About this car
The Ferrari Superamerica is among the rarest production Ferraris of the modern era, with just 559 built between 2005 and 2006. Its defining feature is a world-first rotating electrochromic glass roof panel that transitions from opaque to clear at the push of a button and tilts back to open the cabin to the sky — a piece of engineering theatre that remains unique in the automotive world. This 2005 example, registered on a 55-plate, has covered just 387 miles from new, placing it firmly in the category of cars that have barely turned a wheel since leaving Maranello.
The 5.7-litre naturally aspirated V12 — shared in spirit with the 575M Maranello on which the Superamerica is based — produces 532 bhp and 588 ft-lb of torque, delivered through Ferrari's F1 single-clutch paddle-shift gearbox. The 0–60 mph figure of 4.3 seconds and a 199 mph top speed reflect a car built for fast, intercontinental grand touring rather than circuit work. Presented in red, which suits the drama of the open roof and the V12 soundtrack.
With production long concluded and examples in this mileage condition virtually nonexistent on the market, the Superamerica occupies a distinct position: a usable, road-registered collector's piece rather than a garage ornament. The combination of its unique roof technology, V12 specification, and near-zero mileage makes this a genuinely difficult car to replicate.
