U Spot: Notice Anything Different About this Ferrari…GT Aperta?


Carscoop reader Jonathan Y. emailed us these pictures of a Ferrari SA Aperta with a few styling twists that he snapped in Switzerland.

Jonathan tells us that the Italian roadster looked original but featured some differences over the regular model including a 'GT Aperta' logo finished in black at the rear end of the car.

Revealed at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the standard SA Aperta is a roadster version of the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano equipped with the 599 GTO coupe's more potent 6.0-liter V12 producing an output of 661hp (670PS) and a peak torque of 620Nm (457 lb-ft).
