This F50, described as "one of the most truly special and unique F50s available" is one of just two US-specification F50s in Giallo Moderna.
Images show the yellow hypercar with a contrasting Nero leather interior in immaculate condition.
With fewer than 5,400 miles on the clock, the car was commissioned by fashion icon Ralph Lauren whose collection of motors is widely seen as one of the most elite in the world.
The listing states the motor was "ordered new and retained for eight years" by the fashion powerhouse.
The F50 produces 513 horsepower and sprints to 60 miles per hour in just 3.6 seconds, powered by a 4.7 litre naturally aspirated V12 engine.
It also has a removable targa roof and is clothed in carbon fibre, Kevlar and Nomex honeycomb composite.
The motor also retains its Ferrari Classiche Certification which confirms the originality of all its components.
In addition, a new Red Book will accompany the sale.
This follows the F50 receiving a fresh service at Ferrari of Central Florida which included a fuel bladder replacement, new tyres and renewed brake components.
It's set to go on auction with RM Sothebys and will be sold with original documentation.
Gordon Ramsay adds stunning £4m Ferrari to supercar collection leaving fans stunned
This includes a "duplicato" warranty book, the owner's manual in its original leather folio and a Ferrari flashlight.
The listing states: "It is very rare that Mr. Lauren has parted with a car once acquired, making the opportunity to purchase a vehicle with his provenance quite a rarity.
'The car is offered with fewer than 5,400 miles at the time of cataloguing and has just received a fresh service by Ferrari of Central Florida at the end of 2024, including replacement of the fuel bladder, tyres, and brake components.
'Further, the F50 also had its Ferrari Classiche Certification reviewed and renewed last year, with a new Red Book to be received by the time of sale and, of course, confirming that all components remain original and exactly as they should be in such a well-preserved, much-loved example.

'In a world of low-mileage F50s, this car benefits from the sought-after US specification, as one of only two in this rarefied colour, and from a pristine, 'no-stories' history, beginning with Ralph Lauren and continuing with 22 years in the good hands of the present owners.'
The F50 hasn't been shown in public or displayed since 2009.
Just 349 production F50s were built and while every one is special, some are more special than others.
Only 55 were made to US specification and of those, only two were finished in Giallo Modena.
Another super rare Ferrari also went to auction recently, selling for a record price of £6.3 million.
Its believed to be the oldest Ferrari in existence and was Enzo Ferrari's first car, designed to compete in circuit racing and drive on the road.
It was also reported last month that another iconic Ferrari, with a top speed of 201 miles per hour, was to sell for £2.4 million.

Inside Pink Floyd star's super car collection worth £200million including rare Ferrari and motor from Steve McQueen film
A ROCK legend boasts a supercar collection to die for that includes a rare Ferrari and a motor from a Steve McQueen film. The Pink Floyd star also owns the world's most expensive motor worth a staggering £40 million. 5 5 5 Legendary drummer, Nick Mason, and his wife Anette showed off the impressive collection ahead of opening up the gardens of his 18th century home to visitors this weekend. A rare 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO took pride of place among the collection as its one of only 36 ever built. It's understood Mason paid £37k for it back in 1978 but it is estimated to be worth over £40 million today. The car finished third in the 1962 Le Mans 24 Hours race before he bought it and has never been restored. His fleet of rare Ferraris also includes the 512S which featured in the making of Steve McQueen's Le Mans before it was badly damaged by fire and then completely restored. Others on display included an F40, a GTB/4 Daytona, 1953 Ferrari 250MM, and a LaFerrari hybrid. It is estimated there are 40 sports cars in his garage worth a total of around £200 million. Other rare vehicles include a 1901 Panhard 5-liter, a 1927 Bugatti Type 35B, a 1957 Maserati 250F, a Birdcage Maserati, a 1955 Jaguar D-Type and a 1996 McLaren F1 GTR. He also owns several Aston Martins including an Ulster, and an LM17, LM18 and LM21. Mason hosted the Middlewick House Open Garden this weekend that saw thousands attend and admire his stunning collection of vehicles. The annual event in Corsham, Wiltshire, is a favourite among car aficionados and owners of Jaguars, Ferraris, Aston Martins, and more, who bring their vehicles to complement Mr Mason's collection. Wiltshire Bobby Van Trust, one of the charities that benefit from the event, described it as a "Mecca for car clubs and owners of Jaguars, Ferraris, Aston Martins, Lotus, Maclarens, Bugattis and Porsches." The event's other beneficiary, Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance, said more than 10,000 tickets have already been sold for the open garden and the attendance record is expected to be smashed this year. Last year, more than 11,000 people attended, raising a whopping £124,000 for charity. As well as the extensive car collection, guests were also able to view the air ambulance's Bell 429 helicopter with its operation aircrew due to be on-site to give people a closer look. The event also featured stalls manned by local artisans and food vendors, as well as live music, children's activities, and a play area. The event's website said: "Wander around the beautiful gardens and menagerie of animals, as well as seeing a selection of Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason's classic and high performance cars. "The family-friendly weekend includes plenty of stalls to browse, with lots of items for sale, including jewellery, plants, candles, and art." And if you haven't had enough of car collections, F1 star Lando Norris lifted the lid on his luxury car collection last month. It includes an ultra-rare £2 million Lamborghini and iconic £1 million Ferrari. 5 5
