JAKARTA - Pebble Beach Auctions 2023 will take place on August 18 and 19 at Pebble Beach, California, USA. Since the 1950s, Pebble Beach has been known as the ultimate destination for world-leading car collectors, buyers and sellers.

One of the world's most valuable used cars, Ferrari 599 SA Aperta will be auctioned here. The first SA Aperta output in 2011 was built according to North American specifications. This car was once driven on the famous Fiorano circuit, with black paint that covers black and red interiors.

Ferrari has managed to maintain a natural V12 engine life in SA Aperta which has an open roof - only 80 units are produced and made in honor of designers Sergio Pininfarina and Andrea Pininfarina.

The V12 6.0 liter machine in SA Aperta produces 661 dk of power and 619 Nmt of torque, this V12 version of the engine with high performance is also used at 599 GTOs. The acceleration is from 0- 96 km/hour only for 3.6 seconds and a maximum speed of more than 322 km/hour.

Quoted from Carbuzz, July 12, the auctioned SA Aperta is still stunning even though it is more than a decade old. The roof that can be removed quickly, although manually, allows motorists to feel the stunning V12 roar during acceleration.

This SA Aperta has red decorations on the dashboard, steering wheel, chairs, and door panels, as well as a striking yellow background on the central tachyon reading up to 10,000 rpm. The interior of the cabin is also coated with carbon fibers.

Not much information is known about the 599 SA Aperta, but the auction house states that a complete description of the sale will be available ahead of the auction.

Ferrari 599 SA Aperta emerged in the late 2000s. This is a decade that also gave birth to Ferrari Enzo, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, and Porsche Carrera GT powered by V10 engines.

Next month, one lucky person will have the opportunity to own a car from this epic era, and it won't be surprising that 599 SA Aperta has a high price estimated above $1 million.
