2011 599

The Ferrari 599 SA Aperta stands as one of Maranello’s rarest and most exclusive creations. Revealed in 2010 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of Pininfarina, the SA Aperta was produced in an ultra-limited run of just 80 cars worldwide, each meticulously hand-finished and allocated only to Ferrari’s most loyal and discerning clients. The “SA” pays tribute to Sergio and Andrea Pininfarina, while “Aperta” — meaning “open” in Italian — signifies its breathtaking open-top design.

At its core, the SA Aperta is based on the highly acclaimed 599 GTO, sharing its 6.0-litre naturally aspirated V12 producing 661 horsepower, capable of breathtaking performance figures: 0–100 km/h in just over 3 seconds and a top speed in excess of 325 km/h. This is not only a convertible GT, but also one of the most engaging front-engined V12 Ferraris ever built — an uncompromising blend of elegance, rarity, and raw power.

What makes this car extraordinary:
• The only SA Aperta in Australia – a true one-of-one opportunity in the country.
• One of just 8 right-hand drive examples in the world – placing it among the rarest configurations globally.
• Incredibly low mileage: just 379 km from new – one of the lowest-mileage Apertas in existence worldwide.
• Ferrari Classiche Certification – officially confirming its authenticity, originality, and pedigree as a collectible of the highest order.
• Finished in the timeless specification of Nero Stellato exterior with Crema leather interior, perfectly balancing sophistication and contrast.
• Presented in collector-grade condition, reflecting both its rarity and meticulous care.

The SA Aperta’s design is instantly recognisable — a lower, more steeply raked windscreen, two subtle roll hoops integrated into the rear deck, and bespoke bodywork that distinguishes it from the standard 599. With the roof open, the car offers an intoxicating V12 soundtrack, unobstructed and immersive, creating a driving experience few modern Ferraris can rival.

For the collector, the significance of the SA Aperta cannot be overstated:
• It is among the rarest front-engined V12 Ferraris of the modern era.
• With only 80 produced globally, supply is permanently capped and demand from top-tier collections remains strong.
• The example offered here — being the only one in Australia, one of just eight RHD examples worldwide, showing only 379 km from new, finished in Nero Daytona over Crema, and accompanied by Ferrari Classiche certification — sits in the absolute upper echelon of desirability worldwide.

This Ferrari 599 SA Aperta represents not only a masterpiece of Ferrari engineering and Pininfarina design, but also an investment-grade collectible, perfectly suited to a high-value collection that demands the rarest, most pristine examples.
