HISTORY
The Ferrari 488 GT Modificata is a remarkable track-only vehicle that embodies Ferrari’s decades-long expertise in motorsport engineering and innovation. Building on the success of the Ferrari 488 GT3 and 488 GTE, this limited-production car bridges the gap between endurance racing technology and private track-day performance.
At its core lies an enhanced version of Ferrari’s award-winning 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, producing over 700 horsepower. This iteration surpasses the performance limits imposed on the GT3 and GTE models by racing regulations, offering a purer expression of the car’s capabilities. The engine is paired with a reinforced transmission, engineered to handle the increased power and sustained high-performance demands of circuit driving.
The aerodynamic design of the 488 GT Modificata is a direct evolution of Ferrari’s racing experience. Drawing from the 488 GTE, the car features extensive carbon fiber construction, a large rear diffuser, and an adjustable rear wing. Together, these elements generate increased downforce for exceptional stability and control at high speeds, allowing the car to maintain precise handling during aggressive cornering.
The suspension system, derived from the 488 GTE, is specifically tuned to offer unparalleled responsiveness and performance on the track. Stopping power comes from a state-of-the-art Brembo carbon-ceramic braking system, inspired by Ferrari’s Formula 1 technology. These brakes provide consistent and reliable performance under the intense demands of track driving.
Inside, the 488 GT Modificata stays true to its racing roots. The interior is stripped of unnecessary luxuries, focusing instead on functionality and driver engagement. It includes FIA-approved racing seats, a roll cage, and a digital interface that displays real-time telemetry, ensuring the driver has access to critical performance data during every lap.
Historically, the Modificata continues Ferrari’s tradition of creating exclusive, track-focused cars for its most passionate clients. The term “Modificata” itself pays homage to Ferrari’s history, often used to describe models that have been significantly modified for enhanced performance. Limited in production, the 488 GT Modificata is a testament to Ferrari’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of automotive engineering, offering owners a car that not only reflects the brand’s racing heritage but also allows them to experience it firsthand on the track.
OUR 488 GT Modificata
Our example is a one-owner, German car, which was painstakingly maintained by AF-Corse before and after every race. It totals around 5,000km today and is accompanied by three sets of wheels and tires. Currently fully maintained and race-ready, our example will benefit from a service at AF-Corse prior to delivery.
This represents a unique opportunity to acquire one of the very limited run of track-only 488 GT Modificata, which are eligible to enter Ferrari’s third most prestigious race series, the Club Competizioni GT. It is important to note that these cars are much more robust and require a lot less maintenance than their equivalent sisters of the XX-program, which require an engine rebuild every 5,000km (for a 488 GT Modificata, an engine rebuild is recommended at around 20,000km).
The 488 is located at our Munich showroom and can be inspected on appointment.
