A New York collector who bought a Ferrari Daytona SP3 for $2.3 million has sold the Italian supercar for a staggering $18.5 million.
The supercar recently went under the hammer at the second annual Broad Arrow Auctions Las Vegas Sale. It had only done 80 miles since it was sold two years ago.
While a Ferrari can go up in value, the last thing anyone expects is for it to shoot up so rapidly in just a two-year period.
The rise from $2.3 million to $18.5 million means this supercar’s value has shot up by 794 percent over just two years.
Why is this Ferrari Daytona SP3 so special?
This particular Ferrari is chassis number 314846.
The owner originally ordered it through Ferrari North America in Englewood, New Jersey, and Ferrari of Long Island delivered it.
The official paperwork and the car’s ‘Yellow Book’ show that it was built in October 2024.
The sale of the supercar followed not long after.
But what makes this particular Daytona SP3 so special?
Well, one thing is the color: Verde Franesca, an ultra-rare shade on this Daytona SP3.
This color is available through Maranello’s Tailor Made program.
It costs an extra $42,185, which is as expensive as a lot of actual cars.
The car also has a removable carbon fiber targa hardtop.
Driving just 80 miles
That hardtop matches the lower bodywork trims, front splitter, side sills, and the rear decklid.
There are also custom airbrushed Scuderia Ferrari shields on the fenders.
The supercar comes with Pirelli P Zero Corsa high-performance tires.
These have only had to do 81 miles since the car rolled off the production line.
This has very much been a garage queen supercar, and it means the car is very much brand new.
With a 6.5-liter V12 producing 829hp and 514lb-ft of torque, you might have expected the owner to enjoy it a bit more.
It’s also fast, with a 0- 60mph time of just 2.75 seconds and a top speed of over 211mph.
The rarity of the Ferrari Daytona SP3
It will also be the rarity of the Daytona SP3 that has played a part in its value shooting up.
Maranello is producing just 600 examples of the supercar, making them one of the rarest in the world.
Add in the rare color and extras such as its Nero Alcantara and Mustard Aunde Jeans interior colors, and it all adds up.
The new owner of the car is also going to go home with Maranello’s special-series certification.
On top of that are custom red leather luggage, driving gloves, and even a 1:8 scale model of the car by Amalgam.
All of that has contributed to the price of this Ferrari rising by nearly 800 percent.
