In the mid-90s of the last century, Ferrari unveiled the last Ferrari to feature a flat-12 engine, the Ferrari Ferrari F512 M. It was produced for only two years and 501 cars left the production line. 75 of them were modified for the American market, and one of them, a 1995 Ferrari F512 M, is for sale.
The Ferrari F512 M is powered by a 4.9-liter flat-12 engine with 440 hp (324 kW) and 370 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox. It reaches 62 mph in 4.7 seconds with a top speed of 196 mph (315 km/h). The odometer shows less than 14,150 miles at the time of cataloging.
Finished in a smoky-silver shade of Canna di Fucile Metallizzato, this car has been well maintained and is in good condition. Only 10 units out of a total of 501 produced were not finished in Rosso Corsa, and this one is one of two examples in this colour. It is equipped with a new stainless exhaust, an updated suspension, new Bosch antilock braking system, updated suspension, a new Bosch anti-lock brake system, a unique set of taillights, three-piece Speedline alloy wheels, a revised front fascia and unique fixed headlights that replaced the retractable units. Before the sale, a major engine-out servicing was completed, which included a complete belt and pulley service, spark plug replacement, fluid flush, and new filters.
Inside, the seats are upholstered in Beige/Castoro leather that also covers the door panels and the lower part of the dashboard. The updated steering wheel and the upper part of the dashboard are covered in black leather with black stitching. The car also received adjustable aluminum pedals, a more powerful air conditioning system and revised cabin trim.
The auction will take place on January 26, 2023.
