Ferrari have announced a new bespoke supercar created for Peter Kalikow, a New Yorker with an extensive collection of Ferraris. The new Superamerica 45 was engineered and built in-house by Ferrari and was styled by Ferrari Design. It represents Kalikow’s 45 years of Ferrari ownership. The car will be displayed on May 20th at the Villa d’Este Concorso d’Eleganza.
The Superamerica 45 is a one-off creation that features a carbon fiber rotating hardtop, similar to the 575 Superamerica’s folding glass hardtop. The rear of the car had to be redesigned in order to house the roof when in the folded position, which was also made from carbon fiber to reduce drag and increase down force. The famous flying buttresses are body colored and integrated with the rear wheel arches for a more flowing look. The front fenders have been redesigned with two vents and the front grill has a new chromed look specific to the Superamerica 45. The A-pillars, mirrors, and door handles all have a brushed aluminum finish much like the recently announced 599 SA Aperta.
The stunning color that Kalikow chose for the Superamerica 45 pays homage to another one of his most prized possessions - a 1961 400 Superamerica cabriolet. The exclusive color is called Blu Antille and the wheels have been finished in that same color. Other exterior touches include dark blue carbon fiber weaving on the front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser. The interior has been dressed in a combination of Cuoio leather trim and Blu Scuro carbon fiber, and of course the latest and greatest digital touch screen entertainment system.
