Ferrari 275 P Spider Street Version 1964 Red Top Marques 1:18

Ferrari's 275P was one of the most successful factory prototypes of its era. Introduced in 1964, it carried the Colombo-derived V12 — the same engine architecture underpinning the contemporary 275 GTB and 275 GTS road cars — into the most demanding long-distance races on the calendar. This 1:18 scale model by Top Marques Collectibles presents that machine in an open spider street interpretation, finished in the unmistakable Rosso Corsa of 1960s Maranello.

Ferrari 275P: A V12 Built to Win

Developed from the 250 P platform, the 275P debuted in 1964 with a Colombo-derived V12. Ferrari campaigned the car at the highest level of international prototype competition. Its outright victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Nürburgring 1000 km in the same season confirmed the 275P as the dominant factory prototype of 1964, continuing the lineage of championship-winning V12 machinery from Maranello.

An Open-Top Reading of a Racing Icon

The 275P was conceived as a closed-cockpit racing prototype; the open spider body presented here is a bespoke street interpretation that evokes the road-race crossover culture of 1960s Ferrari. The 275 name was shared that year with the 275 GTS — a Pininfarina-bodied open road car using the same V12 architecture. Presented in Rosso Corsa without race numbers or livery markings, this street spider configuration invites a different conversation about the 275 family and its V12 bloodline.

Top Marques Collectibles: Premium 1:18 Scale Construction

Top Marques Collectibles produces 1:18 scale models noted for fine surface detail and a limited-production approach that sets them apart from mainstream releases. Careful construction allows the manufacturer to render subtle bodywork contours and period-correct detailing with a precision that suits a subject as sculpted as the 275P. The finish in Rosso Corsa — a colour that demands an even, deep surface to read correctly under display lighting — is presented to a high standard.

In the Display Cabinet

A 1:18 model of this format stands out on the shelf and benefits from a cabinet that allows viewing from multiple angles — the open cockpit and the V12 silhouette reward close inspection from the side. Natural companions include the Ferrari 250 P of 1963, the Ferrari 250 LM of 1964 and the Ferrari 275 GTS — all sharing the Colombo V12 family and the Rosso Corsa palette of the same period. Together they document one of the most coherent engine and design lineages in Ferrari history.
