Ferrari’s $313,000 612 Scaglietti Customized by Novitec Rosso
Ferrari tuning-house Novitec Rosso has upgraded the Italian manufacturer’s highly successful 612 Scaglietti.
Adding a higher level of customization to an already extremely exclusive vehicle, Novitec Rosso bolstered the engine up to 565 hp. Thanks to a newly calibrated engine management system and stainless-steel, high-performance exhaust system, Novitec Rosso was able to keep the V12 engine and its 5,748 cm³ displacement unchanged. Because the engine is able to rev up at a faster rate, the top speed was increased to 325 km/h; it only takes 3.9 seconds to blow past the 100 km/h mark.
Instead of the 19-inch wheels that the standard 612 Scaglietti sits on, the Ferrari tuner chose a combination of size 9Jx20 wheels in the front and 12.5Jx21 in the rear. While this imbalance in size emphasizes the wedge-shaped design of the car, it also enhances the driving dynamics. The Pirelli P Zero tires offer the perfect complement, and as expected are also staggered in size: 275/30 ZR 20 on the front for expert grip around fast corners and sudden breaking, while the 355/25 R 21 on the rear axle allows for maximum traction and faster cornering speeds. Further exterior upgrades can be seen with the black Novitec Rosso lamps, as well as the four round taillights, reflectors, and side markers.
Providing a new level of comfort and individuality, the four-seat interior of each Scaglietti is customized to each customer’s preference. Able to request the ergonomically shaped steering wheel in any color, customers also have the option of choosing the material it’s made from and the thickness of the rim. One final touch from Novitec Rosso is personal tailoring of the seat to the driver’s exact body measurements.
Although pricing for Novitec Rosso’s customized 612 Scaglietti has not been announced, the regular model comes in at $313,000.
