Ferrari Unveils the One-Off P540 Superfast Aperta
By Chris Weiss
Coming from Ferrari’s Special Projects–basically a toy store for the richer than rich in which Ferrari will work directly with the buyer and produce the exclusive stallion of his dreams–the P540 Superfast Aperta modifies the 599 GTB Fioriano to resemble the Ferrari in the 1968 film Toby Dammit. How nice it must be when your father invents cable TV.
Seriously though, is it us, or is money wasted on those that have it? If you were given the chance to build your own Ferrari, couldn’t you come up with something better than recreating a tawdry-gold Ferrari from some obscure, 40-year-old movie? And couldn’t you think of a more interesting name than “Superfast”. Yes, I know, it has history, but branding clearly wasn’t what it is today. Not to hate, but this is just a shame.
Oblivious to the error of his ways, Edward Watson stated: “This is the most special Christmas present of my life.” Wow, that makes me gag a little. [via AutoBlog]
