It is a tribute to the Prancing Horses of the 1950s and 1960s, and it eschews the rear seats from the donor car.
Another unique car that was ordered by a wealthy buyer is the Ferrari BR20. It borrows the underpinnings of the now-canceled GTC4Lusso, but eschews the shooting brake body style to favor a fastback silhouette. Maranello was asked by the client to incorporate styling cues from Prancing Horses, particularly the 1950s and 60s era coupes.
One-off BR20 follows twelve-cylinder cars like the 410 SA or 500 Superfast. It has a sensational fastback silhouette and is three inches (76 millimeters!) longer than the donor car. The stretch at the back is where the rear overhang was modified to create the Ferrari’s unique shape. It also features a steep roofline.
The changes are not limited to the roofline and derriere. Ferrari also made some modifications at the front, where the BR20 receives a custom set of headlights. They are mounted lower to make it seem more powerful. The car also rides on 20-inch wheels with a unique diamond finish that you won’t find anywhere else on Ferrari.
The interior is equally special, featuring two shades browns and plenty of carbon fiber. This creates a sporty yet cozy atmosphere. The leather seats are covered with Heritage Testa di Moro dark brown leather and feature silver cross-stitching. The GTC4Lusso’s back seats have been replaced by an elegant oak luggage deck that hides the cargo area.
Although Ferrari is not revealing the exact specifications of the BR20, the GTC4Lusso T was used as the basis. This means that the BR20 has a naturally-aspirated V12 and all-wheel drive setup, rather than the turbo-V8 and RWD configurations of the earlier model. The 6.2-liter model replaced the Ferrari Four (FF). It produced 680 horsepower (507 kilowatts), and 514 pound feet (697 Newton-meters of torque), which allowed it to go from 0-60 mph (100 km/h), in 3.4 seconds, and reach a top speed at 208 mph (335km/h).
Ferrari has not disclosed the BR20’s cost, as is the norm with one-offs. However, it is safe to assume it was much more expensive than the standard GTC4Lusso which cost around $300,000 before being retired. This is not the second Icona, as it is rumored that this one is based on the LaFerrari.
