Dubai Police Just Put an 800-HP Mansory Ferrari 812 Superfast on Tourist Patrol

Dubai Police has added a new supercar to its tourist-facing patrol fleet, and this one carries a name enthusiasts already know well. Unveiled at Arabian Travel Market 2026 at Dubai World Trade Centre, the force's latest addition is a Ferrari 812 Superfast reworked by German tuner Mansory -- the fifth joint build between the two in just two years, following a Mercedes-AMG G 63, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, a modified Ferrari 296 GT and a Lamborghini Revuelto.

Mansory's version of the 812 pushes the standard car's naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 further still, with the tuner quoting around 800 horsepower, a 0-100 km/h sprint of roughly 2.8 seconds and a top speed near 345 km/h. The visual treatment is just as aggressive: a reworked front bumper, deeper splitter, sculpted side skirts and a rear wing sized for a track day, all wrapped in a white, green and yellow livery designed to be seen -- and photographed -- from a distance. Dubai Police says the car will be stationed around Burj Khalifa, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard and JBR, the same tourist corridors that have hosted its Lamborghinis, Bugattis and Bentleys for over a decade.

Marketing on Wheels, Not Just Policing

It's easy to read the fleet as a novelty, but it functions as one of the most effective pieces of destination marketing the emirate runs. A Ferrari in police livery parked outside Burj Khalifa generates more phone cameras -- and more searches for "Dubai supercar police" -- than almost anything else the force could put on the street that week, and that attention flows straight back into the image Dubai has spent two decades building: a place where exotic metal is simply part of daily life, not a once-a-year motor-show curiosity. That the car exists at all, in a genuinely functional 800-hp, road-legal, officially registered form, says something about how normalised extreme performance has become here. It's also a reminder of how central Mansory has become to Dubai's exotic-car scene specifically -- not as an occasional visiting tuner, but as a workshop with a standing relationship to one of the city's most visible institutions.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers in Dubai

For the private market, stories like this tend to have a real effect on demand. Every time a modified 812, Revuelto or Cullinan gets this kind of exposure, interest in both the donor car and the tuning house that built it ticks up -- and that's exactly the segment House of Cars Dubai spends most of its time in. We regularly source and place Ferrari 812 Superfasts, Mansory-modified cars and comparable V12 flagships for clients across the UAE and wider GCC, whether that's a buyer chasing the exact spec they saw on a police car outside JBR, or an owner ready to sell a car that's done its time being photographed on Sheikh Zayed Road. If you're weighing where a genuine 812 -- stock or built by Mansory -- sits on value today, or looking to source one before the next headline pushes demand up again, that's precisely the kind of call our team in Al Quoz fields every week.

The bigger picture is simple: Dubai's supercar culture isn't confined to showrooms and hotel valet stands anymore -- it's now part of how the city polices its own tourist strips. For a market this closely watched, that's not a gimmick, it's a fairly accurate signal of where demand, and prices, are headed next.
