When you’re Eric Clapton, it’s not just Fender you can ring up and have make you something with your name on it- Ferrari will take the call, too. So here we have the Ferrari SP12 EC, a one-off made especially for the former Cream axeman, based on the 458 Italia.Clapton has been a Ferrari person for decades, and in particular a fan of the 512 BB, of which he’s owned three. So, although his car is based on the 458 Italia, its styling is inspired by the 512 BB.

It’s the work of Pininfarina and the Centro Stile Ferrari, with Clapton guiding the process.
