The Ferrari Sergio, a production version of the Pininfarina has just been unveiled and the first car has already been delivered to its new owner, the SBH Royal Auto Gallery in the UAE, at Abu Dhabi’s Yas Marina Circuit.

The first Ferrari Sergio arrives in the UAE

Unveiled earlier at the 2014Geneva Auto Show, the Ferrari Sergio has now entered its limited production run of six vehicles – all of which have been sold. The car was created to celebrate the spirit and core values of the historic Cambiano Company in the 60th anniversary year of its collaboration with the Prancing Horse. It was also designed to pay tribute to Sergio Pininfarina, who helped to forge the company’s longstanding partnership with Ferrari.

A genuine radical roadster

The production model is based on the 458 Spider, retaining the latter’s technological content as well as all of the functional aspects of its cockpit. The main styling of the design is two bodyshell masses melded together via a longitudinal black insert.

There’s also a semi-floating front spoiler which helps to balance down force and optimises heat exchange, while at the rear, there’s a ventilated rear engine cover, circular taillights and a dual exhaust system. There’s also a rear diffuser and Sergio-specific forged alloy wheels.

The Ferrari Sergio delivered to Abu Dhabi features a three-layer red exterior paintwork and a sporty cockpit with black leather upholstery with contrasting red stitching, Alcantara seat inserts, and extensive carbon dash and door well trim. It also features Sergio-specific forged wheels, on this car gold in colour with a diamond finish.

Performance specifications are yet to be revealed, but Ferrari confirmed power will be provided by a 4.5-litre V8 engine that develops 445 kW, enabling the roadster to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in three seconds.

Each one of the six Ferrari Sergio’s was configured by its owner in dedicated sessions at the Tailor Made atelier in Maranello, which means each car will be unique.
