The Ferrari Daytona SP3 is a truly special supercar.
In an ever-growing market of the elite, the Italian marque still stands tall among them all.
Of course, the Daytona SP3 is one of the newest jewels in the crown.
And a video of the hypercar performing an amazing drift recently went viral.

November 2021 saw the Italian brand drop its latest release in its Icona series.
For those who somehow don’t know, the Icona series is something very special.
It exists to honor and celebrate the finest cars from the marque’s legendary motorsport heritage.
The Monza SP1 and SP2 were the first offerings in the series.
They were released to pay tribute to the 750 Monza and 250 Testarossa models.
Back in November 2021, the Daytona SP3 became the latest tribute model.
It serves as a direct tribute to the Ferrari cars that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
And it is powered by an incredible, naturally aspirated, 6.5-liter V12 engine.
It’s the first such naturally aspirated, mid-engine Ferrari supercar since the iconic Enzo in 2002.
This Maranello masterclass produces a mammoth 829HP.
And it’s also just one of 599 units that will ever be produced – and they’re priced at $2.5 million each.
The numbers are equally staggering, with a 0-60 time of just 2.8 seconds and a top speed north of 211MPH.
Which brings us to the topic of today’s Daytona SP3 story.
A video has been going viral on the internet over the past couple of days.
Posted in Italy by Instagram user manuelferrariph, the video is truly brilliant.
It shows, of course, the stunning Ferrari Daytona SP3 – but it’s not quite doing what you think.
Instead, the hypercar is actually drifting around a perfectly placed turning circle.
Such a show led to many fans wincing in horror.
However, it has also led to many showing their support and praise for such an amazing car.
Is it as cool as this Novitec-tuned SF90 that achieved 1019HP? Maybe, but we know which one we’d like to see drifting next…
