PRESS RELEASE: Naza Italia, Official Importer and Distributor of the Ferrari brand in Malaysia, has introduced the highly anticipated Portofino M to the Malaysian market. This evolution of the Prancing Horse’s 2+ GT spider, the Ferrari Portofino, was originally unveiled in September last year via an online reveal, which was an unprecedented move in the Maranello marque’s 70-year-plus history.

The Portofino M is the (re)starting point for Ferrari’s pursuit of innovation whilst fully respecting its heritage, passion and constant search for perfection. All of these values are reflected in the new Portofino M. In fact, the ‘M’ in its moniker stands for ‘Modificata’, which in Ferrari nomenclature refers to cars that have undergone an evolution that has significantly boosted their performance.

“The ongoing challenges and restrictions our nation has been experiencing made delays of launch plans inevitable, so we are thrilled to now have the opportunity to introduce the Ferrari Portofino M to the local market and have it join Ferrari Malaysia’s stable of Prancing Horses.

Our clients have already shown keen interest in this versatile model and have been waiting in anticipation for the perfect evolution of the Portofino, which holds the promise of 2+ GT Spider excellence with distinct progressions in character, design, performance and everyday adaptability.

As a true coupé with its top closed and a genuine spider when it is open, the Portofino M offers an enhanced driving experience that is ideal for all occasions and settings,” said Dato’ Nik Hamdam Nik Hassan, Group CEO, Automotive Group, Naza Corporation Holdings Sdn Bhd.
