About the Ferrari Testarossa PPG Auto Refinish Red Bburago 1:18

TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast Ferrari Testarossa in PPG Auto Refinish red reproduces the promotional livery PPG Industries applied to exotic pace cars at 1980s American race meetings. Diecast construction carries the Testarossa's flowing side strakes and wide rear haunches with genuine heft.

PPG Industries built a whole marketing campaign around lending its paint technology to pace cars at American circuits through the 1980s, and Ferrari's flat-out Testarossa made an obvious choice of subject.

Bburago's Diecast Treatment of a Sponsor Livery

The Testarossa's defining feature is its side strake intake, a design element that channels air to the rear-mounted radiators, and Bburago's diecast tooling keeps those horizontal slats crisp at 1:18. The PPG red is a punchier, more saturated shade than most factory Testarossa colours, and it shows off the car's wide rear haunches and low, wedge-shaped nose without competing against the strakes for attention. Diecast weight gives the model the substantial feel a flagship Ferrari deserves, even in a promotional colour scheme rather than a catalogue finish.

The Testarossa and PPG's 1980s Pace-Car Programme

PPG Industries used exotic cars finished in bold, brand-specific liveries to pace American racing series through much of the 1980s, turning the paint itself into the marketing message. A Testarossa dressed this way made sense on two levels: it was genuinely fast enough to lead a field of race cars, and its dramatic bodywork gave the sponsor livery plenty of surface to work with. It is a genuinely different angle on the Testarossa story compared to the usual road-car colour palette.

A Colour-Scheme Curiosity for a Testarossa Shelf

Set beside a standard red or black Testarossa, this PPG-liveried example adds a genuinely different chapter to the car's story rather than simply repeating the same shape in another colour. For anyone collecting Testarossa variants specifically, it fills a niche that factory-colour replicas cannot cover on their own.
