The base for this limited edition is the "595 Competizione," positioned as the most high-performance model in the 595 series. It comes equipped with items that enhance driving performance, such as an engine producing 180 ps, Sabelt sport seats that balance hold and weight reduction, the high-performance "Record Monza" exhaust system, and Brembo front brake calipers.
The "595 Momento" retains the high fundamental performance of the base model while adopting the special "Grigio Opaco" (matte gray) body color, which is not usually offered, for the exterior. Furthermore, dedicated carbon accessory parts have been added to the door mirror covers and lip spoiler, creating a sporty style that evokes a race car.
The interior also features a mood-lifting atmosphere, with a carbon instrument panel, Sabelt sport seats upholstered in exclusive fabric, and yellow seatbelts that serve as interior accents.
The chassis is equipped with exclusive 17-inch alloy wheels with a 12-spoke design, yellow center hub caps, and yellow Brembo 4-piston brake calipers. Additionally, it features a mechanical LSD, as used in the "695 Biposto," lauded as the "ultimate model," to enhance acceleration performance out of corners. All limited edition vehicles come with a 5-speed manual transmission, with 31 right-hand drive and 49 left-hand drive units available. The price is ¥4.12 million.
