With a body designed by Pininfarina and built by Ferrari's
Scaglietti coachworks, the 612 Scaglietti was a true grand tourer
that replaced the outgoing 456M. While the name paid homage to
Ferrari's preferred coachbuilder for its greatest sports-racing
models, the scalloped door design evoked the one-off 375 MM that
was ordered by Roberto Rossellini, the husband of actress Ingrid
Bergman. That car eventually became the first Ferrari to ever win
the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
This beautifully maintained 612 benefits from a mildly used life in
the hands of only two caretakers, the first of whom owned it for 15
years. Chassis no. 138987 was finished in Grigio Ingrid (very
fitting) and appointed with a sumptuous two-tone interior of beige
and Cuoio leather. Optioned with modular alloy wheels, red brake
calipers, Scuderia fender shields, automatically powered and heated
Daytona seats with matching Cuoio bolsters, a leather headliner,
and a black tachometer, the Scaglietti was delivered to its first
owner via Ferrari of Central Florida in Orlando.
As reflected by the CARFAX report, the owner serviced the Ferrari
at respected marque dealerships in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm
Beach, including a belt service in April 2015. A subsequent invoice
from late 2019 details a timing belt and tensioner pulley
replacement, along with a fluid flush, performed by North Coast
Exotics of Cleveland, Ohio. Under the care of the consignor the car
received a further $4,000 in documented service in 2020; its
odometer currently displays fewer than 8,300 miles.
The sensationally detailed 612 Scaglietti is accompanied by its
original manuals and warranty card, toolkit, battery tender, and
documentation of recent work performed. Ideal for Maranello
enthusiasts intent on providing stylish and powerful transport for
multiple passengers, it would make a wonderful addition to any
grand touring collection. To view this car and others currently
