2023 | Ferrari 812 GTS
Overview
The Ferrari 812 GTS marked a significant milestone in the prestigious Italian automaker's history when it was unveiled in 2019. This model was developed as a more versatile and open-air version of the already impressive 812 Superfast. The design team at Ferrari faced the challenge of integrating a retractable hardtop without compromising the car's aerodynamics and performance. They achieved this with innovative engineering, incorporating a roof mechanism that could fold neatly behind the seats, ensuring the car's sleek profile remained undisturbed. In addition, the Ferrari engineers meticulously tuned the car's chassis and suspension to compensate for the slight increase in weight and change in center of gravity due to the convertible design. These innovations ensured that the 812 GTS retained the exhilarating driving dynamics renowned for the brand.
Technologically, the 812 GTS is a marvel of its time, equipped with a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine, one of the last of its kind amidst the rising trend of turbocharged and hybrid powertrains. This engine could produce an astonishing 789 horsepower*, making the 812 GTS one of the most potent production convertibles in the world at its release. The car also boasted advanced aerodynamic features, such as sophisticated underbody vortex generators and an active rear diffuser, which optimized downforce and stability at high speeds. The interior was equally impressive, blending luxury with functionality and featuring state-of-the-art infotainment and driver-assistance systems. The Ferrari 812 GTS thus stood as a testament to the brand's commitment to pushing the boundaries of automotive design and engineering.
The 2023 Ferrari 812 GTS offered here is a highly optioned example, featuring over $50,000 in desirable extras for an ideal combination of performance, comfort, and drivability. Inside, the sport seats are upholstered in handsome Cuoio leather, which extends to the dashboard, doors, and carbon fiber steering wheel. A sea of black Alcantara trim clads the central tunnel, lower dashboard, and seat inserts, providing an appealing contrast. Comfort continues with the premium Infotelematic Audio System, and safety follows in the form of the rear radar and copious parking sensors. Outside, the car is finished in striking Grigio Silverstone and features the unmistakable shields of Scuderia Ferrari, from which much of its technology is derived. Magnetorheological dampers, carbon ceramic brakes, and a side slip control differential are some of the technologies that prove Ferrari's prowess. At the same time, the suspension lift system ensures the vehicle is simple to pilot even at slow speeds around town. Few cars can deliver the power and thrill of a V12 in a form factor as sleek and desirable as a Ferrari, and the 812 GTS may be the ideal Spider on the market today. It is now offered with a Carfax report and a third-party inspection report. The title is in transit and will arrive approximately three weeks after the auction closes.
