Ferrari Daytona SP3
2022–2025 · Ferrari Daytona SP3 — Hypercar, V12, designed by Ferrari Styling Centre (Flavio Manzoni).
The Story
The Daytona SP3 is the third chapter in Ferrari’s ‘Icona’ series — the limited program launched in 2018 with the Monza SP1/SP2 that resurrects the spirit of legendary Ferraris in cars built with the latest technology. Unveiled 20 November 2021, it reaches back to one intoxicating moment: the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, where the 330 P3/4, 330 P4 and 412 P crossed the line in formation for a 1-2-3. Penned by the Ferrari Styling Centre under Flavio Manzoni, the targa-roofed SP3 borrows the P3/4’s wraparound screen and the muscular sculpted-fender language of the 1960s prototypes, then wraps it around a bespoke hand-laid carbon-fibre tub.
At its heart sits the reason enthusiasts genuflect: a 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 (F140 HC) making 840 PS (~828 hp) at a screaming 9,250 rpm with a 9,500-rpm redline — the most powerful naturally aspirated road-car engine Ferrari has ever built, derived from the 812 Competizione’s F140 HB and uncorked further. No turbo, no hybrid, no electrical crutch — just twelve cylinders and physics. It marked Ferrari’s return to a mid-mounted NA V12 limited special with no hybrid support, a layout unseen since the 2002 Enzo.
With 599 examples built, each ~€2 million (roughly $2.25M) and long spoken for, the Daytona SP3 is a halo statement of intent. In an industry sprinting toward electrification, Ferrari chose to build a mid-engined, normally aspirated V12 hypercar in retro-prototype couture — a defiant, gorgeous love letter to the analogue soul of the brand.

Studio Motors POV
The Daytona SP3 is the most romantic kind of halo — Ferrari spending its engineering capital not on lap-time bragging rights but on preserving the naturally aspirated V12 as an emotional artifact. In a hybrid-and-turbo world, building the most powerful NA road V12 ever and wrapping it in 1967 prototype couture is exactly the flex Maranello should be making.

What Reviewers Said About Daytona SP3
Worth Knowing About the Daytona SP3

- • The seats aren't adjustable — they're integrated directly into the carbon tub; to set the driving position the PEDAL BOX moves to the driver, an F1-derived solution for a lower, single-seater-style posture.

Provenance
Owners & what to look for
Famous Owners
David Lee — prominent Ferrari collector/brand ambassador; took delivery of his Daytona SP3 (exposed green carbon, gold wheels) in 2024 (duPont Registry). Gordon Ramsay — added a white Daytona SP3 to his collection, spotted outside his Mayfair restaurant (The Supercar Blog, Feb 2025). The $26M ‘599+1’ buyer is an unnamed collector → not asserted.
Studio Buyer’s Brief
The entire 599-unit allocation sold out before deliveries, so this is a closed, blue-chip set — availability is purely secondary-market, and values trade well above the ~$2.25M MSRP (the $26M ‘599+1’ charity sale set the ceiling for Ferrari’s modern halos). Prioritise Tailor Made spec, documented provenance/delivery history, and originality of exposed-carbon and livery details, which strongly drive desirability. The combination of last-of-an-era NA V12, limited run and Icona pedigree makes it a cornerstone modern collectible, not a speculative flier.

Questions
Daytona SP3 FAQ
What engine powers the Ferrari Daytona SP3?
The Daytona SP3 is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 (code F140 HC) producing 829 hp (840 PS) at 9,250 rpm with a 9,500 rpm redline. Drive goes to the rear wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, with 0-62 mph in 2.85 seconds and a 211 mph (340 km/h) top speed.
What does the Daytona SP3 name refer to?
The Daytona SP3 name evokes Ferrari’s iconic Sports Prototypes and the historic 1-2-3 finish at the 1967 Daytona 24 Hours by the 330 P3/4, 330 P4, and 412 P. ‘SP3’ as a name is not officially explained by Ferrari as ‘Sports Prototype 3’ — it references the sports-prototype heritage and follows the SP1/SP2 Monza naming convention.
How does the Ferrari Daytona SP3 relate to the Monza SP1 and SP2?
The Monza SP1 and SP2, unveiled in 2018, were the first cars in Ferrari’s Icona limited-edition series; the Daytona SP3, unveiled in November 2021, is the second. Both series draw design inspiration from Ferrari’s racing history — the Monza SP from 1940s and 1950s barchetta prototypes, the Daytona SP3 from the mid-engine sports prototypes of the 1960s including the 330 P3/P4 and 312 P.

A 2024 Daytona SP3 in unique Tailor Made specification sold for CHF 5,348,750 (approximately 5.9 million dollars at the time of sale) at RM Sotheby’s Zurich in October 2025, the highest lot in the Tailored for Speed collection. A separately produced 600th charity example also sold for 26 million dollars at RM Sotheby’s Monterey in August 2025, with all proceeds benefiting The Ferrari Foundation.
