- The two-tone blue paint scheme makes this one of the most distinctive 296’s we’ve seen.
- Curiously, the Copart listing says the car is not provided with any keys.
- There’s a good chance the car’s 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged powertrain can be saved.
As we all know, red is the color that Ferrari’s most commonly associated with, but you’ll also find plenty of Italian Stallions painted in yellow, white, black, silver, and grey. One color rarely seen on new Ferrari models is blue, but we’ve just stumbled across a 296 GTB painted blue with contrasting wheels. Sadly, it’s seen better days.
This particular 2024 296 GTB was listed through Copart earlier this month in Knoxville, Tennessee. It’s suffered extensive damage in a crash but it might be repairable. Even if it’s not, we’re sure some of its parts can be saved.

The paint immediately caught our attention, and it features two different shades of blue. Most of the bodywork is finished in a slightly richer blue, while accents on the front bumper, hood, roof, and rear fascia have a baby blue finish. It’s one of the most distinctive paint schemes we’ve seen on any Ferrari in recent years. The supercar’s flamboyant looks are topped off with yellow brake calipers and matte bronze wheels.
Most of the damage sustained to the car is focused on the front end where the bumper has been torn off and the driver’s side wheel has been pulled from the car, complete with the brake caliper and disc. The windshield has also been smashed, both front quarter panels dented, and the hood looks bent.
A look inside the cabin reveals carbon fiber bucket seats trimmed in bright blue leather. The blue leather continues across the lower portion of the dashboard, while yellow seat belts have also been installed.
The listing does not mention whether the car runs, although it does state no keys are being sold with it. As the damage is primarily restricted to the front end, we think it’s likely the car’s 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged six-cylinder still runs. If that’s the case, we’re hopeful someone will buy the Ferrari to either fix it up or use the engine for a project.
