Although Italy’s carrozzeria tradition is almost as old as the car itself, there was a time when Enzo Ferrari disdained pretty much every part of his cars that didn’t feature moving mechanical parts. Well, things have changed. Ferrari’s Tailor-made, now concluding its third year, has established itself An increasing number of clients are seeking the expert advice of the specialists of the Tailor-made program at Maranello, each one with something different in mind. Over the following pages we present some examples of what can be achieved, from Paolo Pininfarina, who realized an FF in line with the tastes of his father Sergio, to those who wanted to re-create the classic models of Ferrari’s past, with original racing insignia, materials and colors. When it comes to personalizing your own car, there really are no limits. Turnbull & Asser is a classic British tailor on London’s famous Jermyn Street. There’s wainscoting on the walls, a tangibly historic atmosphere, and nods to some of the firm’s best known clients dotted around the building. Since these number Sir Winston Churchill, Michael Caine and The Beatles, we are talking very well-known indeed. In fact, were you to study James Bond’s shirt cuffs in the opening casino scene of Dr. No, you’d be looking at a Turnbull & Asser shirt. Tailoring is expensive, of course, but extremely satisfying. You don’t need to be a spy, Beatle or Member of Parliament to understand the as one of the most successful personalization schemes in the car business. Originally split into three categories – Classica, Scuderia and Inedita – which effectively posited three different potential personalities for a client’s new car, Tailor-made has seemingly out-grown its remit. As Andrea Bassi, who has headed up this special department since July this year, tells us: ‘Personalization is growing, in the mass market as well as the luxury one. Given that it’s part of Ferrari’s heritage going back to the coach-building era, it’s no surprise that we are at the forefront of it. Of course, customers can still stay within those original parameters if they want to, but they are certainly not restricted to them. We prefer to think of them as starting points to inspire clients.’ It’s evening in Maranello, but the Atelier is still bathed in light. In an adjacent building, Ferrari’s Classiche department offers full restoration and certification for some of its most revered models. In the Atelier, the next generation of Prancing Horse classics are encouraged to take shape. appeal of a well-cut suit, or the intense tactility of fine fabrics.

The only limit is one’s imagination. Of course, this degree of personalization has extended into the mainstream – you need look only at the Fiat 500, for example, for which it’s said that more than 500,000 possible trim and color combinations exist – to see that the desire to stand out from the crowd is one of the notable consumer trends of the 21st century. But as every Ferrari is by definition a singularly powerful personal statement, Tailor-made is about exemplifying quality as much as anything. STUTTGART, Germany - June 25, 2014: For the fourth year running a Ferrari engine has triumphed in two categories of the prestigious International Engine of the Year Awards – Performance Engine of the Year and the Above 4-litre class.

Luckily, there's the Steaklocker. Billed as the world's first at-home dryaging fridge, it uses fan forced air technology and a host of sensors to keep your meat within safe temperatures and alert you (via app, of course) if they veer off course. It also looks great thanks to a stainless steel and glass build that will look right at home in any gourmet kitchen. $1,000 For More Information Please Contact Craig Forbes at (678) 802-5000 or cforbes@Ferrariofatlanta.com Forbes Friday Market Report Fast Tire Repairs with Patchnride This ride-saving gadget permanently seals punctures with just the flip of a switch! If you're turning the pedals a lot, you're bound to get a flat. While knowing how to change your own tire is required knowledge for any dedicated cyclist, it can be a real pain—especially with high-performance racing tires. The Patchnride permanently repairs punctures in less than a minute—and without removing the wheel from the bike. A leak detector (included in the tool) aids in finding the puncture. Simply pull out any debris, pinch the tire, insert the tool and inject the loaded repair cartridge. The gap between the tire is then filled with the patch material, securing you'll be on your way in to time—though you'll need your own pump to get back on the road. Specially designed for high-performance tubular racing tires, Patchnride works on any tire with a tube, from a beach cruiser to a kid's bike to a downhill mountain bike. And, at just 100 grams, the tool won't weigh you down.
