    Le Mans (France), 13 June 2025 – On the eve of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ferrari unveiled the 296 Speciale with the Piloti Ferrari configuration, the latest expression of the Tailor Made programme. This exclusive configuration was designed to celebrate the successes achieved in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and to honour Ferrari client-racing drivers. The official debut fittingly took place at the Circuit de la Sarthe, home of the legendary French endurance race scheduled for this weekend. The unique specification, reserved for clients involved in Ferrari’s official sporting activities — both competitive and non-competitive — is inspired by the 499P, overall winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 and 2024 in the Hypercar category. Designed for those who live the track firsthand, this special livery and finish reflects the identity of a community of client-racing drivers who actively contribute to Ferrari’s racing legacy.

    The Piloti Ferrari 296 Speciale is offered in four racing-inspired colours: Rosso Scuderia, Blu Tour De France, Nero Daytona, and Argento Nürburgring. The exterior livery, inspired by that of the 499P and finished in Giallo Modena, features a hand-painted WEC logo, the Italian flag on the front bumper, and a customizable number chosen by the client. The model unveiled at Le Mans bears the number 51, with which Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado, and Antonio Giovinazzi claimed victory in 2023 — the year of Ferrari’s official return to top-tier endurance racing and the French race’s centenary.

    The cabin features racing seats upholstered in thermoformed black Alcantara®, with inserts made from the same fireproof fabric used for the official drivers’ suits. The livery number is also reproduced on the interior carbon fibre, while the technical metal footwell surface can be customized upon request. Every detail is designed to reflect the driving experience and sense of belonging shared by those passionate about competition. The personalisation is completed by a carbon identification plaque and a carbon-fibre door sill with an exclusive customizable dedication.

    296 Speciale
    The 296 Speciale is a special version of Ferrari’s mid-rear-engined berlinetta that represents the extreme evolution of the 296 GTB, setting a benchmark in driving enjoyment. The plug-in hybrid powertrain combines a 120-degree twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor, delivering a total output of 880 cv. The ICE has been lightened and reinforced with components also derived from Formula 1, while the 8-speed DCT transmission has been optimized with the Ferrari fast shift strategy to maximize electric torque and make gear changes even quicker and more engaging. Weight has been reduced and aerodynamic downforce increased by 20% compared to the 296 GTB. The chassis has been revised for even more responsive and precise track behaviour; the new extra boost software strategy delivers full power during high-performance laps. Its compact dimensions and design integrate radical technical solutions—such as rear gamma wings, suspended splitters, and an enlarged diffuser evoking a racing aesthetic.

    499P
    The 499P is the Hypercar with which Ferrari returned to the top class of the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2023, after a 50-year absence. Designed according to LMH regulations, it features a carbon-fibre monocoque chassis and double wishbone suspension. The hybrid powertrain combines a structural, load-bearing 3-litre twin-turbo V6 with a front electric motor, delivering around 680 cv and active all-wheel drive above 190 km/h. The electric unit also contributes to regenerative braking. Aerodynamics are optimized for efficiency and stability on all types of circuits. The 499P won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 and 2024 with cars #51 and #50 from the official Ferrari – AF Corse team, marking a triumphant return to the most prestigious endurance race.

    Ferrari Tailor Made
    Ferrari Tailor Made is the exclusive programme for clients who wish to personalize every element of their Ferrari, creating a car that truly reflects their character and tastes. Clients are assisted by a team of experts led by a personal designer who interprets their desires while respecting Ferrari’s aesthetic standards. The range of choices is virtually limitless, with the three collections — ClassicaInedita, and Scuderia — guiding clients through a world of exclusivity, elegance, and uniqueness.

    The result of close collaboration with a US-based Ferrari franchise and Ferrari North America’s Tailor Made department, this 2015 458 Speciale was treated to roughly $75k in special wishes, most of which can be found when you look past the Giallo Triplo Strato paint. A Blue Scuro center stripe was chosen to tie the exterior to the interior, featuring Blue Scuro Alcantara upholstery and yellow stitching. For the sticklers among us, rest assured that the interior Carbon Fiber bits have been finished in Blue Carbon as well. An impulse buy this was not and continues not to be, but in today’s supercar marketplace, it just may prove a safe bet at (nearly) any cost.

  • Sammy Hagar’s Cream LaFerrari Just Sells for $4.65M, Setting World Record

    Sammy Hagar’s Cream LaFerrari Just Sells for $4.65M, Setting World Record

    Former Van Halen front man and rocker in his own right Sammy Hagar just sold his unique Ferrari LaFerrari (VIN: ZFF76ZFA2F0212166) via Barrett Jackson’s Fall 2024 sale, setting a new world record price for this particular model of Ferrari. Notably, the car was custom built to Sammy’s specification in Cream over Cream.

    Looking over the Hagar LaFerrari, we’re guessing he built it via the Ferrari Tailor-Made program where discerning clients get a wide spectrum of freedom as they specify exterior color(s), interior color(s) and other details within the specification.

    We’re a little confused on the final price. The Barrett-Jackson social media post (below) lists it as $4.25 million, though the Barrett-Jackson Fall Sale results on their website (HERE) list the price as $4.675M.

    In this case, the colors of the Hagar LaFerrari listed by Barrett Jackson are simply Cream exterior and Cream interior. Sammy reportedly chose the combination to match the color of a 1960s Ferrari he saw pictured on the wall at Ferrari’s Maranello factory during his visit in 2014 presumably to order this car. The color combination also contrasts beautifully with carbon fiber and black accents.

    Also included with the car is a special replica model that was given to Hagar as a gift by Ferrari, a book of the build process and plaque signed by Hagar from when the car was displayed at The Quail during the 2016 Monterey Car Week.

    “I’m so excited that my LaFerrari, the most beautiful one on the planet, is headed back to Scottsdale this fall,” said Hagar in a Barrett-Jackson Press Release. “This car has a new high-voltage battery straight from the factory, so it’s even better than the original. It’s going to be an extra-rocking time because it’s crossing the block on Oct. 12, the day before my birthday. In fact, the winning bidder had better bring a passport, because I’m taking you to Cabo to help celebrate my birthday on October 13. This is going to be a wild ride and I can’t wait to see everyone there.”

    Ferrari Roma Spider Tailor Made: Refined and Elegant Techniques Bring Innovative Car to Life

    • New version of the Roma Spider presented packed with innovative personalisation options
    • The car will be displayed at the ‘One of a Kind’ exhibition in the Enzo Ferrari Museum
    • A further enhancement to the immersive experience of the Tailor Made programme

    [source: Ferrari]

    Maranello, 9 October 2024 – Ferrari presents a unique version of the Roma Spider created by the Tailor Made department: the car will be on display at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena as of today as part of the ‘Ferrari One of a Kind’ exhibition, dedicated to the exclusive world of personalisation for the Maranello-based manufacturer.

    The aim of this Roma Spider in particular is to highlight innovative component production techniques, enabled through the use of special, refined supplies. Standing out among these is work on the fabric in the central panel of the seats with manual stitching that adopts leather from the interior and applies thread obtained from recycled tyres.

    On this car, Ferrari has launched work with lasers on aluminium body components for the shield on the front wing, as well as the option of personalising the bonnet design with a compass rose and the geographical coordinates of Maranello. Aluminium recycled during the production phase in the Ferrari foundry is also used to create some components of the twin-turbo V8 engine, reducing the volume of waste to a minimum.

    Other noteworthy features include the use of chrome-free nappa leather and wood of controlled origin on the tonneau cover and rear floor, as well as components made from sand, on the centre console, recycling the sand removed from casts in the Maranello foundry.

    Collaboration with Montblanc was also of considerable importance, with Ferrari’s partner creating a special edition of the celebrated Meisterstück for the occasion. This iconic writing instrument now sports the same Oro Mida colour specifically chosen by the Maranello Styling Centre to characterise the Ferrari Roma Spider Tailor Made. This unique item is also enhanced with a nib made of hand-worked Au750 solid gold and platinum-coated with a special compass motif, and cap and sections also coated in platinum.

    In keeping with the concept of journeying as a thread running through the whole project, the writing instrument is accompanied by a logbook with a cover featuring reused leather in the same colour found in the interior of the Ferrari Roma Spider: Rosso Bologna and Pelle Metalizzata Oro Mida. Impressed on the cover are the coordinates of Maranello, the same as the ones on the body of the logbook and which recall the compass rose engraved on the bonnet, an indissoluble connection between the writing instrument and the car.

    This Ferrari Roma Spider represented an unparalleled opportunity for research and development on materials and processing to further extend the wealth of personalisation options offered by the Tailor Made department. So it is that the car becomes part of the special ‘One of a Kind’ exhibition installed at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena, which offers visitors a specific immersive experience of the personalisation programmes to which Ferrari clients have access: together with the interactive wall enabling a physical experience of materials, fabrics, colours and the vast range of options that the Ferrari Styling Centre provides for clients, the installation is now enhanced with the particular materials chosen for the Ferrari Roma Spider Tailor Made to make it unique. The car will stay on display at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena until February 2025.

    FERRARI ROMA SPIDER
    The timelessly elegant, high-performance Ferrari Roma Spider is a contemporary take on the chic, pleasure-seeking Italian lifestyle of the 1950s and 60s. Its most distinctive trait is the retractable soft top, returning to the Prancing Horse range on a front-engined car 54 years after the 365 GTS4. The twin-turbo 620 cv V8 from the engine family that was heralded as the International Engine of the Year on four consecutive occasions, combined with the 8-speed DCT gearbox, allows the Ferrari Roma Spider to deliver category-leading performance.

    FERRARI TAILOR MADE
    Ferrari Tailor Made is the exclusive programme dedicated to those who wish to personalise every element of their Ferrari, to create a car that can fully express their character and personal tastes.

    ‘FERRARI ONE OF A KIND’ EXHIBITION
    On 18 February 2024, the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena inaugurated and opened the ‘Ferrari One of a Kind’ exhibition to the public. It is a genuine celebration of the unique quality that characterises every masterpiece that emerges from the company’s gates thanks to the work carried out in the Tailor Made showrooms of Maranello, New York and Shanghai. The exhibition path shows the public the exclusive quality of the unique items that have been created over time to express the personality, tastes and wishes of Ferrari clients.

    Market Find: Ferrari Tailor Made Blu LXL Lucido Tetto Nero SF90 Spider

    You don’t get to the point of viability for Ferrari ownership by half-assing it, especially if the goal is new vehicle allocation. So should your number be called, why opt for Rosso Corsa over Beige? The individual who made the selections for this build certainly had a vision, and we’d say they knocked it out of the park

    A reported one of one finished in Ferrari Tailor Made Blu LXL Lucido Tetto Nero over Lava SC235 Leather sourced from Italian luxury furniture firm Poltrona Frau with Sail Aunde 3D Nero centers to accentuate the stripes Daytona style seats are legendary for, this may be one of the more intricate interiors we’ll feature. Moving past the obvious, the lengthy list of options does include other notable additions like Airbrushed Shields on the fenders and embroidered on the headrests, Carbon Fiber wheels, and Apple Carplay.

    After all that time, dedication, and agonizing, its genuinely a shame that this Ferrari Tailor Made Blu LXL Lucido Tetto Nero SF90 Spider has covered only 160 miles since new. In other words, it’s pretty likely it’s got some original fuel in it, even if the driver didnt take advantage of the claimed 8 miles of electric range. We can only hope the next caretaker of this Tailored Driver exercises it regularly.

    This Ferrari Tailor Made Blu LXL Lucido Tetto Nero SF90 Spider (VIN: ZFF96NMAXP0292368) is currently on offer at Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale, FL in $851,585. See all the details, here.

    Redesigned showroom becomes the first of its kind in the Americas, allowing clients to customize every element of their car.

    Englewood Cliffs New Jersey, 3 October 2019 – Ferrari opens its first Tailor Made Center in the United States today in New York City.  The only space of its kind in the Americas, this new Center continues the long-standing tradition of car customization and personalization that began at the factory in Maranello in the 1950s and later grew into the inception of the Tailor Made Center in 2011, followed by the Shanghai Tailor Made Center in 2014.

    The Tailor Made Center in New York City serves as an extension of Ferrari’s completely redesigned showroom, increasing the size of the previous showroom to 6,600 square feet. The new space includes an owners’ lounge, as well as display space for five cars.  The dedicated Tailor Made Center features an endless array of specification options to meet any Ferrari owner’s personality and tastes including an extensive range of fabrics, leathers, woods, colors and finishes.  Alongside this is an additional dedicated space for a Ferrari Atelier, equipped with the standard range of specification options.

    Three collections function as the starting point for the Tailor Made Program, serving as a connection to the deep history on which the concept is founded. Each has been developed through ongoing research by the Ferrari Design Center, pulling inspiration from the brand’s core values of innovation, elegance and passion. From the sporty and race-driven Scuderia Collection, to the Classica, drawing inspiration from the heritage and history of the house, and the Inedita, which allows free reign for experimentation, options for customization are endless.

    Owners are guided through the Tailor Made process by a Personal Designer, who collaborates with each client on every element of the car’s aesthetic to create the final configuration, from inception through delivery.

    The Ferrari New York Showroom is sure to become a destination for Ferrari clients and enthusiasts in North and South America and is located at 410 Park Avenue.

  • Unique Tailor Made Specification for the Ferrari 488 Pista

    Unique Tailor Made Specification for the Ferrari 488 Pista

    A tribute to the FIA World Endurance Championship  world titles exclusively for client racing drivers

    [source: Ferrari]

    Maranello, Italy – In occasion of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Prancing Horse is launching a unique ‘Piloti Ferrari’ specification for the Ferrari 488 Pista. This special custom creation, the latest from the exclusive Tailor Made programme,  was designed to recognise the success of clients who race Ferraris and will make its debut on the eve of the legendary French endurance race at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Inspired by AF Corse’s no. 51 car, with which Alessandro Pier Guidi and James Calado won the 2017 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ titles, this special finish for the new Ferrari 488 Pista is available exclusively for customers involved in the company’s motor sports programmes.

    The exterior features a new livery with stripes in the colours of the Italian flag recalling the racing version of the 488 GTE, embellished by a laurel celebrating the WEC title, the logo of the championship and the word “PRO” indicating the class the car raced in. The Italian flag livery features again along the car’s flanks which are also adorned with the personal race number each client will be able to add. The version that will be unveiled at Le Mans carries the number 51 used by the world championship drivers. The matte black S-Duct and the natural carbon-fibre ‘dovetail’ suspended rear spoiler and vent surrounds round off the personalisation of the exterior.

    The ‘Piloti Ferrari’ 488 Pista will be available in four different colours inspired by the world of racing: Rosso Corsa, Blu Tour De France, Nero Daytona and Argento Nürburgring.

    The interior, in black Alcantara®, includes seats upholstered with a special perforated version of the same material that incorporates the Italian flag in the central band of the backrest. The national colours are also clearly visible on the edge of the gearshift paddles and on the floormats which, like the carpeting itself, are made of a special technical fabric. The number that features on the external livery also appears on the base of the steering wheel, while all the carbon-fibre trim parts have a matte finish. The personalisation of the interior is completed by an exclusive identification plate and sill trim in carbon-fibre, the latter with the Tailor Made logo.

    The ‘Piloti Ferrari’ 488 Pista is powered by the latest 720-cv version of the 3.9-litre turbocharged V8 which has been voted best engine in the world for the third consecutive year at the 2018 International Engine of the Year Awards.
