American Ferrari enthusiast Peter Kalikow has taken
delivery of his 'Special Projects' Ferrari Superamerica 45, a unique one-off model, the latest in a line
of unique Ferraris produced for buyers wishing the ultimate in Ferrari exclusivity – a car built
specifically for them.
Styled internally by Ferrari Design and engineered and manufactured in-house, the car was specified by
Mr Kalikow to celebrate 45 years since he first became a Ferrari owner. The car made its public debut on
20th May 2011 at the Villa d’Este Concorso d’Eleganza in Italy.
The design is bespoke, featuring a carbon-fibre rotating hard-top which incorporates a rear screen. The
boot is entirely new to house the roof when open, and is now in carbon-fibre with a design optimised to
reduce drag and increase rear downforce.
The rear buttresses are body-coloured, integral with the rear wheel arches, and incorporate rear
quarterlights. The side view is further distinguished by double air vents on the front guard. The Ferrari
Superamerica 45 also features a specific chromed front grille and special burnished aluminium A-pillars,
exterior mirrors and door handles.

The Superamerica 45 is finished in an exclusive Blu Antille, a colour that matches another important
car in the client’s collection – a 1961 400 Superamerica cabriolet (chassis number 2331SA). The wheels
are body-coloured with a contrasting diamond finish to the spokes. The roof and other carbon-fibre
elements of the bodywork – front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser – are in a special contrasting
darker blue, a theme that is carried over to the cabin which features dark blue carbon-fibre dash trim
and driver zone.
The interior is another area of personalisation, with a combination of Cuoio leather trim and Blu Scuro
carbon fibre details and a touch-screen infotainment system.
