We got spy shots of the upcoming Ferrari 812 “Versione Speciale” on public roads with its final production bodywork as it is about to be officially unveiled in late 2021 or early 2022!

Ferrari will grow the Prancing Horse family with an 812 Superfast-based model - The Versione Speciale - which is believed to be the name used internally though details are scarce despite its confirmation earlier in February of this year, right on Enzo Ferrari’s birthday, by chief marketing officer at Ferrari, Enrico Galliera. “It’s a new model that really represents a breakthrough,” said Galliera. “The car is really stunning, and a short video showing the car wouldn’t be enough to tell you what does it mean. So, you have to wait a little bit for the official reveal,” he stated.

Under the full protective covers, the mysterious prototype sports a new front fascia with larger intakes, as well as new rear fascia with a large diffuser and vents around the exhaust tips. Expect this hardcore variant to boast the 812’s naturally aspirated V12 engine with extra power and to be the last Naturally Aspirated V12 Ferrari.

There are no details available beyond what’s in the pictures. It isn't clear what the hardcore 812 Superfast will be called but a revival of Ferrari's GTO badge is still a possibility.
