Los Angeles will be hosting the One Drop Foundation Annual Gala for the first time this year. It will be held at the Audrey Irmas Pavilion on November 18.
The highlight of this year’s event is the VIP live auction, where guests will get a chance to purchase a Ferrari 12Cilindri. The auction made its debut on October 6, 2025, with an intimate preview dinner hosted at the Dorchester Collection’s Beverly Hills Hotel.
Giacomo Mattioli, Owner and President/CEO of the Mattioli Automotive Group, which owns Ferrari Beverly Hills, unveiled the Ferrari Auction Lot for the One Drop Foundation LA Gala. The winning bidder will bypass global waiting lists to gain access to the 12Cilindri.
In addition to the car, the winning bidder will also get a chance to visit Ferrari’s legendary Maranello factory and participate in the Corso Pilota driving program.
The Ferrari 12Cilindri was unveiled last year in Miami. It’s the brand’s flagship GT, which replaces the 812 Superfast.
Powering the 12Cilindri is a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine that revs to 9500 rpm and produces 819 hp @ 9250 rpm and 500 lb-ft @ 7250 rpm. It is paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Ferrari claims the 12Cilindri will sprint from 0-62 mph in 2.9 seconds and can reach a top speed of 211 mph.
