The Novitec N-Largo S is a widebody goodbye to the Ferrari 812 Superfast

German tuner commemorates the big V12 Ferrari with more power and much carbon

Published: 26 Sep 2023

Novitec is now rather well known for its N-Largo widebody versions of the world’s supercars, but its latest update for the Ferrari 812 Superfast takes things up a notch.

Called the N-Largo S, we’re told that just three of these cars will be built to say goodbye to the wonderful 812. Oh, and all three have already been sold.

All of the additional bits (which are rather tricky to see when teamed with this rather shady colour scheme) are made from carbon fibre, and in total the N-Largo S is 14cm wider than the standard 812. That means it’s over 2.1m wide at the rear axle thanks to a giant wraparound spoiler that blends into wider rear arches. Yikes.

Said spoiler is a reasonably discreet ducktail item though, and we’re far from offended by the rest of Novitec’s aero enhancements. It’s 7cm wider than standard up at the front axle and there are shades of 599 GTO or 599XX to the front view. Those wheels are huge forged items from American firm Vossen too and measure 21-inches up front and 22 at the rear.

New sports springs drop the 812 by 35mm and there’s an optional front lift system to clear speed bumps and navigate multi-storey car parks.

Let’s forget parking for a second though, because Novitec has also worked on the 6.5-litre V12 to extract 829bhp and 554lb ft of torque. A modified ECU and Inconel exhaust (which saves 11kg over the standard car) work together to increase top speed to 214mph and drop the 0-62mph time to a frankly ridiculous 2.8 seconds.
