You know, I hate to say it but I told you so.
Back when we first caught word of another one-off Ferrari going to a New Yorker I knew there were only two pockets deep enough to satisfy that urge, and one is already developing another one-off running a race this summer.

The vehicle’s alloy wheels are colored in the same hue while the roof and other carbon-fiber elements such as the front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser are executed in a darker blue shade...
