Ferrari Gets that iPod Touch

Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16Ms, recently unveiled in all their Batmobile-meets-James Bond glory, will have an optional iPod built in to the dashboard.
The 16GB touch, black with the prancing horse logo, will come loaded with Ferrari images and sounds — the famous engine purr, maybe?

This is the kind of kit Ferrari owners will love, since the detachable iPod allows them to take the brand with them in places (like the gym, shopping) where it wouldn’t be obvious otherwise that they were Ferrari owners. (I once worked briefly on the Ferrari owners’ site. As a person who let their driver’s license lapse and uses a bicycle to get to work, it was a challenge). And the iPod can keep you company when the car is kept safely in the garage for more practical transport or serve as a memento when you sell it.

The base price for the limited-edition car is $277,000, no word on the extra cost for the iPod upgrade.

    Even IF I could afford a Ferrari i’d NOT buy one, they ARE UGLY, I’d buy a Lamborghini instead!

    Lamborghinis ARE like Mac, consistent design and all of them ARE beautiful!

    In true Ferrari style the automobile has a five-speed transverse gearbox & limited slip differential. Despite no power steering & a slightly heavy clutch the automobile comes alive two times you are on the move.
