Just in case following in the footsteps of the 288 GTO, F40, F50, and Enzo was not a tall enough order, Ferrari did little to dampen the anticipation surrounding its first hybrid hypercar. A reputation preceded the newest model when it was announced that the official name would be “LaFerrari”. Utilising a Formula 1-style powertrain, whereby an internal combustion engine was fed by an electric motor, this was to be the definitive Maranello creation of its era.
Between 2013 and 2016, just 499 coupé examples of the LaFerrari were built to complete the so-called “Holy Trinity” alongside the rivalling McLaren P1 and Porsche 918. It was the Italian stallion that boasted the highest power output of the three, courtesy of a naturally aspirated, 6,262-cc V-12 engine that howled up to 9,250 rpm and worked with a 120 kW hybrid system to generate 963 horsepower. That launched the car from 0 to 100 km/h in only 2.9 seconds while Ferrari quoted a top speed in excess of 350 km/h. All told, the LaFerrari could lap the Fiorano test track a staggering five seconds quicker than its Enzo predecessor.
The example offered here was delivered new to Luxembourg via the famed official French Ferrari importer, Charles Pozzi of Paris. First registered on 31 March 2015, this LaFerrari was presented predominantly in the historic shade of Giallo, specially commissioned by the owner in celebration of the marque’s famous shield logo and Modena home—the steering wheel is notably inscribed with the city’s “Avia pervia” motto. The original invoice (available to view on file) shows that this car was specified with a carbon fibre finish for the elegant mirror arms, front splitter and rear diffuser, plus the F1-style rear fog light housing. These beautiful details were protected by the factory installation of paint protection film.
A similar treatment was given to the focused cabin, which features a carbon fibre dashboard complemented by yellow accenting trim, plus the famous Cavallino stitched into the headrests of the race-style bucket seats equipped with black, four-point harnesses.
Originally, this car wore a set of Argento Nürburgring-painted, five-spoke wheels to sit over yellow callipers for the carbon ceramic brakes. While these original rims still accompany the LaFerrari, it currently wears centre-locking, forged aluminium items as found on the track-only FXX-K.
Subsequently acquired by the consignor, a collector of numerous special-edition Ferraris, the LaFerrari heads to auction displaying 3,459 kilometres from new at the time of cataloguing. It is further complemented by its folio containing owner’s guides plus “Yellow Book” for special edition models. The car notably benefits from a recent two-year extended warranty and routine maintenance package that now runs through to March 2026.
Proudly sitting as the halo Ferrari road car for the best part of a decade, the LaFerrari has indeed lived up to its name and the reputations of its celebrated predecessors. The opportunity to acquire this sparingly driven and beautifully specified example is not to be missed.
