Ferrari-Inspired Design Takes Center Stage

The Ferrari-inspired design dominates this collaboration, with the laptop finished in Rosso Magma—a vivid red shade that captures the sheen of Ferrari's Icona Daytona SP3 and other models1

. The color treatment adds visual depth, while the palm rest features a special lenticular finish designed to convey motion blur. Most of the chassis uses anodized aluminum with CNC-machined finishes, but the underside incorporates carbon fiber construction reminiscent of supercar engineering1

The transparent engine bay represents one of the most distinctive design elements. This Gorilla Glass panel on the laptop's base features over 2,000 individually drilled micro-holes that serve both aesthetic and functional purposes, allowing airflow while providing a window into the processor and dual-fan cooling system1
