The company that builds bespoke commissions and limited edition cars, Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera, has presented its latest project, the Veloce 12. It is based on the Ferrari 550 Maranello that was produced between 1996 and 2002 and was limited to only 448 examples.

Although Ferrari’s original design has been retained for the most part, the car really looks much better after the modifications. It gets new carbon fiber bodywork, new headlights and taillights, a reinforced chassis, six-piston Brembo brakes at the front and four at the rear, and a TracTive suspension with adaptive dampers that ensures the classic GT on the road behaves like a modern car.

The interior is covered in beautiful two-tone brown leather covering the seats, door panels, dashboard, and center console, and new buttons and switches have been added.

The car is powered by a modified 5.5-L naturally aspirated V12 engine with 510 hp (380 kW) and 419 lb-ft (568 Nm) of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. The engine received a new cooling system, and an aftermarket exhaust system was installed. It goes from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.4 seconds with a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph).

Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera will produce only 30 cars and the upgrade costs 690,000 euros (donor car not included).
