World's ugliest Ferrari is worth $1 million!

By Roger Scoble

Digital art innovator Laurence Gartel has had his work exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) and has customised pieces for the likes of Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears.

His latest "masterpiece", however, is almost abominable — the world’s ugliest Ferrari. And he claims it’s worth $1 million.

You may feel that a Ferrari needs to be left well enough alone. "That may be true, but when a collector has more than 10 of them, you can begin to see the options," says Gartel. "Artistic and cultural minds change our thought process. I tip my hat to Enzo Ferrari for having real vision in the automotive world. It is about to evolve into a prophetic significance."

We don’t think Gartel, whose work is in the permanent collection of Smithsonian’s Museum of American History, set out to make the luxury car unattractive. He transformed a $3,00,000 Ferrari F430 Scuderia into a moving canvas, using every colour imaginable in a nightmarish combination, apparently commissioned by "art social network".

Of course, Gartel’s Tesla Roadster Sport "Art Car" could also be named "The world’s ugliest Tesla".
