Upon its debut, the 812 GTS was more than just an open-topped variant of the already compelling 812 Superfast: It was also the first front-engined series-production V-12-powered convertible offered by Ferrari since the discontinuation of the 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider. It borrowed many of the 812 Superfast’s best features, including the potent V-12 with its 789 horsepower and 530 pound-feet of torque, while adopting new touches such as a transmission with shorter gear ratios that ensured acceleration remained equal to the coupe. Styling was massaged throughout to ensure maximum aerodynamic efficiency even without a roof which, when lowered, folds and disappears under a tonneau within the rear deck. Acceleration from zero to 60 mph takes an estimated 2.8 seconds, on the way to a top speed of 211 mph.

For those seeking something even more special, Ferrari’s Tailor Made program provides their clientele an exclusive opportunity to execute their perfect vision with the help of a team led by a Personal Designer at one of the three centers located in Maranello, Shanghai, or New York City. A tactile experience, buyers are presented with a wide variety of samples, and a range of configurations are assembled based on the interpreted desires of each client.

The 2022 Ferrari 812 GTS on offer is a wonderous display of the Tailor Made program’s capabilities. A bold statement, the car is finished in Blu Stephanie, offset by a wide Bianco King central stripe flanked by thinner stripes in the same color. The one-off specification also features extensive use of carbon fiber, including for the front bumper valance, rear bumper sides, front spoiler, rear diffuser, the underside of the doors, inner door handles, driver zone and bridge, kick panels, door panels, dashboard inserts, and console. Alloy silver forged racing wheels, glossy black brake calipers, and airbrushed Scuderia Ferrari fender shields further dress the exterior.

Bringing cohesion to the presentation, the interior mirrors the exterior treatment with Blu Superelettrico Alcantara covering the carbon fiber racing seats with complementary dashes of blue found on the door handles, gauge cluster surround, shift paddles, and dashboard strips. Bianco Cavallino logos embroidered on each headrest, along with a white rev counter, further enhance the cabin. Carbon fiber kick plates on the door sills feature the Tailor Made logo and the Italian tricolor stripe. A spectacularly luxurious element, the leather treatments found throughout the cabin are composed of hides sourced through the high-end Italian furniture manufacturer Poltrona Frau.

Other notable equipment includes front and rear cameras, passenger display, and titanium exhaust pipes. As indicated by an invoice on file, Ferrari Beverly Hills performed a second annual service which included a filter change, brake flush, and systems check in August 2024.

This one-of-one 12-cylinder Ferrari has been driven just 1,961 miles as of cataloguing time and remains in outstanding condition throughout. It is ideal for the connoisseur who favors a highly bespoke, singular specification in the most exclusive Tailor Made colors and trim—an 812 GTS as striking to behold as it is to drive.
