Chassis and bodywork
The SA Aperta uses the more powerful engine and transmission from the 599 GTO. Compared to the 599 GTB, the windshield is raked slightly flatter, the new front bumper features larger cooling ducts, and the rear bumper is finished in body color. The exhaust system is a modified version of the unit in the 599XX, complemented by dedicated five-spoke wheels in a chrome finish.
Interior and roof
The interior was redesigned and features a two-tone layout, with sports seats fitted as standard. The removable soft top is intended only for city driving and as rain protection for the cabin. Aerodynamic drag increases due to the lack of a fixed roof, reducing top speed by 10 km/h.
