The famous Ferrari P4/5 Competizione from James Glickenhaus got a public showing at the Villa d’Este Concorso d’Eleganza where it was definitely the raciest version on the shores of the lake. The one-off is based on a Ferrari Enzo and has been built by Pininfarina, although it uses a Ferrari 430 Scuderia basis for all the engine and technical components. Like the Aston Martin Zagato V12, the Ferrari P4/5 Competizione will compete at the Nuburgring 24 hours in June.

The Ferrari P4/5 Competizione participating at the 2011 24 hour Nurburgring race will be entrusted to drivers Luca Cappellari, Fabrizio Giovanardi, Nicola Larini and Mika Salo. The original P4/5 Competizione was built in 2006 as a one-off by Pininfarina for American collector Jim Glickenhaus and was based on the Enzo model.
The Ferrari P4/5 Competizione that will participate at the endurance Nurburgring race is based on the Ferrari 430 Scuderia but with the same bodywork as the one-off. It therefore won’t have a V12 engine but a more compact 4.0-litre V8 with about 500 hp. After its racing career is over, Glickenhaus has plans to develop a road model based on his racer so stay tuned for that. Check out all the pics and the video of the Ferrari P4/5 Competizione below.
