Ferrari has whipped the wraps off the Tailor Made 812 Competizione, a one-of-a-kind variant, inspired by die concept of a blank sheet, of its front-engined V12.
Based on one of the 999-example limited-edition 812 Competizione models, the Tailor Made 812 Competizione was commissioned by the Maranello-based firm’s North American arm.
According to the Italian company, “The main challenge was to seek the perfect balance between flawless technical realization and maintaining the creative spark and artistic craftsmanship that flow from Ferrari Chief Design Officer, Flavio Manzoni’s drawings, which provided the inspiration for this model with its unique details.”
The Tailor Made 812 Competizione has been imagined as one of the yellow cards on which Maranello designers transfer their first ideas, insights and notes from mind to paper, and on which new concepts, unique stylistic elements and shapes are composed. Dressed in matte Giallo Tristrato, this special Ferrari’s “most iconic” details have been traced in matte Nero DS Sketch.
The exterior concept has been carried over to the “new-generation” Alcantara-trimmed cabin. The material has been embellished with design sketches, embroidered directly onto it.
The Tailor Made 812 Competizione is scheduled to go under the hammer at the Ferrari Gala — an exclusive event aimed at celebrating the Prancing Horse brand’s unique community and passion for the firm — in New York on 17 October. All proceeds will be donated to charity as part of the education support projects that have been the focal point of the automaker’s charitable activities.
