Well, I'd wager today just became the unofficial day of the hypercars. First Aston Martin revealed its new hypercar, now Ferrari has pulled the covers -- and the roof -- off its newest hypercar.
SEE ALSO:Aston Martin and Red Bull Racing's hypercar looks extraterrestrialNow, if the above black, roofless Ferrari looks mildly familiar, that's because it's the open-top version of the LaFerrari hypercar that was revealed in 2013.
Like the hardtop version, this open-topper is powered by 788-horsepower V12 engine that's mated to an electric motor. All told, the open-top LaFerrari produces 949 horsepower.

What's more, designers have also tweaked the body's aerodynamics a bit so that it's just as slippery in the wind. That means the performance of the car won't be reduced when losing the roof.
I don't know whether its the fact it has no roof, its honed body lines or its paint scheme, but the open-top LaFerrari looks decidedly like the original Batmobile, if you ask me. And I'm not mad about it.

Essentially, the car was sold out before the world knew it existed.
