The 'LaFerrari Spider' is Ferrari's new sleek sports car that could be its most exclusive yet.
The convertible seats two people, is all black and has subtle red accents on both the exterior and the interior of the car. While the reveal of the design did not come with too many details about the functions and features of the sleek sports car itself, it has been confirmed that the car has already been sold out. The company held a private viewing that evoked a strong enough reaction that the car sold out at the event. Approximately 150-200 of these cars will be created compared to 499 for the original. It will cost $1.4 million -- 40 percent more than the standard Ferrari.
While the LaFerrari Spider was sold out before it even became available, its beautiful design and status as one of the fastest and most rare cars in the world certainly makes it noteworthy.
