Mansory Equestre: A Bold Ferrari 12Cilindri
The Mansory Equestre transforms Ferrari’s 12Cilindri into an even more dramatic expression of power and style. Every major body panel has been reimagined in forged carbon fiber, from the front apron and hood to the wheel arches and rear diffuser. Aggressive intakes and sharp flaps improve aerodynamics while giving the car a more muscular stance. A tricolore stripe runs along the centerline, celebrating the car’s Italian heritage. At the rear, Mansory avoids oversized wings, instead opting for a sculpted carbon apron that preserves the grand tourer’s elegance while boosting downforce. The car rides on new VF.5 forged wheels, 21 inches up front and 22 in the rear, paired with high-performance tires that enhance grip and stability.
Performance Enhancements
Beneath the sculpted carbon exterior lies Ferrari’s legendary V12 engine, now tuned by Mansory to deliver 855 horsepower and 730 Nm of torque. The improvements come from refined engine software and a new sport exhaust system featuring four carbon-finished tailpipes. This system not only increases performance but also enhances the auditory experience with a deeper, more aggressive note. Despite its radical exterior, the Equestre remains true to its touring roots, balancing speed and long-distance capability.
Interior Customization
Inside, the Mansory Equestre is a study in personalized luxury. Clients can choose from endless combinations of leather, Alcantara, carbon fiber, and custom stitching. The showcase model features a striking mix of grey Alcantara with purple accents, an illuminated Mansory logo, and LED lighting integrated into the headliner. A bespoke carbon and leather steering wheel with shift indicator completes the cockpit, underscoring the focus on individuality and exclusivity.
Market Impact
The Equestre was introduced at the Monaco Yacht Show as a full conversion available in both Coupé and Spider forms. While the Ferrari 12Cilindri pays tribute to traditional grand touring heritage, Mansory has delivered a provocative alternative that polarizes opinion. Admirers praise its boldness and craftsmanship, while purists argue that the modifications stray too far from Ferrari’s original vision. Pricing has not been disclosed, but considering the complexity of the conversion and the cost of the base car, the Equestre is certain to command a substantial premium.
The Mansory Equestre ultimately serves as both tribute and rebellion—a daring reinterpretation of Ferrari’s V12 legacy, aimed squarely at those who want something truly one of a kind.
