These days, and thanks to the increasing number of IT billionaires, Ferrari is getting more and more customers who buy their cars not because they appreciate them, but because they want to show off. To show us what a real Ferrari connoisseur is like, they interviewed the great Ferrari collector Albert Obrist when he arrived at the factory to pickup his new Grigio Ferro LaFerrari .
The Swiss collector has one of the world’s most important Ferrari collections, which he began putting together in 1962 when he bought his first Ferrari, a 250 GT 2+2. The LaFerrari he chose to buy is finished in grey, or Grigio Ferro Met to give it its official name. In this video you also get a good look at this astonishingly beautiful piece of machinery:
While we’re at it, let’s checkout another interview with another prominent Ferrari associate. It’s the great F1 driver of the years gone by, René Arnoux, who recently visited Maranello with a group of enthusiasts:
