The LaFerrari Aperta is the open-top version of the LaFerrari and was displayed at the 2016 Paris Motor Show. It features a removable carbon-fiber hardtop and, in addition, a removable fabric soft top. Due to the absence of a roof, engineers modified the airflow: reoriented radiators, a longer front spoiler, and small flaps on the windshield pillars. A total of 210 units were built; the final one was auctioned off for 8.3 million euros to benefit Save the Children, making it the most expensive 21st-century Ferrari.

Good to know

  • Of the 210 units, 200 were sold, nine were reserved for Ferrari's 70th anniversary celebrations, and one was auctioned later.
  • All 200 cars were already sold by invitation to clients prior to the presentation.
  • The final Aperta fetched 8.3 million euros at RM Sotheby's, several times the estimated price of 2.4 to 3.3 million euros.
  • In early July 2016, Ferrari revealed the first images of the open-top LaFerrari.

Changes compared to the coupé

Without a roof, the aerodynamics had to be adapted. The radiators were reoriented to direct air along the underbody rather than over the hood, and a longer front spoiler increases downforce. An L-shaped flap on the upper corner of each windshield pillar reduces pressure in the rear section of the cabin. In addition, there are more efficient powertrain control electronics, revised door opening angles with adapted wheel arches, and a new carbon-fiber insert that enables the doors to rotate.

Name and sales

As with earlier open-top Ferraris, "Aperta" designates the removable roof. Already upon releasing the images, Ferrari announced that the car was sold out following an exclusive client preview. The 210th Aperta went under the hammer to benefit the charity Save the Children.
