Famous footballer David Backham has turned into a car designer for Maserati for the first Fuoriserie Essentials creations. The Fuoriserie Essentials program looks to involve famous personalities having an elite taste in cars to collaborate with the brand. This customisation package is only available for the Maserati MC20 and Grecale.
David Backham’s MC20 and Grecale are inspired by the 1967 Maserati Ghibli coupé and 1986 Maserati Quattroporte Royale, respectively.
The MC20 sports a ‘Night Interaction’ blue for the exteriors and a tan shade leather interior. The Grecale, on the other hand, is painted in ‘Verde Royale’ (dark green) hue with premium brown leather upholstery inside. Maserati says that 51 units will be produced with the cars having a special metal plate celebrating the collaboration between Beckham and Maserati. No mechanical changes have been made to the cars.
Klaus Busse, Head of Design of Maserati, said: “Fuoriserie means “custom-built” in Italian, and our Trident’s customization program is conceived to create singular experiences for our clients. Our wish here is for them to express their personality and passion by creating their very own Maserati.”
"Just like David, everyone can choose from a wide range of personalization features from our Fuoriserie Corse collection, inspired by Maserati's glorious racing heritage, and from our Fuoriserie Futura collection, dedicated to lovers of technology and new materials," he concluded.
