Mansory Carbon Fiber Body kit set for Ferrari Portofino

MANSORY Carbon Body Programme for the Ferrari Portofino / Portofino M — the folding-hardtop GT cabriolet entry line from Maranello

The Ferrari Portofino launched in 2017 as the direct successor to the California T, keeping the folding retractable-hardtop 2+2 cabriolet format and the front-engine twin-turbo V8 architecture but replacing the California's aluminium chassis with a new spaceframe that shed roughly 80 kg. The Portofino M facelift arrived in 2020 with the 8-speed DCT lifted from the SF90 programme, a revised exhaust tract and output raised from 600 to 620 hp. Production of the M variant ran through 2023 when the Roma Spider took over the front-engine V8 GT open-top slot — making the Portofino / Portofino M the last Ferrari to carry the retractable-hardtop folding-roof format before the Roma Spider's move back to a soft-top convertible. Mansory's programme is dimensioned against both the 2017-2020 Portofino and the 2020-2023 Portofino M facelift without SKU split, with a single bumper calibration that fits both pre- and post-facelift front-end geometry.

Why the Portofino sits apart from the other Ferrari GTs in the Mansory book

The Portofino is the only front-engine V8 Ferrari with a folding metal roof in the current Mansory catalogue. Every other front-engine V8 Ferrari Mansory covers — the Roma coupé and the Roma Soft Kit — is a fixed-roof coupé. Every other open-top V8 Ferrari Mansory covers is mid-engine with a soft-top or RHT aft of the cabin (F8 Spider, 296 GTS). The Portofino's folding metal-roof stack sits behind the rear parcel shelf and the boot partition, which meaningfully constrains the rear-deck spoiler geometry. Mansory's Portofino boot-lid lip spoiler was specifically redrawn (vs the California T programme inherited tooling) to clear the 14-second folding-roof articulation path and to preserve the factory roof-cycle time, factory mid-speed articulation lockout (30 km/h maximum speed with roof in transit) and factory luggage-well volume with the roof stowed (equivalent to a 292 L boot roof-up, 165 L roof-down).

Material: PU-RIM with visible carbon weave as standard; full dry-carbon conversion available across all items. Install runs five to six shop days.

F154BE V8 — donor-spec summary and available powertrain layers

The Portofino runs the F154BE evolution of the F154 twin-turbo V8 family: 3.855 litres, flat-plane crank, variable-boost management across gears, 600 hp at 7,500 rpm / 760 Nm from 3,000 rpm on the 2017-2020 Portofino, raised to 620 hp on the 2020-2023 Portofino M. The Portofino ran a 7-speed dual-clutch (carryover from the California T) in pre-facelift form; the Portofino M moved to the 8-speed DCT lifted from the SF90 programme with a revised final drive ratio. Mansory's body programme is bodywork only — no powertrain modification. Mansory F154BE stage-1 tune is available in the workshop catalogue as a separate SKU and raises output to roughly 680 hp / 820 Nm. Factory Side-Slip Control, factory E-Diff 3, factory carbon-ceramic brakes (optional from factory) and factory magnetorheological dampers (SCM-E) continue at factory function with the Mansory kit installed.

21" forged — Ferrari 5×114.3 PCD

Factory Portofino ships on 20" wheels. Mansory's forged wheel offering for the Portofino covers 20" (factory-matched) and 21" (standard Mansory visual presence uplift). Tyre spec: Pirelli P Zero or Michelin Pilot Sport 4S for year-round, Pirelli P Zero Corsa for track-adjacent use. Full forged-wheel range at Hodoor forged wheels.

Geography — open-top Mediterranean and Gulf winter-use bias

The Portofino Mansory commission book tracks open-top-use geography almost exclusively — it is rare to see a Portofino commissioned from a winter-garage market unless the owner will ship the car south for the season. Four clusters dominate:

Southern European Mediterranean corridor. Monaco, Côte d'Azur (Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez), Italian Riviera (Portofino village itself, Amalfi coast, Sardinia), Marbella, Balearics (Ibiza, Palma), Mykonos. These commissions weight heavily toward Portofino M with 21" forged, full visible-carbon Soft spec and the sport exhaust. April-to-October season bracket. The Portofino is the single most-commissioned open-top Ferrari in this corridor after the F8 Spider.

South Florida year-round cluster. USA Portofino commissions concentrate in Miami / Palm Beach / Key Biscayne with November-through-May high season. California (LA / Newport Beach / Palm Springs) runs Portofinos as year-round commissioned cars. Gulf winter season (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait) runs Portofinos November-through-March; Gulf summer closes the roof entirely and the cars move to winter garages.

Italian home market — Milan, Modena, Turin, Rome. Italian summer-weekend commissioned Portofinos typically carry the full-dry-carbon spec and the 21" forged. The Portofino carries particular local identity in the Genoa / Liguria / Portofino village corridor — the model's namesake location.

Russia / CIS route through the Tsar programme. China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan run thin but steady Portofino M orders.

Sister Mansory Ferrari builds

The Portofino programme sits alongside the Roma (the fixed-roof front-engine GT successor to the Portofino M in Ferrari's line), the Roma Soft Kit (reversible tier on the Roma), the F8 Soft Kit (mid-engine V8 coupé / spider, reversible), the 296 GTB, the SF90, the 812 Stallone GTS and the Purosangue Pugnator.

FAQ

Does the Mansory programme fit both 2017-2020 Portofino and 2020-2023 Portofino M?
Yes — the front bumper, bonnet, side skirts and rear diffuser are calibrated against both pre- and post-facelift front-end and rear-end geometry without SKU split. The Portofino M's revised headlight graphic and revised rear diffuser fins are both compensated in the Mansory tooling.

Is the folding-roof articulation preserved with the Mansory boot-lid spoiler?
Yes. The boot-lid lip spoiler was specifically redrawn from the California T inherited tooling to clear the 14-second folding-roof cycle path. Factory roof-cycle timing, factory mid-speed articulation lockout and factory luggage-well volume roof-up / roof-down are all preserved.

Does the Portofino run the same F154 V8 as the F8?
Same engine family, different state of tune. The Portofino runs the F154BE variant (3.855 L, 600-620 hp); the F8 Tributo runs the F154CE variant (3.9 L, 720 hp). The Portofino's calibration is tuned for GT drivability — a longer torque shelf and earlier boost delivery than the F8's track-oriented calibration. Mansory's F154BE stage-1 uplift is sized against the Portofino's GT calibration, not the F8's.

Is a Soft Kit tier offered for the Portofino?
Not currently. Mansory's Soft Kit tier is offered specifically on the F8, Roma and MC20 programmes. The Portofino Mansory programme is a full-conversion kit with front bumper replacement — reversibility is not a design goal because the Portofino / Portofino M is not tracking as a collector-market asset the way the F8 Tributo and the Roma are.

What is the difference between the Portofino and the Roma in the Mansory book?
Both run the F154BE V8 family and both target the front-engine Ferrari GT buyer, but the Portofino is a 2+2 retractable-hardtop cabriolet targeting open-top GT use, and the Roma is a fixed-roof 2+2 coupé targeting closed-cabin touring. Portofino commissions cluster in Mediterranean / Florida / Gulf winter open-top-use geographies; Roma commissions spread more evenly across year-round geographies because the fixed roof removes the climate dependency.
