’s a single holistic piece of art.
If you were 6ft 4 in the 70's in Italy you were probably with the local freak show.
Primo Carnera was 2.06M (6'9").
Brad Garrett is 2.04M
As an Italian, I can confirm that
@D B WTF?
D B one thing is stating facts, like southern Italians being shorter thanks to their mixed African blood, and a completely different one is slipping in unnecessarily rude degrading insults like “inferior” in the middle of said facts.
Calm down, no human possesses perfect genetic, and you are not excluded.
Doug is the type of guy to be driving a vintage Ferrari in Dubai, and verbally acknowledge a PT Cruiser
i-Spec PT Cruiser *convertible*. The regular one isn't too bad (it was my second vehicle, handed down from my mother and so it wouldn't have been a choice if I was selecting a vehicle).
He once commented a Cadillac BLS in a Ferrari 250 GT Lusso video
This was the poster car of its day. It's one of the most iconic and most stylish Ferraris ever.
So you're f**ked if the glove box fuse is blown.
write off.
YES! DOUG JUST REDLINED A CAR FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS VIDEO!
And screamed while doing so that you couldn't hear the engine. Perfect!
And we couldn't fucking hear it!! Not once because he kept screaming like a girl!
How would u know? U just saw his face saying it.
Doug DeMuro is the type of guy to use 2 tshirts in Dubai
Luso Tecnologia you need one to be able to throw one away at the end of the day.

Such a savage looking Italian muscle car. No garish spoilers and no disco. Just simply beautiful.
It's great but how is that a muscle car?
I don’t think you know what a muscle car is genius
Correction Doug, it is a flat 12 not a flat V12 as you referred to it, it is still a very good looking car.
Bear in mind most supercars of this era were capable of hitting 60mph ( 100kph ) in 1st gear if you use the rpms, sounded GREAT going thru the tunnel!
@@ArbitraryFilmings correction: your correction is incorrect. It IS a flat 12 and not a V12. While it is not a boxer engine, it does not mean that it is inherently a "V" configuration. Ferrari uses a crankshaft configuration of a V12 which places two connecting rods on each crank pin. This differs from the boxer configuration of one con-rod/crank pin set up. But the crankshaft configuration doesn't dictate the designation of the engine. The block does. There is no flat V12.
@D B I have my comment above CLEARLY stating ''it is a flat 12 not a V12!
CORRECT
Doug is the type of guy who said Flat V12 which sound like an oxymoron
Perhaps you could cheekily call it a 180-degree V12! 🙂
You know it's rare when it has a Flat-V12 Engine.
KasperKla Naw, a Flat 12 ;)
Don Marussia technically not perfectly flat
lol
KasperKla it’s truly mystical
According to Ferrari it's a 180 degree V12. Go figure!
Doug the type of guy to pick up prostitutes in gta 5 and drop them off safer neighborhoods
And here I didn't think one of these "kind of guy" comments would actually be clever or make me laugh.
Ethan King lmfaOooo
Naw that's Drake
Kelly Hryniuk ha yeah has the attitude of doing that
hahahahahahhaa
Doug! You've got the BB acronym wrong. Berlinetta Boxer was actually a term given by journalists at the time. The real meaning of BB was Berlinetta Bialbero (dual camshaft).
false it officially stands for Berlinetta Boxer
@@roverwaters3875 Nope..
@@FlickerRides I am right, google "365bb owners manual" images.
It is written on the cover: Berlinetta Boxer...
@@roverwaters3875 Engineer Mauro Forghieri confirmed during an interview with Davide Cironi that they knew the car was not equipped with a Boxer engine. He explained the meaning of the acronym (Berlinetta Boxer) was fabricated by journalists, in reality, it means Berlinetta Bialbero (dual camshaft).
@@FlickerRides nice story which negates the "Berlinetta bialbero" altogether
This is one of the few rare cares reviewed on this channel that I've actually seen in person. I happened upon a Ferrari meetup on the Oregon coast and a Ferrari 512 BBi was there. In fact, that's the car I followed the rest of the way to the meetup.
So the glove box is electrically actuated and the fuses are inside the glove box. Real smart, Ferrari.
Italians:)
MrTruth111 yeah, the people that presented, in 1973, this car, going faster than 280 km/h.
That means 45 years ago.
Mod MINI Knowing Doug, that's probably not true. I mean i honestly can't think of a team of engineers and technicians none of which figured out what a nonsense it would be to lock the fuses into an electrically actuated box. Simply not credible.
The David the glovebox is operated by vacuum not electricity. The engine supplies vacuum to a module that distributes vacuum to several things in this car like the HVAC, lights and door locks.
Technically speaking the engine does not have to be running to open the glove, unless you deplete the reservoir, which then would require you to start the engine to replenish it. More than likely, the system has a leak (very common) and so some of these accessories do not work with the engine off.
Also, fuses in the glove box is extremely common up until present day. On some cars you even have to disassemble the glove box to access the fuses. BMW X cars come to mind. No idea where Doug got that.
Lynx Star Automotive yeah he makes car parodies basically.
if doug was president, he would spend most of the time telling other countrys about americas quircks and features
Best believe those foreigners would all get a 'Doug' (nuke 'em) score too.
this.. is the 2021 united states of america and today i'm gonna show you some of its cool quirks n features
Thanks, Doug for making these awesome videos, showcasing these classic beauties. I've learned a hella lot about vintage supercars ever since I began watching your channel. 🚗🚗🔥💪👍👍
I love that horn sound. Always been my favourite. Reminds me of Cannonball Run.
18:02 'I flew 12 hours to be in America!!' 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Samuel Becker high key tho I live here I. Dubai it’s no different from Houston hahah
"I'm going 70 miles an hour which is some speed in kilometers that no one knows"
Thanks Doug... :v
112km/h btw :P
I make it 113kph
Haha, i found thay funny
Speed in kph = 1.6 Speed in mph.
Or think of it as adding 50 % of the number, then another 10 %, e.g. 70 mph + 35 + 7 = 112 kph
Good overview. Road a& Track tested the BB 512 and got 0 - 60 in 5.0 sec and a top speed of 176.4 mph. I owned a 1979 BB 512 and got a calibrated 5.1 sec. 0-60 and a top speed of 178 mph. Those who recorded 188 mph took off the wiper and side mirror. Magnificent vehicle. Downside. As an engineer, I did not like the engine being on top the gearbox minimizing the CoG, but it worked. Gorgeous clean lines, awesome sound, instant throttle response with balance feel and handling, unsurpassed at the time.
More like these @Doug DeMuro!! Magificent, glorious machine, to be sure, but above all the format of this particular review lends itself well to a pleasurable viewing experience. Easy to tell when you are at ease in your videos.
Why can't we go back to those days of being able to simply import a car, even if it's not really offered for sale in the U.S.? Anyone with me?
Holy crap. I thought the Model S was the first car with an electronic glovebox release.
40 years too late apparently
Anton Maes lol
And don't forget the BMW X5 E70 and X6
Jaguar xj had it as well
nigga my Prius has it as well
nvm
My favorite Ferrari of all time! Love the color combo and great video! Cheers!
Back in the 1980's one of the senior management at the company I worked for had a red/black BB. Beautiful car.
I looooove those classic Ferrari horns
I want doug to do a review on humans now. I need to know its cool quirks and features and ofcourse ... A doug score.
Made by an Italian company called Fiamm
They sound sooooo good
Yes, I love those horns too! I was considering getting one on my GT500
Digital Car Addict never thought I'd see you you here, go back to gta!
Doug the type of dude who's never sure about his own height
Helio Komagata fr 6.2 6.3 now 6.4! Wtf
"To find my true height, GO TO AUTOTRADER DOT COM SLASH OVERSTEER!"
Ethan King next video he's gonna say he's about 6'5 6'6.lol
He expanded with the heat. Science.
Now give your hieght a Duosh Score
Surprised you gave it a 4/10 for acceleration; it seemed so exhilarating and the excitement showed big time on your face, more than in many of your other vids in fact ;) I love this car!!
you really make us feel how special that car is when your driving it. thanks. great video.
I'm tired and wanted to sleep but his notification brought me here
Doug the type of guy to call in sick to a docs appointment
"Inside is tight and uncomfortable..." -- Motor roars, big smile rises up -- "This seats are very comfortable, very nice car, I could drive it for a while...."
19:25 it sounds like he said "acceleration is excellent for a car that's gay..."
C'mon, let's be broad minded here--cars can be gay and fast, and...fast and gay.
He clearly says "...for a car of its day" ...but, whatever turns you on ;-)
He called the car gay 👍
Doug, about the name ("512 BB") I've personally heard Leonardo Fioravanti (the famous designer) saying that "BB" was actually referred to Brigitte Bardot (as an inside joke), but when journalists asked about it they invented "Berlinetta Boxer" even though the car was not a berlinetta nor boxer...
BB stands for berlinetta boxer
It is written in the owners manual.
@@roverwaters3875 I bet you're fun at parties
Doug when are you going to make your own merchandise....!!! WE NEED A SHIR THAT SAYS "daddy demuro" please and thank you!

_Fist me, Dougie_
Is that meme dead? I feel like it's dead
no clue but that cracked me up LOL
Hey Doug! Great job on this car. I am a classic car transporter and was able to grab my first 512 BB from a rally. I am also about your size and height and found it difficult not only to drive but to get in and out of, but I also agree with you. It is such a blast to drive! I don’t know if I would want to own one of these, but the sound of that 12 cylinder firing up, particularly in my trailer is a hair raising experience for sure. Great job, Doug!
This is the car Sammy Hagar drives in the "I can't drive 55" video.
Yep, black 512BB, yellow and red jump suit.
It's his car too - or at least, he owns one!
And he still owns it to this day
He flew twelve hours just to be in America. Top 10 anime quotes
15:18 When Daddy Doug has found the final ultimate quirk
Come on now Doug. That's the way a horn on a sportscar should sound.
"Get out of my way" "hey this lane is for passing" ...lol.
One of Your Best Reviews Doug ... You Had Me in Stiches Talking About Pedal Placement & Kilometers... But I agree with You ... Nobody Talks about this Ferrari ... I do believe it's not a Boxer But it Is Flat 12 Flat Plane Crank ... Which Sounds Glorious ... Thank You So Much For This Review ... Cheers
Doug the type of guy whose videos are filled with weirdos making 'Doug the type of guy..' comments.
METACEPTION!?!?!?
How is it weird to make a comment like thats you needa grown up man or find some friends
Raptor Clips And you need to go back to school.
Doug the type of nigga to not give a fuck about weirdos' Doug the type jokes, and you should strive to be that type of nigga, too.
Paradox
Doug is really committed bringing back that T shirt under T shirt look
I had this car in Gran Turismo 6 and I loved it. As soon as you put some good tires on it it was soo good to drive! And it looks gorgeous too!
Everytime I see one of these I get visions of Sammy Hagar screaming 'fifty-five!!'
I dont understand how Doug gets access to these cars dressing the way he does. His shirts always look like he took it out of the bottom of his dirty clothes hamper.
negritorican Yes, he looks like a street slob, lol! Is that one of his quirks and features? Hehe!!
Dude, he has a million subscribers. He works for a very large sales service. And most car people don't give a fuck how you dress.
No one cares how you dress, normally these type of people are the millionaires that buy cash from the dealers. The flashy ones just go see them and buy nothing
that’s how you stay rich,look at Bill Gates
negritorican That's just how Doug rolls .
This car deserves a lot more credit than Doug gave it. This deserves a 10 for cool factor. I knew exactly what it was before I clicked. I also know the 365 BB is this cars predecessor and looks exactly the same. Thanks.
Great review Doug!
Love that the shot of the Testarossa included it being put on/off a tow truck. Nice touch Doug ;-)
Doug why don't you ever record the exhaust/engine sound!! Most of us would like to know how most of the cars youreview sound like!! I think you should even include it in your dougscore!
Eddie Adams it's hard to know how loud he needs some tool
any smart phone can record the exhaust sound and an app can tell how many decibels the sound is.
And Doug, Regular Car Reviews, and Jay Leno should also always include a 1/4 mile and 1 mile run... instead of talking too much...
"Nice car what's the retail on one of those "
more than you can afford pal
SoCal Supers More than you can afford pal, 70's FIAT.
Wrong Car dude
its a joke i know its not the f355
cletus2941 smoke’m!!
I was 18 years old in 1983 when i saw my 1st Ferrari in person, and it was a black 83 Ferrari 512 bb. It was 92k brand new, and looked glorious. It was still on the flat bed truck that had delivered it, just off the boat from Italy. It made quite an impression on me then.
@John hello,how are you doing
Love this Doug style of presentation... without so much hand movement and over-stating and over-pronouncing. Love the BB.
I pretty sure even the average car enthusiast has never even heard about this car, almost a mystery
It's Galaxie with an "ie" and yes, yes I am. Enough so to recognize that the Galaxie in Stranger Things is actually an LTD with Galaxie badging on the back.
I’m a car guy and I’ve never heard of this lol
So I’m instantly a non car guy because I didn’t know about this car?
its true! I walked up to one of these and I was the only person who realized what it was
Me neither... Sure would love to drive one! I am in average human proportions so the shifter placement wouldn't bother me much. Read about my desire to drive thos car on autotrader/oversteer for more! I will give this car a Chris score! :p
DUDE! That thing still looks SICK!!! Like a Corvette/Ferrari Mix.
But in this colour combination it looks like a shitty delorean.
In deep blue or red it looks much better
///TurboSeth corvettes r ugly. Sies
Z Mun You are ugly
That's debatable.
Great sound quality, as always
DOUG LOVES THIS CAR!!!!!......and I like that I saw him driving himselfe filmed from OUTSIDE...Yes Doug, do it more that Completes your Report.
My introduction to this car came from Sammy Hagar's "I Can't Drive 55" video back in 1984.
Jeff G Me too. Sammy rocks!!
Doug...
The type of guy to film a shit load of videos whilst in Dubai then release them randomly with videos he films back here just to fuck with us.
I think you need to untwist your panties, son. You don't like his release schedule, go do some vids yourself.
I've always wanted to go to Dubai.
Super cars from the 60s, 70s and 80s are so awesome.
One of my favorites! It is such a beautiful machine! Very rare and expensive! A true Italian masterpiece!!
Doug's the type of guy who makes 10k USD for making a 20 minute car review and flies all the way to Dubai and stays in an AIRBNB.
Is *no one* going to talk about the godamn *330 P4 AT THE BEGGINNING?*
Nope
I spotted it also and was in complete awe!
I saw that too. I wonder if it’s a replica ? I mean, there were only four 330 P4’s made.
@@mouser485 it has to be
@@mouser485 most likely as there are many replicas
I love them black knob switches 😍
Dam Douge I'm loving your Dubai series!
Time to move to Dubai, Doug. Exotics on every corner!
I wished he had done the Lykan Hypersports!
Trust me. If you want to see exotics everyday, you'd have to move to the heart of Dubai. Any other place in UAE is a shit show. Yeah, you could spot one or two exotics here and there. But, the rest of them are lame.
Thanks for the info. Haven't been to Dubai, personally
Why is it shit? Just curious... never been there.
Outside Dubai, all you get to see are a couple of toyotas, nissans and hondas. If you are lucky enough, you would see a few muscle cars here and there. apart from that all the other cars are quite common

Btw in Italy the 512 BB was our dream car when we were young.
Luca Savino RIP Gilles
It was my dream car growing up in the uk in the 80s too
20:30. Nice 60's era laundry-dryer-style flexi-duct on an otherwise really cool car. Same with the cables spooling out from under the steering column, which they coiled to at least make it interesting. Details, details...lol.
Seriously though, this car made the corvette of that era look like a tonka toy. Awesome!
14:34 why the owner followes Doug? Maybe the Double-Shirt let him look like he has some ideas for the Ferrari...lol. BTW, nice review!
The person following Doug is not the owner. This car is from a dealership. They are likely the rep and Doug is being followed for liability reasons. Do you trust a random goofy looking American that doesn't have the money to buy this car driving it? I sure as well wouldn't.
Doug has a comfortable networth, i say he has enough for a good down payment on a Boxer
that's Doug's cameraman
His listed networth is actually 1-2 mil. More than enough to buy out this car should something happen.
Doug was filming that part while I drove it to the location.
14:06 Doug’s first time with an asian
wtf 😂😂😂😂
Great videos about all kinds of cars! Love it! One point I have to disagree with, though: the orange turn signals are not the only clues to tell the BB512 and the 308 apart. I think the two cars are very different. You can tell them apart a mile away. The 308 is much sleeker, narrower, it looks light and almost weaker, when compared to its bigger sister. The BB512 (as it was named in Europe) is bold and wide and square, it has a stance which screams power and wilderness. The 308 never gave that impression.
I really can't believe that anyone could not tell them apart or that they weren't separate models!
i love your channel sooo much .
Doug the type of guy to wear two t-shirts

I love the comment section for this channel
I can never tell which I enjoy more, the videos or the comments. There are some true trainwrecks down here that are just mindblowing.
Holy fucking shit!!!! I'm 50 years old...since I know me, this is the car of my dreams!! Congrats Doug for driving this beauty 1981 year!!! and thanks for showing it... Love all your videos.
@Aaron hello,how are you doing
Love the shifter and vintage switches.
these vids are so interesting

Doug, you should make your own car.
I remember back in 1979 I was working as a car washer at the local Ferrari dealer in my summer holiday and one of the mechanics didn't latch the engine cover properly. The car returned with a smashed cover & the bill was £3,000 for a new one to be fitted!
