Mansory has added another Ferrari to its portfolio of tuned cars. It is the spiritual successor to the iconic Dino and goes by the name of Ferrari 296 GTB. The blue-blooded model sports modifications inside and out and under the hood, and for something that bears this tuner's signature, it is quite appealing.
Starting on the outside, Mansory's Ferrari 296 GTB features add-ons on the front and rear bumpers, a set of side skirts, fender trim, and a new diffuser. With an integrated brake light in the middle, this piece has a multi-fin design and suits the styling of the supercar. The same goes for the split rear wing and ducktail spoiler. These parts have a forged carbon look. Riding on 9x21-inch front and 11.5x22-inch rear wheels from the tuner’s YT.5 series, the vehicle has a satin black look with red accents here and there.
While the exterior is on the restrained side of things for a Mansory project, the cockpit is very lively. It features a lot of yellow in the form of fine leather upholstery that decorates most touchable parts. From the dashboard, center console, door cards, steering wheel, seats, floor, pillars, and headliner, everything wears the bright color. We can also see some red trim, and the tuner's logo on the side sills, steering wheel, floor mats, sides of the center console, headrests, and seatbelts. This is where they drew the line as far as the looks are concerned.
But don't go anywhere yet, as we still haven’t told you about the firepower. You see, the 296 GTB uses a V6 engine assisted by electricity. The total output and torque are rated at 830 ps (818 hp/610 kW) and 740 Nm (546 lb-ft), respectively, allowing the model to deal with the naught to 100 kph (0 to 62 mph) sprint in 2.9 seconds and enabling a top speed over 330 kph (205 mph). With Mansory's sports exhaust system and ECU modifications, the numbers grow to 870 ps (858 hp/640 kW) and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft). The tuner says their take on this V6-powered Ferrari is one-tenth quicker to 100 kph (62 mph), and the top speed remains unchanged.
The social media post that brought these images to our attention, accompanied by the information mentioned above, does not say anything else about this supercar. Thus, it is impossible to point out whether it is up for grabs, though if it is, then expect to pay a small fortune for it. The 296 GTB starts at over $320,000 in our market, and anything that bears Mansory's signature is much pricier than stock. Still, we don't think it is for sale; otherwise, they would've probably mentioned it, so chances are it was built for a wealthy customer.
