Meanwhile the first 'Tailor Made' car in the USA will be handed over at Pebble Beach this weekend: an FF, which has been personalised by the famous British golfer Ian Poulter thanks to the innovative personalisation programme available from the Prancing Horse. The car’s livery is a triple-layer “Sabbia” colour, while the interior is made of black Poltrona Frau leather with tartan pattern which aims to mimic a clothing range from Poulter.

The boot in carbon fibre and high-tech fabric reminds of the world of golf with some details, like the tartan, used for the first time in a car. The British golfer will receive his FF during a special evening with the participation of Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa.

The Prancing Horse will also take part in other events at the Pebble Beach festival. In the Gooding & Co auction catalogue there is a 1973 365 Daytona Spider certified by Ferrari Classiche and models such as the 1960 250 California Spider Competizione passo lungo and the 1955 857 Sport, once owned by the artist Andy Warhol. Those cars will probably reach 10 million dollars or more.

On Sunday Ferrari will participate in the great Concours d’Elegance in two categories for the Prancing Horse. Pebble Beach is still a way for clients and collectors to come together and share their passion for the cars from Maranello, for which the USA is still the biggest market.
