This is the 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello Rosso Corsa/ Black Interior in 1:18 scale by BBR.

The 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello was Ferrari’s refined evolution of the 550 Maranello, combining classic front-engine V12 performance with luxurious long-distance touring capability. Powered by a 5.75-liter naturally aspirated V12 producing 508 horsepower, the 575M delivered effortless high-speed performance while maintaining the smooth character expected from a grand touring Ferrari. What set it apart from many rivals was its balance of exotic performance and everyday usability, along with the availability of Ferrari’s F1-style paddle-shift transmission — a cutting-edge feature for the time. With elegant Pininfarina styling, a traditional rear-wheel-drive layout, and a thunderous V12 soundtrack, the 575M represented one of the last truly analog Ferrari GT cars before the rise of modern electronic driving systems.

The Ferrari 575M Maranello, launched in 2002, represents a significant evolution of the 550 Maranello. The "M" stands for "Modificata", indicating a series of substantial updates compared to the previous model.
The design of the 575M Maranello is the work of Pininfarina, maintaining the elegance and muscularity of the 550 Maranello, but with aesthetic and functional changes such as the redesigned front air intakes to improve brake and engine cooling, giving a more aggressive look.
A major innovation was the introduction of the F1 (electro-hydraulic) gearbox, derived from the technologies of Formula 1 single-seaters.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. BBR models are
known for their accuracy of scale, shape and detail throughout the industry. Each model is created using
a variety of production processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite
material referred to in the industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and
waterslide decals are often used for the most authentic replication.
BBR models are usually produced in very small production quantities that often sell out at "pre-order"
