The Superamerica is the open-top version of the 575M Maranello and was released in 2005. Its carbon-framed glass roof rotates 180 degrees backward onto the trunk lid, taking 60 seconds; this turns the coupé into a Targa. The V12 produces 540 PS, and Ferrari billed the car as the world's fastest convertible. A total of 559 units were built, only 43 of them with a manual transmission.

The roof is patented under the name "Revocromico." It features a carbon-fiber structure and an electrochromic glass panel. The structure is linked to the trunk lid by a single pivot axis, meaning the trunk remains accessible even with the roof open. This axis sits behind the headrests. The roof rotates 180 degrees backward in 60 seconds and rests flat on the lid.
The Superamerica used the higher-output tune of the V12 designated F133 G, which, as in the 612 Scaglietti, produces 540 PS. Ferrari called it the world's fastest convertible and stated a top speed of 199 mph. The GTC handling package was optional. The production run of 559 cars adhered to Enzo Ferrari's principle of always building one fewer car than the market demands.
