The twin-turbo V8 of the Ferrari SP38, a one-off car that borrowed many of its design elements from some of the brand's most famous sports cars such as the F40, added to the symphony.
The most powerful Ferrari spider ever built, the SF90 Spider, enhanced the concerto with a twin-turbo V8 that has a class-leading power output of 780cv and is linked to three electric motors that deliver an additional 220cv.
The 812 Competizione, an exclusive limited series car based on the award-winning 812 Superfast, joined the crescendo, with the distinctive and aggressive sound of its improved version of the latest naturally-aspirated Ferrari V12 engine, which is able to generate the enormous amount of 830cv.
The Red Dot "Best of the Best" Design award winner, the Daytona SP3, named after the 24 Hours of Daytona and inspired by the styling of the classic endurance race cars of the 1960s such the 330 P3 and P4, brought the grand finale to a close.
Another iconic Ferrari, the Monza SP2, which was inspired by Ferrari barchettas from the 1950s, and the 2+2 granturismo front-engined V8, the Ferrari Roma, which personifies the La Nuova Dolce Vita lifestyle in Italy, completed the orchestra of Ferrari cars.
Lastly, the most exclusive Ferrari track-focused program, the Corse Clienti XX Program, was represented by the 599XX Evo and the FXX-K Evo.
