- Jay Kay commissioned the only Signal Green LaFerrari among all 499 built.
- The hypercar has covered just over 7,400 miles since it left the factory.
- RM Sotheby’s expects the car to sell for between $4.6 and $5 million.
Out of the 499 LaFerraris built by the Italian brand, most left the factory in predictable shades like red, black, or yellow. Jay Kay had other ideas. When the British musician placed his order, he went for Signal Green, a hue that feels far more at home on something from Lamborghini’s back catalog than anything from Maranello.

It remains the only LaFerrari finished this way, and it stayed with Kay until 2019. From there, it passed to another UK-based owner before changing hands again in 2023, this time heading to mainland Europe. Earlier this year, it even made a public appearance at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena. Now, it’s preparing for its next chapter at auction.
How Much Will It Fetch?

Jay Kay’s former LaFerrari will be sold by RM Sotheby’s at its Monaco auction in April and is expected to sell for between $4.6 million and $5 million. It has been driven just over 12,000 km (7,454 miles) since new, and has had the original high-voltage battery replaced with a new one.
The color won’t be to every Ferrari collector’s taste, but that’s precisely the point. It sets this car apart from the sea of predictable specs, and we suspect that there’s a good chance someone will value that enough to pay a premium for it.
Contrasting the vivid green paint work is a gloss black roof, silver five-spoke wheels, and yellow brake calipers. Carbon fiber is used generously throughout, including on the front splitter and rear diffuser, giving the whole thing a suitably aggressive edge.
Green With Envy

It’s not just the outside that leans into the theme. Step inside, and the cabin doubles down with a heavy dose of green throughout. The seats pair black and green leather, the dashboard follows suit, and even the seat belt buckle surrounds are finished in bright green leather.
Like pretty much any limited-edition LaFerrari, prices of used LaFerrari models have soared since the car was introduced a decade ago. Low-mileage examples are now routinely trading hands for in excess of $5 million. In fact, a black example with just 554 miles under its belt recently sold for $6.88 million, and while Jay Kay’s probably won’t go for that much, it does make you wonder if selling early was the right call.
So, whether you love it or think it looks like a highlighter on wheels, it’s undeniably one of the strangest LaFerraris out there. Curious? Go check out the listing over here and see if you’ve got enough green to match the paint.
