The Ferrari Daytona SP3 is already one of Ferrari’s most exclusive models, a limited-run tribute to 1960s racing prototypes powered by a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 producing 829 horsepower in factory form. NOVITEC, the German specialist known for fine-tuning Maranello’s finest, just unveiled their package for this rare Icona-series car, which includes subtle but significant changes that improve performance while maintaining the original design language.
The NOVITEC engineers focused on the exhaust system, essentially finding a way to get more power out of the V12. Their high-performance arrangement, which includes metal catalysts and thermal insulation to keep the engine compartment cool, reduces back pressure and improves gas flow. The result is a 28 horsepower increase, bringing the overall output to an impressive 868 horsepower (638 kW). You can feel the improved throttle response and liveliness across the rpm range; it’s almost as if the car has sprung to life. You may also change the exhaust sound from smooth and muted to a full-fledged V12 cry, much like in the days of classic racing engines. For those who desire a little extra luxury, the exhaust can even be finished in 999 fine gold plating, which is quite the treat.

NOVITEC kept the original tailpipes and didn’t change the car’s appearance, retaining the magnificent wedge shape and one-piece cockpit. They did, however, make a few visual changes, with the wheels in particular receiving a significant improvement. NOVITEc has collaborated with Vossen to create a collection of bespoke forged alloys available in three different patterns and a variety of finishes. The staggered setup uses 9.5Jx20-inch fronts fitted with 265/30 ZR20 tires and 12.5Jx21-inch rears with 345/30 ZR21 tires. They’re lightweight, sturdy, and look great, which is exactly what you need in a car capable of handling the Daytona SP3.
If you want to go even more custom, NOVITEC’s craftsmen will collaborate with you to design a completely personalized interior, utilizing premium leather and Alcantara to create a genuinely unique place. Every stitch, panel, and detail is personalized in their German factory.
As expected, the performance stats haven’t changed much: 2.85 seconds from 0 to 62 mph and a top speed of more than 211 mph. NOVITEC has simply fine-tuned the automobile to get more out of it, adding refinement and presence. You can see they kept the Daytona SP3’s legacy in mind, since this is a car that still looks and feels like a 1960s car, but with a little more power.
