Forget lifting a normal boot lid. This Ferrari-based shooting brake opens its luggage compartment through butterfly-style panels at the sides, one of several details that make it difficult to mistake for an ordinary 599.

Carscoops featured the Daytona Shooting Brake Hommage on 5 October ahead of its auction. Broad Arrow's announcement, carried by Racecar, schedules it for the Zoute Concours sale in Knokke-Heist, Belgium, on 9 October.

The estimate is €450,000 to €650,000. That is an auctioneer's expectation, not a price already paid by a buyer.

A long roof over familiar V12 foundations

Niels van Roij Design built the one-off as a tribute to the 1972 Daytona Shooting Brake commissioned through Chinetti Motors. Its starting point was a 2009 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, with the V12 largely retained beneath the long bonnet.

Carscoops describes extensive hand-formed bodywork and a dramatically different rear compartment. The donor car's doors remain, but much of the surrounding shape has been reworked rather than simply given a new bumper or a roof extension.

The fixed rear glass makes those opening side panels especially memorable. They allow access to the luggage area while preserving the unusual rear profile. Inside, the cognac-coloured interior and centrally placed instruments continue the bespoke treatment.

More than 15,000 hours went into the transformation

Broad Arrow's announcement puts the design, engineering and craftsmanship at more than 15,000 hours. It also describes hand-formed bodywork, modern fabrication methods and specially made hinges for the luggage panels.

The car was revealed in July 2026 at the Royal Automobile Club Concours, according to that announcement. This week's story is an auction preview, not the unveiling of a new Ferrari production model.

The appeal is easy to see even if the estimate is far beyond your garage budget: a familiar grand tourer's foundations turned into a highly individual long-roof design. The sale will test how much a collector is prepared to pay for that interpretation. Until the bidding finishes, the estimate remains just that.
