Ferrari has unveiled it's second one-off car in history after the P4/5 sold to the American millionaire and collector James Glickenhaus. This one was made for Edward Walson, son of John Walson, the inventor of cable TV. The same man came to Ferrari in 2008 and said he wanted the gold-coloured 1965 Ferrari 250GT NART Spyder featured in a 1968 Fellini short film called "Toby Dammit". "I had always dreamed of designing sports cars," Walson explains, "and when I saw this film the decision came of its own accord: one day I would have 'my' Ferrari." Well, guess what he did. The car was designed in Pininfarina and built in Maranello, like other Ferrari cars, and takes styling from the 599 GTB Fiorano, also from Ferrari. The car features a V12 engine and a F1 6-speed gearbox.
