There’s been a lot of speculation among Pinoy netizens lately about this particular car. Mind you, it’s not just any car.

“One unit of the extremely limited-edition supercar LaFerrari, of only 499 to be produced, will soon arrive in the country. The owner? A politician from the North,” reports Motion Cars, an Inquirer.net motoring site.

The report then took time to expound on the posh “virtues” of the car: “The LaFerrari is dubbed the company’s most ambitious road car project, with its hybrid 6.3-liter V12 powerplant capable of 963 hp and 900Nm. Top speed is in excess of 350 kph. Price is an estimated US$1.69 million (USP76 million), excluding taxes and shipping. If we add the applicable customs duty, VAT and ad valorem tax, the total cost of the car would be PHP190 million, excluding shipping.”

The report went on to add more hints about the car’s Pinoy owner.

“This Filipino LaFerrari owner is neither a billionaire nor a rich businessman but a powerful politician from the North. The LaFerrari owner is reportedly shipping in his baby soon and will have it parked inside one of the country’s economic zones. I know you all have stock guesses on who that powerful politician is, but your first answer is most likely wrong,” said the report.
