These days in Geneva everybody is celebrating something and the Italians have their own party. The host is Pininfarina and the guest of honor is the Ferrari Sergio limited edition.
Once a concept, the Ferrari Sergio lived on to receive a production version that pays tribute to design mastermind Sergio Pininfarina. But since Italians will be Italians, only six cars will ever be built and guess what, all of them have already been sold. Surprised? You shouldn’t be.

We’re talking about a supercar equipped with a naturally aspirated 4.5-liter V8 engine - coming from the Ferrari 458 Speciale Aperta - capable of delivering 605 HP and shooting from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3 seconds. If we’re not mistaken, the Ferrari Sergio is now among the fastest custom built cabriolets in the world.

Watching the roadster from a close range, we’re basically hypnotized by the flashy colored body kit but most of all, we like how the back end of the Ferrari Sergio presents itself. We couldn’t say exactly why, but it has that ‘je ne sais quoi’ that can’d be rendered in words. Oh, and those circular taillights...

There’s also a ventilated engine cover plus a special roll bar that has built-in air intakes, a dual exhaust system and unique alloy wheels, but you’ll get the whole picture after browsing through the photo gallery.

The cabin is almost 100% carried over from the 458 Spider with sport seats wrapped in leather and Alcantara with red contrast stitching. The flat-bottomed steering wheel also looks really appealing and the surrounding carbon fiber trim rounds up the overall supercar aura of the Sergio.
