It seems like some Ferrari owners are more equal than the others. At least that’s what the company’s chairman, Luca di Montezemolo, implied when he told Autonews Europe about Ferrari's plans to create a collectors’ club with the purpose of giving loyal customers some extra privileges.Di Montezemolo conceived this idea after the roadster version of the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, the SA Aperta, which had a limited production run of only 80 cars, caused friction between Ferrari and some of its customers.
"I don't want our faithful collectors to miss the opportunity to buy one of our special series”, said di Montezemolo, who apparently thinks that loyal customers should have first rights to any special model Ferrari rolls out.
Although it isn’t official yet, it’s speculated that one or two cars are not enough; to make the cut you have to own at least five Ferraris. According to the company, there are nearly 300 collectors around the globe who own five or more Ferrari models.
We guess Jay Kay and Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason will probably be among the first to be invited.
