Ferrari 575M

The Ferrari 575M Maranello arrived in 2002 as an evolution of the celebrated 550 Maranello. The 'M' stands for 'Modificata,' signifying key updates including a larger 5.75-liter V12 engine with 508 hp, revised styling, and larger brakes. It's also historically significant as the first front-engine V12 Ferrari offered with the magneti-marelli F1 automated manual transmission, which was fitted to the majority of cars produced.

Collectors prize the 575M for its classic grand touring formula combined with improved performance and reliability over its predecessor. The car's collectibility is almost entirely defined by its transmission. While the F1 gearbox was popular when new, today the rare 6-speed gated manual cars are the most coveted. A manual 575M is considered a blue-chip collectible and commands a substantial price premium, often more than double its F1-equipped counterpart.

The market for the 575M is mature and highly segmented. The average price of $158,304 reflects a mix of F1 cars and the more expensive manuals. Standard F1 cars represent the most accessible entry into modern V12 Ferrari ownership. Meanwhile, pristine, low-mileage manual coupes and the ultra-rare Superamerica convertible models consistently trade for top dollar, showing continued strength among discerning collectors.

Prices range from $60,500 for driver-quality examples to $550,000 for concours-level manual cars.
