About Prugna Metallizzato
Prugna is a historic and striking color from Ferrari’s palette. It’s a complex tone that’s hard to describe. The name “Prugna,” meaning “plum” in Italian, reflects the color’s elegant, dark plum tone, which can appear more vivid or muted depending on the lighting. Under direct sunlight, a dark purple tone appears while in other conditions the color displays more of a burgundy red to brown tone. The color was mainly available in the 80s and 90s but can be seen on a select number of newer models as a special Tailor Made option.

FER 306/C" in the range used from the 400i of 1984 to the last 412, and a factory sticker transcribed by Four Wheel Drift reads "VERNICE 306 PRUGNA MET.".
