    Looking for a 456 GT in rosso corsa and cannot seem to find one for sale. Actually, can't even find that has been sold or a picture of one. Plenty of photos and for sale in forza red (burgundy).

    Thanks.

    The 456 was available in Rosso Corsa but not many were made in that color. I was searching for one and there are a few out there. In a years time I rad across 3 Rosso Corsa 456s for sale. Unfortunately, they were either asking too much or I was too late to call about it. Finally, I found a Rosso Fiorano that I just fell in love with so I bought it instead.

    Here is a picture of a '99 456MGT in Rosso Corsa and My '01 456MGT in Rosso Fiorano.

    i saw a rosso corsa 456 6 speed about a month ago in az at a local body shop. Nothing was wrong with it... i dont believe it was there because it was hit or anything i think they were checking on there car in the bodyshop but drove in the 456. The 456 that i saw was not damaged in any way.

    It littrely took my breath away when i saw that car. it was gorgeous. the perfect color combo. red tan... and i had never seen a red 456 before. stunning car!

    Out of the 141 RHD 456GTs, only 6 were Rossa Corsa, including my own #101964 with Crema Leather.

    Check out www.456gt.com for some pictures.

    Most cars in the UK seem to be blue or silver.

    MUCH more elegant in Rosso Fiorano, but quite the sexy beast in resale red as well. 456GT: You just can't lose!

    There's a guy I know with one here in Dallas. He was thinking about trying to sell it last year. Mine is the Monza/Fiorano red.

    Never seen the Rosso Fiorano for real.
    Not bad, not bad at all Kent.
    In fact I should just say: great colour ! also the SF shields contrast very nicely with the exterior.

    Thanks!
    Like I said, when I saw the car I fell in love with it. The Rosso Fiorano with the yellow shields and it also has the red calipers.
    The interior is also quite unique. It has Charcoal Daytona seats with matching charcoal dash and steering wheel.

    Very nice interior. I like it better than the light-coloured 456 interiors I've seen.
