Ferrari 612 Scaglietti

The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti isn’t a car for footballers with too much hair gel—it’s for those who understand that Pininfarina’s Ken Okuyama wrote a love letter to Roberto Rossellini’s legendary 375MM with this design. A front-mid-engine rocket that hits 320 km/h, while still offering enough space in the back for two adults.

Beneath the endless hood lies the Tipo F133 engine, a technical masterpiece. Thanks to its aluminium spaceframe and transaxle layout—with the gearbox at the rear for perfect balance—this GT dances through twisty roads with the light-footed elegance of a ballerina on speed. It’s a technical marvel from an era when Ferraris truly ‘communicated’ with their driver, without the interference of electronic babysitters. A car that combines the raw power of 540 thundering horses with the impeccable manners of a British butler.

And then there’s this specific example, finished in Blu Mirabeau. While most 612 owners used their cars for quick trips to the Alps, this one has only covered 3,442 kilometers in twenty years—that’s roughly the distance of a round trip from Amsterdam to Milan. The maintenance, however, was obsessively thorough, with over €30,000 spent at the dealer (that’s nearly €10 per kilometer in pure love). Every service performed at the dealer, stamped, documented, and completely up to date.

“Nobody falls in love with a 612 in pictures. Everyone does in real life.”
