Black might seem like a basic car colour, but not when it comes to Ferrari. Each shade of Ferrari black carries its own legacy, finish, and story.

Black is a great choice if you're going for a sleek and sophisticated configuration. Which shade is your favourite?

Nero Stellato is an exclusive metallic shade of Ferrari black, enhanced with subtle golden flakes that add depth and shimmer. Introduced in the early 2000s, it has remained a rare and refined choice ever since. The name Stellato translates to "starry sky" in Italian.

Nero Stellato Opaco

Nero Stellato Opaco is the matte counterpart to the original Nero Stellato paint. Without the metallic sparkle, it takes on the appearance of a deep, rich grey rather than a true black, offering a more subdued and stealthy aesthetic.

Nuovo Nero 75
