There are cars that history turns into icons. Others are born as such. The LaFerrari Aperta falls into the second category. Maranello created the car to celebrate its 70th anniversary. This is why it is a model like no other. The LaFerrari Aperta is the ultimate technological expression of an open roof car. It is an essential roadster, a two-seater of the sort that immediately colonises the collective imagination. The LaFerrari Aperta has important roots. It is in fact an offshoot of the LaFerrari, the special limited series Prancing Horse car that redefined the limits of automotive technology.
