Hello Ferrari and Speed Champions fans,

The Ferrari Daytona SP3 is a limited production mid-engine sports car produced by Italian automobile manufacturer Ferrari, unveiled on 20 November 2021 for the 2023 model year. It is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 that is shared with the 812 Superfast and marks the first return of Ferrari to naturally aspirated engines for limited edition cars without hybrid electric systems, since the Ferrari Enzo built in 2002. The design references to 1960s race cars, it is a modernization of the 330 P4, with the body work consisting distinguished low driver’s seating position, raised front and rear wheel arches, and the Targa top design.

It is a studless build in the new, 8 studs wide Speed Champions style. I wanted to create a sleek model which is as accurate as possible in this small scale. I prefer the brick built solutions to keep the flexibility of the used parts in further builds, and therefore only Ferrari logo and simple light gray head lights stickers are used. The model is shown without any stickers on 7th picture (it is visible when you are logged in).

My intent was to keep the width-length-height ratio of the real car and this size makes it possible. The model contains lots of details: for example the emblematic front and hood  grilles, the side and rear intakes, the side view mirrors etc… Maybe the most challenging one was the brick built narrow black and red lines on the front. I tried to fill every unnecessary gaps and therefore some tricky build techniques are used.

There are some hidden parts which are not or not so visible (for example: they are visible only in side view between the wheel and mudguard). They can be replaced by any colors, however for the best result I suggest to use black or red in the most cases, or simply follow the inventory.

On the pictures the red grills on the front are connected only by half studs. However, if you prefer more sturdy models, then full connection is usable too, it is a bit less accurate, but looks decent too.

It is a very low build, an can roll well only on flat surfaces.

The model has space for two minifigures. I suggest to use helmets, or small hairs, and the upper part of the seats have to be removed in this case as it is shown in the instructions. The instructions and parts list files do not contain the minifigures shown on the pictures.

I hope you enjoy the build and the car. Many thanks for your support!
