    I designed my own Ferrari and I would like to submit it to Ferrari. Is there any way I can. Also, do they even accept proposals?

    Thanks guys and girls..

    Sure. Add an E to the end of your username.

    Ferrari as a company has such a long and rich history of being open to customer thoughts and input. LOL

    It seems very unlikely that Ferrari would take unsolicited submissions, there are a bunch of intellectual property pitfalls associated with doing that. However, Ferrari did do a world design competition in 2011 where design teams had the opportunity to submit design concepts to Ferrari. I'm sure the submission package and rules agreed to by participants addressed the IP issues I referred to. It's not clear if Ferrari would do that again any time soon.

    If you're not connected with a recognized design school or company, your chances of it being seen by Ferrari are probably nil. If you want feedback, you're just as well off posting it here in the Creative Arts section as there are a number of highly competent designers that peruse this board.

    I'm sure Ferrari monitors these forums, so just go ahead and post your designs here for us (and Ferrari) to see. :)

    Perhaps in the Creative Arts section that already has a car design thread? Some of those folks are quite knowledgeable and would be able to provide specific insight and guidance...also, Smiles response to the OP was probably the funniest thing I've read in the past month; thx.
