Ferrari SF90 XX Spider Goes Under the Hammer for the First Time

If you thought Ferrari had run out of ways to surprise us — aside from yet another extortionate price tag and yet another shade of red — brace yourself. Enter the Ferrari SF90 XX Spider: a super-hybrid that looks like someone took a Panamera, a Formula car, and the Batmobile, blended them with a shot of espresso, and dressed the result in a devilishly deep Blu Elder suit. And now, for the first time ever, it's going to auction.

The car is practically untouched — just 100 kilometres on the clock, which means it’s barely had time to stretch its carbon-fibre legs. Inside, it’s draped in jet-black Apollo Nero leather, bathed in the gleam of exposed carbon trim, and equipped with a Hi-Fi sound system clearly designed for those who want to hear Vivaldi at 300 km/h while the wind tries to remove their eyebrows.

Only 599 units exist on the planet. And this one is being offered on the Collecting Cars online platform, where someone — presumably a person who doesn’t concern themselves with petrol prices or vehicle taxes — is expected to put down at least 2 million euros for the privilege of ownership.

But this isn’t just any SF90. This is XX — and in Ferrari-speak, that means “we took something insane and made it certifiably unhinged.” The aerodynamics have been sharpened, the suspension’s kinematics re-engineered, and the software rewritten so thoroughly that the car is now arguably smarter than most of us on a Monday morning.

Power still comes from the ferocious 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, but it now churns out 797 horsepower and 804 Nm of torque — a modest but meaningful upgrade over the “standard” SF90. As for acceleration? 0–100 km/h in just 2.3 seconds. That’s not quick — that’s borderline supernatural. 0–200 km/h in 6.7 seconds, and a top speed of 320 km/h. All of this with the roof off, mind you.
