    Hi all,

    I have fallen in love with the colour seemingly called “Tan Brown Metallic” and want to paint one of my Ferraris this colour.

    As far as I can see, after losing hours of my life on google(!), this colour was used on 2x 70th anniversary cars, a UK based 488 spider and a US F12, both known as “The Tartan” (presumably given their matching tartan interiors).

    The 488:

    The F12:

    The instagram caption of the F12 states it is “Marrone Metallizzato” but that’s a much less bronze, more dull colour (I have already had a spray out of this done).

    I am looking for a paint code for this “Tan Brown Metallic” colour or any help please.

    Many thanks in advance for any help - it will be gratefully received!

    Wishing you all the best for 2023.

    Duke

    Merlin, congrats that's a great choice , I also fell in love with brown Ferrari colors

    I made some research about those in the past, and the paint name "Marrone metallizzato" seems to be the name of different shades

    I'm almost sure the 488 is painted in a different color than the Tartan F12's

    The paint on the 488 represent the absolute perfection when it comes to Ferrari brown IMO, I would have taken it for a 812 GTS with a nasty upper quality tan leather

    There's a 812 (Pic at the bottom) in a brown color I also love, impossible to have the official name

    It reminds me a lot of a BMW color called "Marrakesh Brown" (See the M3 below )

    The "tartan" brown seem to be more "Chocolate" and less "Bronze" than the 488

    I'll dig my archives today and will come up if I find something

    Happy new Ferrari year everyone
