About Arancio Pastello
Estimated from the dominant body color of the carpaints.co photo (Ferrari 458 Speciale; 40% of frame). Arancio Pastello is a rare solid orange finish believed to originate from Ferrari’s bespoke Tailor Made program. Unlike layered or metallic Ferrari oranges, the “Pastello” designation (translating to pastel orange) indicates a flat, non-metallic finish, giving the color a more uniform and classic appearance. It's a vibrant, saturated orange tone, relying on simplicity rather than sparkle or depth effects to stand out. Because it appears only on select commissioned builds, Arancio Pastello remains one of the less documented Ferrari paints.
The story of Arancio Pastello
Arancio Pastello is a solid, non-metallic orange. Carpaints.co lists it as a PPG paint and documents one car, a 458 Speciale photographed by Premoli and logged as a Tailor Made special request, wearing a Tailor Made racing livery of Blu Pozzi stripes edged in Bianco Avus and said to be the only left-hand-drive car with that specification. In the finish vocabulary set out by Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale, Pastello denotes a solid finish with no metallic content, the original Ferrari finish.
