Introduced in 2019, the Ferrari SF90 Stradale has been around long enough to spawn a few hardcore versions. I'm talking about the lightened Assetto Fiorano with racing-derived tech and the track-focused XX version. The latter is the first Ferrari XX that's road-legal. Additionally, the SF90 can be customized via the exclusive Tailor Made program.
Most Ferraris ordered through this program are usually subdued, as many of the unique features are hidden inside the cabin. The SF90 you see here, however, will stand out just about anywhere, thanks to its race-inspired livery. Ferrari aficionados will immediately recognize it as a tribute to one of the most iconic Ferrari race cars.

If you're unfamiliar with "11" roundels on Argento Nurburgring paint, this SF90 pays tribute to a very specific 1957 Ferrari 625 TRC. It's modeled after chassis #0672, which is the winningest car in Ferrari motorsport history.

Not to be confused with the 625 F1 car, the Ferrari 625 TRC was part of the Monza series, which the Italian company produced from 1953 to 1957. The lineage also included the 625 TF, 735 S, 500 Mondial, 750 Monza, and the 500 TR. Raced in 1956, the latter spawned the 500 TRC. The 625 TRC is based on the 500 TRC and is quite a rare gem. Ferrari built only two units, and both were shipped to John von Neumann, owner of the Ferrari Representatives of California dealership.

Initially powered by a 2.5-liter inline-four engine, chassis #0672 was later equipped with a 3.4-liter unit from the 860 Monza and then re-fitted with a 250 Testa Rossa V12 in 1958. Using these engines, the 625 TRC scored 25 wins in just over 50 races, more than any other Ferrari.

Driven by John von Neumann, Richard Ginther, and Ken Miles, chassis #0672 triumphed at Laguna Seca, Salt Lake City, Riverside, Nassau, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Pomona, and Sacramento.

Back to the SF90 in question, the white racing roundels aren't the only features that set this Spider apart. The car has nearly $200,000 in factory options, including carbon-fiber side air splitters, an engine cover, a rear diffuser, and a spoiler. The Tailor Made interior features an airbrushed logo, a special plate in silver, and red leather with white piping and black accents.

Built in 2022 and showing only 190 miles (306 km) on the odometer, the one-off Ferrari SF90 Spider crossed the auction block for $1.1 million at Barrett-Jackson's Palm Beach 2024 auction. For reference, the SF90 Spider starts at nearly $600,000. If we also factor in the option, the seller made a profit of around $300K, which isn't bad for a modern supercar that's only two years old.

The SF90 uses a hybrid drivetrain that pairs a twin-turbo, 4.0-liter V8 gasoline engine with three electric motors. With all components running at full blast, the SF90 hits the asphalt with 986 horsepower and needs only 2.5 seconds to reach 62 mph (100 kph) from a standing start.
