A rare and special V12 Ferrari that can provide a unique open-top driving experience combined with the privilege of owning an important, limited-edition example of the marque. A. fter the success of the Ferrari 550, the spiritual successor to the 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’, Ferrari realised that there would be a market for a convertible version of the car. The resulting car was the limited-edition 550 Barchetta Pininfarina.
The Barchetta was mechanically identical to its hardtop sibling, and it was intended to be a pure roadster, offering the same feeling as Ferrari’s earlier Barchetta models. For the convertible variant of the 550’s replacement, the 575 Maranello, the factory responded to customers’ calls for a more usable top in dramatic fashion, creating a brand-new convertible top system that offered the freedom of the Barchetta with the practicality and security of the Berlinetta. The resulting car was the 575 Superamerica. Undoubtedly the most interesting part of the car was its Revochromico rotating hardtop.
It was the first roof of its kind ever fitted to a production car, and it was built using a carbon-fibre frame that was integrated with electrochromatic glass. The transparency of the glass could be adjusted from within the cabin to allow varying amounts of light in, letting roughly the same amount of light in as a conventional glass sunroof at its lightest setting and only 1% of the sun’s rays through at its darkest. With the press of a button, the Superamerica can be transformed into a convertible, with the roof rotating back to rest flush with the boot lid in just 10 seconds. Ferrari chose to produce just 559 examples, and every car was spoken for within weeks of its announcement.
This particular left-hand drive car is owned, and has been for the last 7 years, by a well known petrol head celebrity car collector.
