Enzo Ferrari’s son owns an Epic Daytona SP3 inspired by
Ferrari only built 599 examples of the LaFerrari Aperta-based Daytona SP3, and its founder's only surviving son recently got one go through Brad Anderson December 31, 2024 12:14 The car features a white and blue paint theme inspired by the 1964 F1 car driven by John Surtees. F1 drivers Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc recently received the keys to their own SP3. This sexy supercar is powered by the brand's highly regarded 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine. Although the Ferrari F80 is not yet available on the market, many believe it is not a suitable successor to the iconic LaFerrari, mainly because it features a powerful V6 engine assisted by three electric motors that sounds disappointingly muted, contrary to the brand's iconic V12 engine. Some believe the Daytona SP3 should be marketed as the brand's latest flagship supercar, and after seeing the one owned by Piero Ferrari, it's easy to see why. Like the LaFerrari, the Daytona SP3 is an…
Would you pay tens of thousands of dollars for these Ferraris?
Junkyard collection sold for tens of thousands at RM Sotheby's auction, little more than worn-out shells Rare Ferraris and Porsches in shocking condition are expected to sell for tens of thousands of dollars. Some models at auction are so incomplete that major components have separate listings. These beat-up classic cars can cost thousands of dollars to restore, but are still extremely valuable. Rudi Klein loved cars, so he collected several very valuable cars before his death. We've already told you about some of his collection of intact but unrestored barn finds. Now, we have to take the wraps off some cars that are in terrible condition. Although they are indeed in terrible condition, RM Sotheby's price guides for them often run into the tens of thousands of dollars. Consider this; the cheapest car in this group is a 1965 Porsche 911, with a guide price of $3,000 to $6,000. For that money, buyers will get a heavily damaged 911 shell,…
Ferrari’s electric Porsche Taycan, Tesla Model S rival, spy photos revealed
Ferrari is preparing to launch its first electric vehicle (EV), which is expected to compete with the Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model S. Not much is known about Ferrari's electric car, which will be released in 2025, except that it is expected to account for 5% of the brand's annual sales by 2026. Images taken by spy photographers Wilco Bullock The photos uploaded to Instagram show a heavily camouflaged prototype leaving the Ferrari factory in Maranello. Although its body panels are well hidden, the overall shape looks like a hatchback, or at least a shooting brake, and its four doors put it in an exclusive club with the Purosangue as the only Ferraris with more than two entrances.

Ferrari’s first electric car is secretly tested inside a Maserati
Ferrari mule uses parts from current models, likely for early testing of EV powertrain and chassis An early development version of Ferrari's first electric car has been spotted driving around Maranello. The "Frankenstein" tester combines a Maserati Levante body with Ferrari Roma headlights. This does not represent the body style of the electric car that will go into production in late 2025. Update 9/7: We've just received new, more detailed spy photos of a Ferrari EV test car, giving us a better look at the car. Along with these new photos, we've also gleaned new information about the car's development and potential features, Ferrari's first all-electric model is set to debut in 2025, but the company has remained tight-lipped about its design and market positioning. However, new spy photos from Maranello show what appears to be an early prototype of the upcoming EV, with makeshift parts from Ferrari and Maserati models. It’s a classic move from early testing – hiding…
Ferrari’s Purosangue has split, now split again
Photos of the aftermath of a serious Ferrari Purosangue crash have emerged on social media from China. The force of the impact shredded the V12 engine and front subframe, scattering them across the street. This isn’t the first Purosangue crash we’ve seen, but it’s the worst. As an all-wheel-drive SUV, the Purosangue is Ferrari's most sensible model, but that doesn't guarantee it will be sensible to drive, as these photos of a Maranello SUV that crashed in China prove. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd("6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); } }); Details about the collision are scarce, but judging by the way the Purosangue was sliced in half at the firewall, the hatchback supercar was traveling at a very high speed at the time of impact.

Ferrari’s F40 didn’t have a V12, but Simpson Racing’s
A road-legal, V12-engined Ferrari F40 is set to go to auction in August. The factory-built F40 had a twin-turbocharged V8 engine, but this car was fitted with a 5.5-liter V12 from a Ferrari 550 and a Hewland gearbox. The road-legal race car is built on a Maranello crash-test chassis and is registered in the UK as the Simpson Ferrari GTR. The F40 is a modern Maranello classic, the first production Ferrari to exceed 200 mph (322 km/h), and a car that anticipated hardcore road-going supercars 25 years before they became a trend. But there is one thing about the F40 that makes it different from most other high-priced collectible Ferraris, other than the 288 GTO it was derived from: it doesn't have a V12. Well, this one does. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd("6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); } }); UK-based Simpson Racing built the F40 in the early 2000s using…
