Ferrari Monza SP1 For Sale

The Ferrari Monza and the Icona series: concept, context, and engineering

The Ferrari Icona programme was announced in September 2018 as a series of limited-production vehicles inspired by the greatest racing Ferraris of the 1950s, built using the most advanced technology available to Ferrari at the moment of their creation. The first Icona cars were the Monza SP1 and SP2 — the SP1 a single-seat barchetta, the SP2 a two-seat companion. Both draw visual inspiration from the 166 MM and 750 Monza competition cars that won Le Mans and the Mille Miglia for Ferrari in the early 1950s, with their characteristic low sides, exposed cockpit, and flowing bodywork. The Monza SP1 does not simply reference those cars aesthetically — it deploys the same functional philosophy: minimum obstruction between driver and machine, maximum sensory exposure to the vehicle's mechanical character. The Virtual Wind Shield system, developed specifically for the Icona series, uses computational aerodynamics to deflect air over the occupant at high speed without a conventional windscreen, maintaining the open-air experience at all velocities. The Monza SP1 is not a track-only car, not a roadster in the traditional sense, not a convertible — it is a category of one.

The V12 F140 powertrain: 6,496 cc, 810 PS, and naturally aspirated excellence

The Ferrari Monza SP1 is powered by the F140 V12 in a tune producing 810 PS (596 kW) at 8,500 rpm with 719 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm — figures that represent the output of Ferrari's most powerful naturally aspirated road car engine at the time of the Monza's launch. The F140 is a long-standing Ferrari engineering achievement: a 65° V12 of 6,496 cc that has powered Ferrari's flagship Grand Tourers since 2017, with a character defined by linear power delivery across an extremely wide rev range, an exhaust note of unrivalled complexity, and a mechanical precision that no turbocharged or hybrid powertrain has replicated. In the Monza SP1's lightweight, open bodywork, the V12 operates without the acoustic insulation present in enclosed cars — the result is an immersive powertrain experience that owners consistently describe as unlike anything else in the contemporary automotive landscape. Power reaches the rear wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch DCT with F1-style paddle-shift, enabling 0–100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 300 km/h in the open-cockpit barchetta configuration.

Grigio Titanio and full options specification: what this Monza SP1 offers the buyer

Grigio Titanio positions this Ferrari Monza SP1 apart from the majority of examples traded in the secondary market, where Rosso Ferrari and lighter metallic tones predominate. The titanium grey finish reads differently in different light conditions — appearing almost silver in direct sun, deeply tonal in shade — and provides a canvas that highlights the car's sculptural surfacing without demanding attention. The specification layered onto this base is genuinely comprehensive: the Scuderia Ferrari Airbrush brings the SF shield to the headrests, reinforcing the car's competition lineage. Giallo Modena calipers provide the single most visible colour accent against the bodywork. The full carbon fibre exterior package reduces weight while adding visual texture. Inside, 4-point racing harnesses, yellow tachometer, and the complete Racing Driver set create a cockpit that prioritises driver involvement above all else. Practical specification is equally thorough: Apple CarPlay, front and rear hydraulic lift, HELE (High Emotion Low Emissions), and a front/rear camera system complete a car that is as usable as the SP1 concept permits.

Investment case: Ferrari Monza SP1 in 2026 — scarcity, demand, and price trajectory

The Ferrari Monza SP1 was sold at an original MSRP of approximately €1,600,000 through Ferrari's closed allocation process in 2018–2019. In 2026, verified off-market transactions for well-documented examples consistently exceed that figure by a significant margin. The primary drivers are structural: 499 units combined (SP1+SP2 together), permanent production retirement, and the growing institutional recognition of Ferrari Icona cars as a distinct and scarce sub-category within the collector market. The SP1, with its single-seat configuration, is rarer in practical terms than the SP2 — fewer units were produced in this variant, and the experience it offers has no substitute. This specific example's provenance — 1 owner, accident-free, lightly used, extensively specified in an uncommon colour — represents the quality of documentation that private wealth advisors and family offices require for asset-class treatment.
