Money cannot buy happiness, but it can do much good. He said he was looking for a client who asked ferrari that they make a custom car for you, according to your taste, and that it is unique and will never be repeated.

This creation is a one-off (unique) of the Special Projects department of the Italian brand (Special Projects, hence the acronym SP bearing the model name), dedicated to fulfill the wishes of the very rich man.

Base series, single figure

This model is built on the F8 Tribute platform and has some of its features that allow it to be distinguished from the base vehicle. But this coupe reinforces tighter lines and a sharp, aggressive figure.

One of the key design points of this unique model is the intensive use of modeling techniques that allow Ferrari designers to completely redesign the shape of the grille and the engine air intakes.

This production process is allowed to create 3d grill perfect, full of volume in its entirety, transmits a sense of continuity and dynamic fluidity.

These bodywork graphic solutions interact directly with the grilles and affect the overall design of the SP48 Unica. Particularly noteworthy is the transition from black to body color applied to windows, roof and hood.

It illustrates the use of black alcantara with specially made laser perforations that cover most of the seats and in the cabin, where you can see red to orange fabric that is the same color as the bodywork. Unfortunately, the company did not release photos of the interior.

The Ferrari SP48 Unica was created for a loyal clientele of Prancing Horse who actively participated in every stage of its creation. According to the company’s vision, the car achieves the goal of transforming an existing model in an original and effective way, drawing inspiration from and at the same time honoring the core values ​​of the brand.
