Ferrari Daytona SP3: Blue Bodywork, Prototype Memories

DAYTONA TO MUGELLO / A MODERN PROTOTYPE MEMORY

The past is present in the shape, but this Bburago Signature model makes its own impression in blue, gold and red.

Why Daytona?

On February 6, 1967, Ferrari took the first three places at the 24 Hours of Daytona with a 330 P3/4, a 330 P4 and a 412 P. Ferrari named the Daytona SP3 in reference to that result and the broader world of its 1960s sports prototypes.

The modern car was revealed at Mugello in November 2021. It places a naturally aspirated V12 behind the cockpit and uses a targa layout. Its historical references are carried through proportion and surface treatment, rather than a period racing number or sponsor scheme. That distinction gives a blue miniature as much reason to exist as a traditional red one. Ferrari: Daytona SP3 launch, 2021.

A color combination worth keeping

This is the blue Bburago Signature example from JPC's library, with pale gold-colored wheels and a red interior. Those details belong in the story. They change how the car reads and help distinguish this miniature from another SP3 release.

The side view shows a continuous curve around the cabin. At the rear, a stack of horizontal slats replaces the simpler tail treatment of many modern Ferraris. The close front view then takes the eye back to the layered nose and the dark openings beneath it.

From exterior to cockpit

A raised door gives the red cabin a full frame instead of leaving it as a glimpse through glass. The final rear view shows the bodywork open, while the earlier photographs preserve the complete closed silhouette.

The gallery follows the miniature as photographed, with its roof fitted in the exterior views. It does not treat the model as a replica of one of the actual 1967 finishing cars. For that history, the reference is the original race result; for this page, the subject is Ferrari's later interpretation of that memory.
