Rare Grigio Ferro LaFerrari With Fresh Factory Battery Heads to Zoute Concours SaleA one-owner 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari wearing one of the rarest paint colors ever applied to Maranello's first hybrid hypercar is headed to the auction block this fall. Broad Arrow Auctions has consigned the car for its Zoute Concours sale in Knokke-Heist, Belgium, carrying a pre-sale estimate of €4,000,000 to €5,000,000.Chassis 208220 was delivered new in February 2015 through Ferrari dealer Monza in Sint-Martens-Latem, making it one of just five LaFerraris believed to have gone to Belgian customers when new. It stayed with a single owner for its entire life until that owner's passing, after which the car remained in Belgium and continued to receive maintenance from authorized Ferrari dealers. At the time of cataloging it showed only 13,069 kilometers, backed by a service history stretching from 2016 through this past August.Underneath the Grigio Ferro Metallizzato paint sits the hardware that made the LaFerrari a watershed moment for Ferrari: a 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V12 derived from the automaker's FXX development program, paired with a Formula 1-inspired HY-KERS electric motor. Combined output lands at 963 metric horsepower, sent to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle. Ferrari built just 499 examples between 2013 and 2016, making the LaFerrari the direct successor to the Enzo and the latest link in a flagship chain that runs back through the F40 and F50.AdvertisementAdvertisementGrigio Ferro is estimated to have been chosen by only a small fraction of LaFerrari buyers, and this particular car pairs the color with an Atelier-commissioned carbon fiber exterior package, matte-finished wheels, and a Nero leather interior with four-point racing harnesses.The most consequential item in the car's file, though, has nothing to do with color or options. A routine inspection this past July turned up a temperature anomaly in one cell of the LaFerrari's high-voltage battery pack. Rather than passing the issue on to a future owner, Ferrari authorized a full battery replacement under the LaFerrari Power Warranty extension, completed in August. Battery work of that scope can run into six figures once a car ages out of coverage, and it resolves the single biggest concern facing early hybrid hypercars as they close in on their second decade of use.Documented, warranty-covered work like that carries real weight in a market that has treated the LaFerrari as a blue-chip asset almost since production ended. Hagerty's valuation tools, which track pricing across the model's full production run, show it has held value far better than most hypercars twice its age, a trend echoed by recent public sales like Sammy Hagar's LaFerrari, which brought $4.675 million at Barrett-Jackson. Broad Arrow's own track record backs up the momentum, too, with the auction house reporting €26.3 million in sales at its inaugural Zoute Concours auction.With full service history, a factory-fresh battery, and one of the rarest color combinations ever ordered on a LaFerrari, chassis 208220 offers about as close to a turnkey buying experience as this generation of Ferrari hypercar gets. Bidders will find out what that combination is worth when Broad Arrow's Zoute Concours sale gets underway later this year.⚡️ Read the full article on MotoriousSign up for the Motorious Newsletter.
