The Ferrari Daytona SP3 sits at a specific crossroads in the marque's history: the last word in naturally aspirated V12 road cars before the hybrid era fully takes hold. Unveiled in November 2021 as the third entry in the Icona series, it came finished in period-correct design language drawn directly from Ferrari's 1967 endurance racers. BBR Models' 1:43 resin replica captures that singular car in an equally singular colour — Verde British, a Tailor Made shade not found in the standard catalogue.
A 6.5-Litre V12 with a Race Pedigree
The Daytona SP3 is powered by the 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 also found in the 812 Competizione, producing approximately 840 hp at 9,500 rpm — the highest output of any naturally aspirated Ferrari road car at the time of its launch. The bodywork is styled in Targa configuration, featuring a removable hard roof panel that allows open-top driving. The proportions are compact for the power on offer, with wide haunches and a low, raked nose referencing the P-series prototypes of the 1960s.
The 1967 Daytona Victory and the Verde British Livery
The SP3's name directly references the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, where Ferrari's 330 P3/4, 330 P4 and 412 P took a celebrated 1-2-3 finish — one of the most photographed moments in endurance racing history. This particular example is finished in Verde British, a British Racing Green shade available exclusively through Ferrari's Tailor Made personalisation programme. The combination of a car commemorating a period racing triumph with a colour evoking the great British motorsport tradition gives this variant a layered historical resonance that goes beyond standard palette choices.
BBR Models: Bologna's Benchmark in 1:43 Resin
BBR Models is among the most respected names in 1:43 Ferrari replicas, producing small-series resin pieces noted for paint-colour fidelity that matches Ferrari's own Tailor Made specifications. The Daytona SP3 is rendered here in resin — a material that allows sharper surface definition than diecast at this scale — with the car depicted in open-roof configuration. The Verde British finish replicates the bespoke Tailor Made shade, a colour unlikely to appear across many releases in this subject, making this variant a distinct item within the BBR Daytona SP3 range.
In the Display Cabinet
At 1:43, the Daytona SP3 occupies a compact footprint well suited to collector shelving alongside other Icona series pieces such as the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2, or V12 road car milestones including the Ferrari Enzo. The Verde British livery reads distinctly against both the more common Rosso Corsa and yellow examples in the BBR Daytona SP3 sub-range. For collectors building a chronological Ferrari V12 road car sequence, this model represents the apex of the naturally aspirated chapter — a logical anchor piece before the hybrid-assisted successors.
Häufig gestellte Fragen
Does the model have opening parts?
No. As a resin model, the body is a sealed one-piece construction with no opening doors, bonnet or engine cover. Detail is concentrated on the exterior surfaces: the bodywork contours, aerodynamic forms and the Verde British paint finish.
What is the real car's engine?
The Daytona SP3 uses a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12, longitudinally mid-mounted, producing approximately 840 hp at 9,500 rpm — the same unit found in the Ferrari 812 Competizione and the most powerful naturally aspirated Ferrari road car at its launch.
How many Ferrari Daytona SP3s were built?
All examples were sold before the car's public unveiling in November 2021, making any accurate scale replica the only accessible form of the model for most enthusiasts.
