Mystery Ferrari confirmed as first car in Portfolio coachbuilding program

The mysterious Ferrari we reported about back in August, spotted lapping Ferrari's Fiorano test track in Maranello, has been confirmed as the initial car in the company's new 'Portfolio' coachbuilding program. Delivered to Japanese businessman Junichiro Hiramatsu, the car is called the SP1 and is based on an F430, reworked by Fioravanti. The completely undisguised nature of the new model suggested that this was not some secret new Ferrari model under development, but rather a special one-off model designed for a private individual – similar to the Enzo-based P4/5 built for James Glickenhaus back in 2006. Fioravanti, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, has left its fingerprints in the design of the car.
