Ladies and gentlemen Ferraristi, we can now show you the first images of the Ferrari SPJ3C, which is the rumored open-top incarnation of the 812 Superfast F12 TDF. The private introduction of the V12 model took place this week in Maranello, as we are probably talking about a one-off.
As you can notice in these average-quality images, the fresh styling cues start from the front fascia, which has a more complex design compared to that of the 812 F12 Tour De France - lens tip to the Magazin Pro Driver CZ Facebook page for the pics.
Then there's the hood, which comes with a pair of transparent panels that allow us to gaze at the engineering marvel that is the naturally aspirated V12 motor animating the super-GT.
Compared to the F60 America, which is the F12 Berlinetta based open-air limited edition (10 units), the rear deck shows a more elegant design, with the two protection elements behind the seats being linked by an aero piece. Oh, and let's not forget the side windows, whose upper lines make the car looks fast even when standing still.
As before, it seems that the vehicle features a folding hardtop.
When it comes to the rear fascia, this sports massive horizontal gills, while packing a complicated diffuser design and a massive lower side.
For now, these pics are all we have, with the image of the dashboard logo revealing the nameplate of the car. Note that we're looking at a right-hand-drive model here.
One of the photos allows us to check out the owner (the aficionado in the middle, with the sun shades). We're talking about John Collins (this explains the nameplate), the man who founded Talacrest. You know, the British dealer who sold over 1,750 Ferraris since its late 80s debut.
So yes, this machine is most likely a one-off, but at least we know its owner cherishes the thing - who knows, maybe those in the market for such a contraption will be able to buy a used Monza SP1/SP2...
