We weren’t really sure of what to expect from a Middle-East Edition of a European car. Would there be any engineering differences made to adapt the car to the hot and arid conditions or would it just be bling and gaudy to satisfy the market?
DMC’s Middle East special edition of SPIA kit for the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta offers a lot ofvisual changes that includes an extra wide carbon fibre body kit and the addition of a splitter at the front. A roof scoop and a rear diffuser add “muscle” to the Italian super car and there’s a rear wing that reminds us of the 599XX. The central black strip is actually a nice touch because it breaks up the golden paintwork that would otherwise be overkill. Buyers can choose to have their Ferrari F12 Berlinetta SPIA Middle East in the Virgin Gold seen in these images or in any other finish. The 21-inc front and 22-inch rear alloys with Pirelli rubber complete the exterior styling changes.
The German tuning house has installed a new exhaust system and the ECU has been remapped to increase the 6.2 litre V-12’s output from 740bhp to 766bhp. This leads to a top speed of 220mph, which is 11mph more than the standard model.
