Ferrari's Special Projects program, also called the Portfolio Coachbuilding Program, was launched in 2008 as a way to revive the tradition of past one-off and limited production coachbuilt Ferrari models, allowing clients to work with Ferrari and top Italian coachbuilders to create bespoke bodied models based on modern Ferrari road cars. [1] [2] Engineering and design is done by Ferrari, sometimes in cooperation with external design houses such as Pininfarina or Fioravanti, and the vehicles receive full homologation to be road legal. [2] Since the creation of Ferrari's in-house styling center in 2010, the focus has shifted away somewhat from outside coachbuilders and more towards creating new in-house designs for clients. [3] [4]
