Lighter , competition-oriented 212: 2,562.51-cc V12, 165 hp, five-speed, 850 kg, 2,250-mm wheelbase and 220 km/h. It won the Targa Florio in Marzotto hands, and SBR records 27 cars plus a 2015 Touring Barchetta auction at about £5.9 million. A broad $4–8+ million range is therefore appropriate for authentic cars.
