Ferrari BR20

Ferrari has introduced the BR20 coupe inspired by mid-20th century Ferrari coupes with features reminiscent of the 410 Superamerica and 500 Superfast models.

It is designed as a unique project for a special client, and is based on the modified GTC4 Lusso platform that was recently discontinued. The front has been redesigned and expanded with a front grille featuring unique horizontal slats and a carbon top element that connects it to other recent One-Off models.

The platform on which it was made is longer than the original. The BR20 is equipped with a new front grille with a carbon fiber insert, triangular intakes on front bumpers, large air outlets on the bonnet, carbon fiber side skirt extensions and a new diffuser.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in dark brown leather with white stitching, while the rear seats have been removed. The rear bench and luggage compartment are also upholstered in brown leather with oak accessories.

The Ferrari BR20 is powered by the same engine as the GTC4 Lusso. It is a 6.3-liter V12 engine with 681 hp (501 kW) and 514 lb-ft (697 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It rides on 20 inch wheels.

The name of the owner as well as the price of this unique beast are not known.

Rare LaFerrari Coupe on auction

Auction house RM Sotheby’s has announced the sale of the LaFerrari Coupe. It is one of 500 units produced from 2013 to 2016.

The first owner bought the car in 2016 and has traveled less than 1,500 kilometers with it since then. The unique dark red body color (Vinaccia) is the detail that sets this LaFerrari Coupe apart from the rest.

The LaFerrari Coupe is powered by a centrally located 6.3 L F140FE V12 engine which in combination with the electric motor and KERS system produces a total of 950 hp (699 kW) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Engine power is enough to push the two-seater to 62 mph in less than 3 seconds, to 124 mph (200 km / h) in less than 7 seconds. The top speed that a supercar can reach is 220 mph (350 km / h).

When it comes to price, the LaFerrari Coupe, Ferrari’s response to the ultrasports hybrid models of the McLaren (P1) and Porsche (918 Spyder), originally cost $ 1.5 million. It is expected to reach the auction price of more than three million dollars.

The Ferrari Icona is coming in November

Ferrari’s next masterpiece, the Ferrari Icona, will debut later this year, in November. This will happen at the Mugello track in Italy, where the third Ferrari model from the Icona series of numerically limited supercars will appear. We have previously seen the Monza SP1 and SP2 models.

The Monza SP1 and SP2 are based on the 812 Superfast model and are inspired by the classic Ferrari race cars from the 1950s, namely the 750 Monza and the 860 Monza. Ferrari’s next unique project is inspired by the legendary Ferrari 330 P4 that competed at Le Mans in the 1960s.

The Icona will use the same engine as the 812 Competizione, a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 820 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque. Power is expected to be transmitted to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

While the 812 Competizione has a front-mounted engine, Ferrari’s next car in the Icona series will be based on the same platform as the LaFerrari Aperta with the engine in the middle. Its unique design will pay tribute to the legendary mdoel 330 P4. Unlike LaFerrari, the special model will not have hybrid technology.

Only 300 copies of the Icona model will be produced, and we will know more details after the presentation in November.
