A Well Hidden Form Of Function

The Ferrari 550 Had One Of The Most Luxuriously Pointless Options A Sports Car Can Have


The Ferrari 550 was a sporty car, but it was luxurious as well. These things cost $204,000 when new, so I guess they had to be. It should come as little surprise then, that when Ferrari offered an interior roll bar, it wrapped it in leather.

Yes, it makes sense to put an integrated roll bar in a car that can knock on the door of 200 miles per hour. No, it makes no sense to line it in leather other than it fits in with the rest of the leather-lined interior.
