Eric Clapton has a variety of signature guitars made by the likes of Martin and Fender. But he is, maybe, the first musician to have a signature Ferrari.

The model, officially called the SP12 EC — give you one guess as to what the “EC” stands for — is quite similar to the Ferrari 458 Italia. The big difference is the body panels, which are inspired by several vintage 70s and 80s Ferraris, which Clapton personally owns.

This Ferrari has a 4.5-liter engine (a bit smaller than Clapton wanted), and style for miles. If you’re going to be driving down to the crossroads, I can’t think of a more stylish vehicle to do it in.

If there's gonna be anybody out there with a custom Ferrari made after them, I'm glad it's you Mr. Clapton!
