First registered in September 2006, the odometer shows just 17, 469 miles from new, which is supported by the main dealer and marque specialist maintenance history. This 575 Superamerica is one of just 559 examples produced worldwide, and it is understood to be one of just 63 right-hand-drive cars. Finished in Nero Daytona Paintwork with Crema Leather interior. Probably the best colour combination for a Grand Touring Ferrari.

2006MY car with updated electronics / management system.
Introduced in 2005, the 575 Superamerica was a limited-production convertible version of the 575M, and featured a pivoting ‘Revochromic’ carbon-fibre and glass roof, which was developed in collaboration with Italian glass specialist Saint Gobain, and takes just seven seconds to convert the car from a closed ‘coupe’ to a convertible.
The ‘Revochromic’ roof also features five degrees of electrically adjustable tint.
The model was further distinguished by a carbon-fibre boot lid with a raised Ferrari shield, a concave rear screen, aluminium mesh on the front grilles, and aluminium accents around the headlights.
This 575 Superamerica is finished in Nero Daytona over a Crema leather-trimmed interior with contrasting stitching, featuring a contrasting black upper dashboard and carpets, with aluminium and carbon-fibre trim accents.
It rides on a set of 19-inch five-spoke split-rim alloy wheels with yellow centre caps, framing silver Ferrari-branded callipers, and shod in Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tyres.
The factory specification includes rear parking sensors, headlamp washers, Scuderia wing shields, a Giallo rev-counter, climate control, switchable sport mode, electrically adjustable seats with two-position driver memory, the car retains its Ferrari-branded media system with satellite navigation.
The car comes with all the owner’s manuals with a tan leather wallet, two keys with red leather Joe Macari Servicing fob pouches, a service booklet, and a complete toolkit in a tan leather pouch.
The Nero Daytona paintwork is generally in excellent condition, and the seller notes that a full Topaz paint protection film has been applied.
Stepping inside, the cabin is presented in great shape given the car’s age.
The most recent MOT at 16, 811 miles, was a clean first-time pass. The car will be delivered with a new MOT on sale.
The most recent maintenance at 15, 393 miles by H. R. Owen, consisted of an engine oil and filter change, a new air filter, brake fluid, new cambelts and an air conditioning service.
The tyres have also been replaced.
This Ferrari 575 Superamerica is a very rare and well-presented example of the marque’s limited-production open-top grand tourer, offered with low mileage from new. One of just 559 examples produced worldwide, with only 63 known to be right-hand drive, the car’s pivoting roof allows the driver to experience the full aural drama of the glorious naturally aspirated V12 engine. This 575 Superamerica would make a distinguished addition to any marque enthusiast’s collection, and an exciting companion for weekend blasts or longer-distance touring.
