Penned by the Centro Stile Ferrari in collaboration with designers in Pininfarina and engineers in Maranello, the Ferrari SP12 EC
bespoke model commissioned by acclaimed musician Eric Clapton has been
revealed. Ferrari have not described the model in detail as it is an
exclusive creation.
The
SP12 EC is a product of Ferrari's One-Off program that is credited with
projects such as the Ferrari Super America 45 and the Ferrari P540
Superfast Aperta. It sits on the 458 Italia platform and is designed
around the 512 BB, a car Clapton had the chance to cherish.
Ferrari have not revealed the technical specifications of what is
driving this model. Speculations point to a 4.5-liter V8 engine with
560bhp and 540Nm of torque, lurking under the bonnet. With these
outputs, it should rocket the SP12 EC from 0-100 km/h in less than 3.4
seconds accelerate it past 325 km/h.
The world famous guitar player said the project was 'essentially, a
blank canvas,' and was 'one of the most satisfying things I've ever
done.'
