Not A Fan Of The Portofino? Give This One A Look – A Wheels Boutique Build



It’s no secret that the Portofino isn’t the most favored model in the Ferrari lineup but we felt it just needed a little bit of love to get it to a place where people would admire it. A longtime Canadian client and friend of ours purchased this Italian droptop and ordered the stunning HRE P104SC’s in Frozen Polished Clear. The finish has an incredible sheen to due to the processes that it undergoad after machining is complete. It first enters a tub that polishes the aerospace-grade aluminum causing a mirror-like affect and then it enters a powdercoating room to have a satin clearcoat spayed on top.

Suspension and exhaust were not left untouched. For good measure we drop shipped Novitec’s sport springs and IPE’s performance exhaust to his local installer so that both the sound and stance could match the level of awesomeness that the rest of the car possessed. We know that this car still won’t please everyone, but boy has it totally changed our perception of what a Portofino could be.
