Some of you can claim that money can't buy happiness, but we disagree. We think each of you would be happy if you had enough cash to have Ferrari's Special Projects team build you a bespoke variant of any one of its current crop of cars. The SP275 RW Competizione is the group's latest creation. It was shown for the first time at the year-ending Finali Mondiali event at Daytona International Speedway. We guess that the car was created for a very special customer.
The 275SP appears to be based on the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta in either standard or TdF guise. The F12 TdF debuted at last year's Finali Mondiali. Based on design elements like the louvers behind the wheels, it seems likely that the new model started as a TdF. That means special touches like a front-mid-mounted 769-horsepower V12 and rear-wheel steering. It also means that the car can reach 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds. It's difficult to say how much the 275SP weighs, though the F12 TdF is about 240 pounds lighter than the standard F12 Berlinetta.
Tastes differ, so you'll have to decide for yourself whether the new styling queues, like a redesigned front fascia, hood, doors, and glass, are an improvement. It's unlikely you'll find this particular shade of gold on another Ferrari. To our eyes, it looks like the Solarbeam Yellow hue that's available on the Mercedes-AMG GT for $9,900. The takeaway should be that if you have the means, Ferrari Special projects will build whatever you want. Money may not buy happiness directly, but it will sure as hell buy you a stunning Ferrari.
