Readers of a certain age who have spent any amount of time with 1997’s Need For Speed II will certainly get a shiver down their spines just by looking at this beautiful machine: the one and only Isdera Commendatore 112i.
And when we say “one and only”, we do mean “one and only” as Isdera made just one example of the Commendatore, which was named in honor of Enzo Ferrari.
As it turns out, the world’s only Isdera Commendatore 112i is now looking for a new home, courtesy of Isdera themselves and RM Sotheby’s upcoming Paris auction sale, making it a truly unrepeatable opportunity for someone to adopt this magnificent supercar.

One-Off Mercedes V12-Powered Isdera Commendatore 112i Comes Up For Sale ++ Why yes, there s a rearview mirror on the roof.
Bringing back fond memories of playing Need for Speed II SE as a kid in the late 1990s, the elusive Isdera Commendatore 112i is looking for a new owner. Offered directly by the German boutique shop, the one and only gullwing-doored supercar is up for grabs as part of the 2021 Paris auction by RM Sotheby’s scheduled for February.
It’s one of the finest examples of how a small company can borrow from the parts bin of more established players and end up with a spectacular product. Where should we start? With the engine, of course. It’s a Mercedes M120 6.0-liter V12 also used by the Pagani Zonda, developing more than 400 horsepower in this one-off creation. That might not seem like much by today’s standards, but keep in mind the car was built nearly three decades ago.
