Vehicle Description
Chassis No. ZFF77XJA8J0231161
To mark 70 years of creating some of the most recognizable bespoke
color schemes and racing liveries in automotive history, Ferrari's
Tailor Made division offered 70 legendary liveries from the
marque's illustrious past on limited-edition examples of its modern
lineup. This particular California T draws its inspiration from one
of the most evocative and iconic coachbuilt Ferraris ever created:
the ex-Ingrid Bergman 375 MM Coupe Speciale.
Commissioned in 1954 by actress Ingrid Bergman's husband, director
Roberto Rossellini, chassis 0456 AM was finished by Pinin Farina in
a distinctive champagne-gold shade-the iconic paint color that
Ferrari would name Grigio Ingrid after its intended
owner-complemented by tan leather upholstery. Unveiled in Paris in
1954, the striking one-off design incorporated inboard rotating
headlights and bulbous, faired-over fenders into a sweeping
streamlined profile that united the nose, greenhouse, and
buttressed rear quarters into one continuous curve. Though Bergman
never took delivery due to her divorce from Rossellini, the car
remains forever linked to the Swedish three-time Academy Award
winner and continues to be revered as one of Maranello's most
significant coachbuilt creations.
Paying homage to this special Ferrari, The Ingrid livery was
available on one special edition example of each contemporary
Ferrari model-the California T, 488 GTB, 488 Spider, F12berlinetta,
and GTC4 Lusso-for a strictly limited run of just five vehicles
worldwide. As a result, the California T presented here is the sole
example finished in a tribute to the ex-Ingrid Bergman 375 MM Coupe
Speciale, wearing Grigio Ingrid paintwork with a subtly dark-chrome
grille and silver-chromed wheels. Inside, a Nero and Ochre Connolly
Vaumol leather interior is trimmed in a ribbed pattern on the
seats, joined by vintage-style rubber floor mats evoking Ferrari
Gran Turismos of the '50s and '60s. A special dedication plaque on
the center console lid reads "11 inspired by 375 MM Pinin Farina
berlinetta 1954."
In addition to its coveted 70th Anniversary designation-a
$55,606.44 premium according to the original window sticker-the
California T was also equipped with the Special Handling Package
($7,227), Full Electric Seats ($6,242), and a Foldable Rear Seats
Backrest ($1,687). A further $87,484 in "Special Options" included
"Scuderia Ferrari" Shields, Glossy Black Brake Calipers, Yellow Rev
Counter, Cavallino Stitched on Headrest, Leather Headliner, Leather
Lower Dashboard, and more, with the total original MSRP reaching
$373,286.44.
Originally delivered to Ferrari of Central Florida in late 2017,
this example remained with the original owner in showroom
condition, recording a mere 124 miles at the time of its
acquisition by the second owner through Broad Arrow's 2022 Monterey
Jet Center Auction. Under the care of its current owner, the
Ferrari was relocated to Southampton in the United Kingdom before
returning to the United States in 2025.
Throughout this period, the car has been maintained in
climate-controlled storage with the engine being started every two
months. The California T has also received two services within the
Ferrari dealer network, with all maintenance documented in the
car's logbook. Following each service, the current owner conducted
a brief 10-mile road test to verify proper operation-the only times
the car has been driven on public roads during current ownership.
Now with fewer than 200 total miles traveled, this car remains
essentially as it left Maranello.
As one of only five 70th Anniversary models adorned with "The
Ingrid" livery from Ferrari's Tailor Made division, and the only
California T of its kind, this outstanding limited-edition Ferrari
combines the company's heritage with modern performance and over
$170,000 in exclusive options. With only two private owners from
new, this California is ideal for any collector with an
appreciation for the marque's history seeking a like-new
example.
