A unique green LaFerrari, personally configured by musician Jay Kay, is set to be auctioned by RM Sotheby’s in April 2026. The hybrid supercar’s striking color, celebrity provenance, and meticulous maintenance history are expected to drive significant interest among collectors.
A vibrant green LaFerrari turning heads on the sunny streets of Monaco is a rare sight. Especially when it’s the one-of-a-kind model customized by Jay Kay, the frontman of Jamiroquai, known for his extraordinary car collection. This exceptional hypercar is heading to auction, and collectors are already marking their calendars, according to ItalPassion.
This Ferrari isn’t just a LaFerrari – a model already renowned for its exclusivity. It’s a singular piece, distinguished by its unforgettable color, a celebrity connection, museum-worthy pedigree, and a comprehensive service record. The combination of its “Signal Green” paint, hybrid V12 engine, and upcoming auction with RM Sotheby’s in Monaco is poised to generate considerable buzz, extending far beyond Jamiroquai fans.
Jay Kay’s One-of-a-Kind “Signal Green” LaFerrari: A Bold Configuration
The Ferrari LaFerrari, first unveiled in 2013, marked Ferrari’s entry into the world of hybrid hypercars. It features a 6.3-liter V12 engine paired with the HY-KERS electric system derived from Formula 1 technology, delivering a combined output of 963 horsepower, a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) acceleration time of around 2.5 seconds, and a top speed exceeding 217 mph (350 km/h). Each of the 499 coupes produced is highly sought after, but this particular example stands apart. The LaFerrari represented a significant leap in automotive engineering, blending performance with emerging hybrid technology.
While most buyers opted for traditional colors like red, black, or yellow, Jay Kay requested a special shade called “Signal Green” – a vibrant, almost fluorescent hue. Ferrari approved the color as part of its extra-campionario configurations, making this the only LaFerrari to depart the factory in this distinctive color. According to Jay Kay, as cited by Italpassion, he wanted to “give a unique personality” to his car. The exterior is further enhanced by a visible carbon fiber roof, Giallo Modena brake calipers, and wheels from the Ferrari Tailor Made program, creating a truly spectacular appearance. The interior boasts a combination of black and green leather, contrasting stitching, a steering wheel engraved with the “Jamiroquai” signature, and even matching luggage.
From Goodwood to Monaco: History, Maintenance, and Auction Details
Delivered on June 24, 2014, in the United Kingdom, this LaFerrari quickly made a public appearance. Just days later, Jay Kay drove it at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the green hypercar ascended the hill in front of thousands of spectators. He owned the car until April 2019, accumulating approximately 1,864 miles (3,000 km) behind the wheel. The car then remained in England, changing hands once before being acquired by a Monaco-based owner around 2023. It has also gained recognition as a museum piece, being displayed twice at the Museo Enzo Ferrari in Modena, in 2017 and again in 2026 as part of an exhibition dedicated to celebrity cars.
Unlike some hypercars that remain stored away, this LaFerrari has been driven while being meticulously maintained. It currently shows just over 6,835 miles (11,000 km) on the odometer, accompanied by a complete service history within the official Ferrari network. Crucially for a hybrid of this caliber, the high-voltage battery was replaced in 2023, and a health check of the hybrid system was performed in early 2026, along with a comprehensive service. This thorough maintenance record is expected to reassure potential bidders.
RM Sotheby’s will offer this LaFerrari Jay Kay for sale in Monaco on April 24 and 25, 2026. The estimated price range is between €4 million and €4.5 million, significantly higher than the values of more conventional LaFerraris, which currently trade around €3 million. Considering Jay Kay originally paid approximately £1.1 million (a little over €1 million at the time), the car exemplifies the premium placed on unique configurations and celebrity ownership. The final sale price will be revealed under the hammer in Monaco at the end of April.
