Do you see luxury artwork in the F1 Alpine racing car at Monaco Grand Prix last weekend? Snazzy graphics are the idea of artist Argentina Pantone Felipe. Before the Grand Prix, the Alpine F1 driver Fernando Alonso took Pantone to spin around the Monaco circuit in the Jazzed-up A110 Alpine, the exact car you saw on this page.
“My idea of work on the A110 is to arouse a sense of ‘ultradynamism,’ said Felipe Pantone.” Visual speed is something that I have investigated for years now and that I feel really comes together in this car, emphasizing the brilliant design With a fast technology display. “
We don’t talk about vinyl wrappers. Pantone did everything with his hands and it took several weeks to finish it. And because every car is hand painted by perfection with fine graphics variations, alpine only sells three of the four copies of the limited edition of A110 X Felipe Pantone, making it more exclusive than the speed of McLaren $ 3 million.
“Through this second collaboration with Alpine, Felipe Pantone once again showed the extent of his talent,” said Cedric Jourel, vice president of sales and marketing, Alpine. “Color scheme, geometric shape, and optical effects reveal the A110 in new light, with a sense of increasing movement.”
Before Monaco Grand Prix, Alpine launched the Legende GT A110. Limited with only 300 units, the Legende GT A110 has the same 1.8 liter turbocharged engine from the A110 S, pumping 292 horsepower. Apparently, the A110 X Felipe Pantone is based on the A110 S, so it has a 1.8 liter turbocharged engine that is the same as Legende GT.
Because the A110 s is lighter than MIATA MX-5, it utilizes the output of the turbo engine. It changes from zero to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds and has a highest speed of 155 mph. And with world champion twice Fernando Alonso behind the wheel, definitely feel noble around Monaco, especially with the luxurious paint work.
Each of the three Alpine A110 X Felipe Pantone has a basic price with € 125,000 or $ 152,436 plus tax. Alpine is the first to recognize the latest creation “aim more on collectors and lovers of beautiful objects rather than in the footprint of fans.” Also, no one can go to the Alpine dealer who demands the Pantone Felipe A110 since “the access conditions to obtain one of the three works will be communicated later.”
