Unmistakable Ferrari style lexicon creates a brand-new Montblanc writing experience with the Montblanc Ferrari Stilema SP3 Limited Edition 599

The Speed Of Thought

STATISTICAL ODDS are probably not in your favour if you're looking to own a Ferrari Daytona SP3, Maranello's first naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 in a limited production model since 2002's Ferrari Enzo. However, the new Montblanc Ferrari Stilema SP3 Limited Edition co-created with Ferrari Design, paying homage to the marque's latest model in the Icona range, marks the latest chapter between writing instrument pioneer and automotive legend.

With low-set, wraparound windscreens and "double-crested" front wings giving a hat tip to sports prototypes like the 512 S, 712 Can-Am and 312 P, the design of the SP3 references to 1960s race cars with a signature aerodynamically optimised design blending elements of Ferrari's historic styling with cues from current models.

Co-designed under the direction of Flavio Manzoni, Ferrari's Chief Design Officer, the Montblanc Ferrari Stilema SP3 Limited Edition 599 leans into the unmistakable Ferrari style lexicon to create a brand-new shape of Montblanc writing instrument.
