One to Buy: 1 of 1 Nero Opaco 2004 Ferrari Enzo
/
Although Ferrari originally stated that only three exterior colours would be available for the limited production Enzo (Rosso Corsa, Giallo and Nero) a handful of customers were ultimately allowed to choose from the marque’s full range of shades.
A small number of examples were thus finished in comparatively unusual colours. However, one truly special VIP, arguably Ferrari’s most important customer for approaching two decades, was able to commission a genuine one-off in a livery that had never been seen before.
That client was the Brunei Royal Family for whom Ferrari and Pininfarina had previously created a host of spectacular Speciales during a period when custom coachwork was otherwise practically non-existent.
Chassis 136069 was completed on October 15th 2004, five months after Enzo production had officially come to an end. It was uniquely painted Nero Opaco and pre-dated the current trend for matte shades by many years. The rest of the specification included Nero leather with matching carpets, large racing seats and red-backed instrumentation.
The car initially spent several years at one of the royal residences in London, after which it was exported to Brunei. Today, chassis 136069 has covered just 5730km and is offered by RM Sotheby’s fresh from a €110,000 refresh at Carrozzeria Zanasi (the official paint shop for all of Ferrari’s Hypercars, Tailor-Made editions and Icona series cars).
136069, arguably the most significant Enzo of all, will be auctioned via RM Sotheby’s sealed bid process between December 5th and 7th.
