LOUIS VUITTON AND SINGER VEHICLE DESIGN JOIN FORCES TO REIMAGINE PORSCHE 911

 


Louis Vuitton and Singer Vehicle Design have joined forces on two reimagined Porsche 911s, marking the first time the French luxury house has shared billing with another brand on a finished product.

The collaboration started with a relatively small request: Louis Vuitton was brought in to create a dashboard clock. From there, the project expanded to encompass nearly every functional element of two 964-generation 911s, one a 390 hp naturally aspirated coupe and the other a 510 hp turbocharged cabriolet.

The two cars take distinctly different approaches. Jean Arnault helped define the saffron-and-cobalt coupe, which draws on Louis Vuitton’s historic color palette and trunk-making heritage, while Nicolas Ghesquière shaped the white-and-gold cabriolet around the look of classic wooden speedboats. Both come with removable Tambour timepieces, custom luggage, and their own Louis Vuitton capsule collections.

MICHAEL JORDAN'S FERRARI 512 TR FOUND


In 1992, during the height of his NBA career, Michael Jordan purchased a sleek black Ferrari 512 TR. This iconic vehicle was famously captured in photographs as Jordan arrived at Game 5 of the 1992 NBA Playoffs, further cementing its place in sports history.​

Jordan sold the Ferrari in 1995 to Chris Gardner, the entrepreneur whose life story inspired the film The Pursuit of Happyness. Gardner personalized the car with the license plate "Not MJ" and drove it around Chicago.​

After being sold at auction in 2010, the Ferrari vanished from public view, becoming a mystery among car enthusiasts and Jordan fans alike.​

Now, after 15 years, the legendary Ferrari has been found. Vintage supercar specialists at CURATED tracked it down to a California owner who had kept it safely stored away. Despite facing personal health challenges and nearby wildfires, both the owner and the car remained unscathed.​

The Ferrari is now set for a comprehensive restoration in Italy, aiming to return it to its former glory.​

This incredible story highlights how iconic moments and memorabilia can resurface, reigniting memories and admiration for legends like Michael Jordan.
