A rare Ferrari Daytona SP3, one of just 599 ever produced, is now up for sale in Dubai with a staggering price tag of $5.7 million. This particular model, currently listed by F1rst Motors, boasts a one-of-a-kind BP Green finish and an extra touch of exclusivity—signatures from Ferrari Formula 1 drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz etched onto its 6.5-liter V12 engine.
The Daytona SP3, unveiled in 2021, is part of Ferrari’s Icona series, a line of ultra-limited models inspired by the marque’s racing heritage. This specific edition pays homage to Ferrari’s legendary 1-2-3 victory at the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, incorporating a futuristic yet retro design that blends sharp aerodynamics with classic Ferrari styling cues. Its wraparound windshield, aggressive air intakes, and sleek, layered rear lights give it a striking road presence reminiscent of endurance racers from the past.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Daytona SP3 is a powerhouse. Under the hood, its naturally aspirated V12 engine produces 829 horsepower and 514 lb-ft of torque, enabling a 0-62 mph sprint in just 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 212 mph. With a 9,500 rpm redline, the engine delivers a soundtrack that stays true to Ferrari’s high-revving tradition.
Despite its track-ready performance, the Daytona SP3 has barely seen the road, with fewer than 400 miles on the odometer. The gold-signed engine cover, bearing the autographs of Leclerc and Sainz—who were Ferrari teammates from 2021 to 2024—adds an extra layer of collectibility.
The asking price of 21 million AED ($5.7 million) is more than double the car’s original $2.3 million base price. However, for collectors and Ferrari enthusiasts, the combination of rarity, performance, and Formula 1 pedigree makes this Daytona SP3 an undeniable statement piece in the world of ultra-exclusive supercars.
