Taking Ferrari’s ultimate supercar one step further, the LaFerrari Aperta brought driver and passenger that much closer to its exceptional powertrain, a naturally aspirated V-12 engine capable of redlining at 9,250 rpm and putting out a combined output of 963 horsepower alongside its hybrid powertrain. Sixty miles per hour could be achieved from a standstill in as little as 2.4 seconds, fast enough to ruffle one’s hair, quicker than a Porsche 918, McLaren P1 or Bugatti Veyron.
The Aperta brought about changes that were more significant than simply removing the roof. In terms of output, power was raised slightly to 963 bhp through re-mapped engine management electronics. The LaFerrari Aperta hybrid KERS system has been further updated and upgraded over the original 2013 specification LaFerrari battery. This not only integrates the battery power better into the overall power delivery but has also increased the longevity of the batteries. As one would expect, the chassis was strengthened to maintain structural rigidity, and the radiators were angled to reduce cabin heat. The Aperta was also fitted with a longer front air-dam to improve downforce. The opening angle of the doors needed to be changed to reflect the lack of roof, which meant the car’s wheel arches had to be completely reconfigured. The side mirrors were also relocated to allow for better airflow around the cabin.
As expected with a top-tier limited Ferrari supercar, production had been pre-sold by the time the LaFerrari Aperta was officially unveiled at the 2016 Paris Salon. Just 210 examples were built, inclusive of nine pre-production cars and a final example built especially to be sold during a charity auction held by RM Sotheby’s during Ferrari’s 70th anniversary celebrations in Maranello., With a final production run of just 201 customer cars and less than 80 US Spec cars produced this LaFerrari Aperta is by far and away the rarest of all of the Hyper Ferraris less than half the number of LaFerrari coupes built, fewer still than the Enzo, F50, F40, and even the 288 GTO.
This particular LaFerrari Aperta is finished in Rosso Corsa (DS 322) paintwork over a Nera Alcantara interior. While options for cosmetic customization were limited within the production of the LaFerrari Aperta, this example is fitted with a number of desirable optional extras. These options include the carbon-look hardtop, carbon fiber exterior package large-size seats, telemetry kit, track cameras kit, and the front and rear suspension lifter.
This example has only been driven just under 1,500 miles from new. Furthermore, it has been regularly serviced and is offered with a complete service history since new. The hybrid battery was recently inspected and found to be in healthy working condition. The car is presented in excellent condition throughout, both mechanically and cosmetically, it will stand proud in any collection, vintage or modern.
Nearly ten years on from its initial unveiling, the LaFerrari Aperta is still considered to be the single most desirable Ferrari built in the 21st century. Standing head and shoulders over its contemporary rivals from Porsche and McLaren, it will remain the king-of-the-hill for in terms of exclusivity and aural panache. Considering the heavily restricted build limitations on the automotive horizon, it’s possible the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta might be the last of Ferrari’s iconic V-12 supercars. For example, the newest Ferrari supercar the F80 has taken a further step towards electrification and is now powered by a twin turbocharged V-6 engine.
The example presented here checks all the right boxes, benefitting from regular servicing, a strong battery, low milage, and Ferrari Classiche’ certification.
