Oh no, Mansory has done its thing to the Ferrari Purosangue

And it’s called… the Pugnator

Published: 25 Sep 2024

At this point, you’ve just gotta sit back and admire what Mansory does, giving no quarter and offering no apology as it does so.

And in the Purosangue - a car some argue shouldn’t exist and others reckon its owners don’t actually want - it might have found its perfect vice.

It is called… the Pugnator. Latin for ‘the competitor or contestant’. It has carbon. Lots of carbon. Carbon on the bonnet, carbon on the air intakes, carbon on the wheelarches and vents, carbon on the spoiler. You shall not want for carbon.

Those FC.5 rims are one-piece jobs (made of… yep, got it in one), measuring 9.5x22 inches at the front and 11.5x23 inches at the rear. High-performance Bridgestones offer more, er, performance, and the same level of comfort, claims Mansory.

Power and torque climb from 715bhp and 528lb ft to 745bhp and 538lb ft. A modest increase, then… possibly the only modest thing about it. All courtesy of a modded ECU and a new four-flow sports exhaust, the latter complete with its own flap control system and two sports catalytic converters, plus one-up-one-down tailpipes.

Inside the (carbon) sports steering wheel is shod in leather and gets an integrated shift light. The seat belts, aluminium pedals and floor mats and many other items all get the Mansory logo treatment. Obviously you can override what you see here and spec the materials as you see fit.

You’re gonna add more carbon, aren’t you?
