The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti originated as the replacement for the 456 as their 2+2 flagship for the new Millennium, and paid tribute to the 375MM built for Roberto Rossellini as a gift to Ingrid Bergman. Named after legendary coachbuilder and long-time friend of Enzo, Sergio Scaglietti, it shared its engine with the Ferrari 575 and provided the blueprint for its two-seater cousin, the 599 GTB.

After leaving the halls of Carrozzeria Scaglietti, the bodies of the 612 were then mated to a tubular chassis in Maranello, and equipped with a multitude of options at the choice of the client —manual or F1A Graziano automated transmissions, glass roofs, an optional HGTC-C handling package, and a wide variety of tasteful colours, available in two-tone guise for the ‘Sessanta’ anniversary run of 60 cars.

Producing 533hp, the 612 could reach 100kmph in a respectable 4 seconds, and a top speed of 320kmph, all with surprising levels of refinement and comfort. Ferrari’s second full-aluminum car —right after the 360— was one tuned for long-distance driving and usability, with generous seating space and competent handling for a vehicle of this size.

This particular Scaglietti, specified as a ‘One to One’, was delivered new to Japan’s ‘Rosso Corsa’ Ferrari dealership. Finished in a rare shade of Bianco Avus over two-tone Daytona seats and Challenge-style wheels, this car has received a fresh timing belt service in December 2024 and is ready to drive and enjoy.

A quick note for our USA friends: this vehicle is not a North American specification, and cannot be legally imported to the United States until it is 25 years of age or older. For Canada, this limit is brought down to 15 years of age or older.
