At the 2015 Geneva motor show, Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera srl (or Touring Superleggera in short) recognized worldwide as one of the iconic names in Italian car design and coachbuilding, premiered its latest creation - the Berlinetta Lusso.
The Touring Berlinetta Lusso shares Ferrari's F12berlinetta rolling chassis, with its mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment and powertrain left untouched.
This street legal 2-seater coupe will be one of only five units produced.
The Berlinetta Lusso is the proud continuation of a heritage first established in 1950 with the series-produced car from Maranello: the iconic Ferrari 166 MM Touring.
Today, the tailor-made, lavish Grand Tourer in the purest spirit of its roots of Italian carrozzeria, features a three-box architecture with apparent separation of volumes.
Its eye-catching exterior paint is Azzurro Niourlague, which brings to mind the Mediterranean sea on a sunny and windy day.
The interior features a slightly darker blue just split by a cream-coloured band all around the cockpit and sumptuous seats with their refined blue stitching.
This first edition of the Berlinetta Lusso, which made its Asian debut in Singapore on 15 April, is priced at S$1.8 million duty-free, excluding tax.
Exclusively distributed by EuroSports Auto, the Touring Berlinetta Lusso will be available to collectors in Singapore at a price on application.
The approximate delivery lead time is expected to be 10 months.
