The 612's design brief called for a car capable of accommodating four adults in comfort - rather than being merely a '2+2' - without sacrificing any of the superlative driving dynamics excepted by dedicated Ferraristi. Introduced in 2004, the result was the biggest Ferrari road car ever, yet one that weighed less than the smaller 456M. The 'secret' lay in the 612's lightweight aluminium chassis, a mixture of extrusions, castings and panels, which replaced the traditional sheet-steel monocoque.
In styling the 612, Pininfarina paid homage to one of its most famous past creations: the fabulous 375 MM commissioned by renowned Italian film-maker Roberto Rossellini for his wife, Ingrid Bergman, the long nose and scalloped sides of which find echoes in the Scaglietti. No content with merely shedding weight as a means of boosting performance, the 612 featured an improved version of the 575M Maranello's 5,748cc 65-degree V12 engine producing 540bhp and 434lb/ft of torque. The improved F1 semi-automatic transmission now changed ratios more quickly, while manual/automatic, 1st and reverse gears could now be selected using a gate on the centre console, rather than only by means of the steering-wheel paddles.
The 612 Scaglietti also featured active damping and adaptive suspension, its steering wheel-mounted controls enabling selection of either 'Normal' or 'Sport' modes, while the integrated Electronic Stability and Traction Control System (CST) is a Ferrari first. Lighter, more powerful and endowed with superior suspension and brakes, the 612 Scaglietti was around six seconds per lap quicker around Ferrari's Fiorano test track than the 456M. Its top speed? 196mph (315km/h).
A rare right-hand drive example, this 612 was ordered via Meridien Modena in Nero Daytona, with Crema hide, Nero carpets, Daytona style heated seats with Nero piping, Scuderia shields and Rosso brake calipers. The car was first registered (as '56 X') in January 2006 and has had four former keepers. Owned by our vendor since November 2018. Since acquisition the Ferrari has been garage stored and not used. Due to its period without use, servicing may be required before further use. Accompanying paperwork consists of an owner's handbook, a V5C document and DVLA MoT history. The current odometer reading is circa 32,000 miles.
