The car
About this car in Nice
During the Cannes festival the Croisette is closed to almost everything and lined with cars chosen to be photographed, which is precisely the environment in which a red Ferrari disappears and a blue one does not. Blu Race is Ferrari's historic racing blue and it is the reason this particular 296 is requested by name.
It is also the current technical peak: a 3.0 twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor for 830 hp combined, 2.9 seconds to 100 km/h, and the ability to move off in silence — useful leaving a hotel forecourt at two in the morning.
We arrange the handover for the moment you need the car.
