Rosso Taormina 296 in Los Angeles

I was at Sunset GT at The Petersen Auto Museum when this stunning 296 came into the parking lot painted Rosso Taormina. It's an unusual and stunning color. I don't think the photos do the color justice but I hope you enjoy.

beautiful, was this a customer car? I didn't know any were being delivered yet in the US

 

Yes. It's a customer car.

 

i can tell just by those pics that in person that color has to be spectacular

 

also- would like to know if those wheels were aftermarket powdercoated or if factory

 

These wheels appear to have a matt finish and yes I would assume they came from the factory this way. Option Code RIMM / Cost $3,881

 

what that add on price be applied to the basic polished wheel price or the basic satin, or??? what if ai wanted black polished rims.

 

thx for sharing

 

The cost for Ball Poshied Rims is the same cost as Matt Now $3,881.

The order guide is saying it is possible to add the matt finish to the following:

Standard - No additional Charge it appears - This would be new as in the past you normally had to at least go with the painted standard wheel before either going with glossy or matt finish
RMSC - $2,531
RMSV - $6,243

 

How confirmed is this - could it not be a manufacturer demo floating around pre-Quail ?

It seems very early despite that first UK car also suddenly appearing

 

Not sure a demo car would be in that color. Very unique color.

 

My comments are based on the nameplate inside the vehicle

 

Thank you for posting. More Pictures?? Please

Must be a special customer. VVIP/FOF.
1. No known US 296 customer cars delivered.
2. Ross Taormina is a Calvacade color and not available to the public yet unless you purchased a Calvacade car in that color and they have not been seen in public in the US yet either.

From TM/Atelier:

In terms of using those colors separate from the Cavalcade designs, we are unsure when they will be available for use. It probably will not be for some time.

While the Cavalcade Collection is considered a Tailor Made project, it is something the dealerships spearhead themselves. Please do keep in mind that the collection is open to clients who have participated in a Cavalcade. Your dealer can provide more information if you are interested in pursuing the Cavalcade designs.

Either way I am jealous as I have asked for my 296 GTS and /or Purosangue in this color.

 

More pics please!

In regards to the owner of the vehicle the individual did indicate ownership of several Ferraris. Also, this vehicle was built specifically for the owner and there are several features on the interior and the exterior of the vehicle that are unique to the vehicle/individual. This is why I did not post other photos of the vehicle. Bottom line is this color is incredible! Good luck getting your GTS and/or Purosangue in this color.

 

Here is another one that I can post for you ... it's my understanding the car is supposed to be at Pebble this week.

Looks like copper to me.
Sorry, don't like it.

 

Actually it looks like a dealer/temporary tag to me - if its not your car why blank the plate ?

 

That color is really cool

 

Our of respect for the owner of the car I blanked the plate.

 

Looks similar to prugna.

 

You're right! In some ways it does look like prugna

 

Wow, I missed out on this. I should have gone to this. Didn't know there were customer GTSs out there.

 

That's a GTB

 

Does it have a plum color overtone in person? Pictures are sometimes hard to tell.
