    The wagon is a custom coach build by Pininfarina and is privately owned by the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah.

    Starting out as a 456 GT equipped with a V12 442 HP engine, the Sultan added 2 more doors and a hatchback to make a truly unique Ferrari you could tote you kids around in. Other customizations on this right-hand drive model include a slightly stretched wheelbase, new bodywork on the back end, and new seats.

    Seven were made and the Sultan owns six of them, reportedly purchased for $1.5 million each in 1996.

    proof that ferrari can flex their chassis to accomodate a "slightly" bigger body.
