In recent years, Ferrari has introduced many new colours; both highly limited through Tailor Made as well as colours used in the regular palette. This  article lists 12 of them and as you will find out, some of the unknown colours have been around for many years.

As our Ferrari Colours page concludes, there’s still a lot of paint colours to discover.

Argento Auteuil

Argento Auteil is a beautiful, light shade of silver that was first seen in the 1960s.

Azzurro Cielo

Azzurro Cielo translates to ‘blue sky’ and even though it’s slightly brighter than the blue skies we’re used to, it’s a stunning colour. Lamborghini’s version of Azzurro Cielo is not as bright and is comparable with Ferrari's Azzurro California.

Bianco Mille Miglia

Blu Elder

A beautiful pearlescent shade of blue that has been seen only on a handful of Ferrari cars. Blu Elder has hints of purple and gold under direct light.

Blu Mediterraneo

Certainly a personal favourite: Blu Mediterraneo and indeed very fitting for open-top driving in the Ferrari California T. Originally a Maserati colour and without a doubt named after the beautiful beaches alongside the Mediterranean Sea.

Giallo Kuramochi

The brightest colour in this article without a doubt is Giallo Kuramochi; a matte hue of yellow only seen on a handful of Ferrari cars. In person it’s even more striking than pictures and you definitely need to wear sunglasses near any cars featuring this exterior finish.

Grigio Fumo

Another stunning shade of silver is Grigio Fumo. Though slightly darker than Argento Auteil, it still showcases the curves of a 1960s Ferrari beautifully.

Oyster Metallic/Glattbrugg Carouge Rolls Royce RRBB is a Tailor Made colour that has only been seen on this Ferrari FF delivered to Ferrari Basel. It’s an amazing shade of green and depending on the angle and light showcases different types of green (from army green to goldish-green).

Rosso Marco Polo is a unique shade in the sense that it was solely created to celebrate 20 years of Ferrari in China. Marco Polo was an Italian 13th/14th century explorer who wrote in great lengths about his travels through parts of then-undiscovered Asia.

Rosso Oslo Opaco

Just like Rosso Marco Polo, Rosso Storico was specially created for a special edition Ferrari. In this case: the 2011 Ferrari 599 GTB ‘Alonso Edition’. Sporting a livery inspired by the Ferrari 150° Italia Single Seater in which Fernando Alonso won the 2011 British Grand Prix.

Veloqx Indigo
