A gift of love. Christine with her new ride.
MARANELLO: Love is giving. For a Google executive, it meant buying his wife a Ferrari FXX K.
Supercar owner and enthusiast Benjamin Sloss kept the gift a secret by telling his wife, Christine, he would be bringing her to Fiorano to do a little lapping in their 599 XX as a birthday treat. And he did just that. But that was far from all he had planned.
In fact, when they arrived at the track recently, Christine found a beautiful FXX K, clothed, like all their Ferraris in a yellow livery, waiting for her. Naturally enough Christine, who is also a real petrolhead and a mean GT driver, lost no time in getting into her racing suit and putting her latest acquisition through its paces on the track.
Christine said she found the FXX K incredibly communicative, responsive, and confidence inspiring, and extraordinarily fast. After just a few laps she was running 1’20”, with a passenger on board, very close to the Fiorano FXX K lap record!
