Hi and salam aleikum. I am a proud muslim, seeking advice on how to spec a car in the most halal way possible. My dealer has told me that they will help me get a Tailor Made allocation for the upcoming 812 successor, and since this is rumoured to be the last front engined two seater V12, I want this car to be utter special. A tribute to Islam and prophet Muhammad. Just to make it clear: I am very serious, and want serious answers only. I am totally new to the Tailor Made programme. As I would like to go all in on this spec, I wonder if the leather from the cows can be delivered from a muslim provider of halal meat? I want the leather to be from a halal slaughtered cow. Also, I would like to know if Ferrari will make it possible to install Persian rugs in the storage compartment, as well as in the foot well. I would like to have something that is very close to my carpet that I use for praying. It would also be nice if they could code in a short Nasheed playing everytime I turn on the cars electrical system. Like a welcome jingle. Can Tailor Made code something like this/change software after your wish and desire? My dealer was not sure if Ferrari can do this, so that is why I am asking here.
I think we have already seen some crazy specs so I would imagine they can do anything you want as long as it does not require a new homologation. So for the leather for example, they can take the one you want but will not cover the side airbags with them as this would require a new homologation. For the carpets, not sure if they have to follow some rules (maybe on resistance to fire) in which case they might decline. But if some people are able to get a car with an entirely different body (albeit same head/tail lights as this is for homologation) they can go pretty far as long as you follow thru with the cheque book.
Wow OP best post ever. Please, please, please, post up pics and videos when you get this car. Also please contact me if you ever wish to sell it. All the best my friend!
Ramadan started this past week so maybe they haven't had time, or maybe have refrained from coming back to FerrariChat? If someone was devout enough to consider this then it was within the realm of possibility. Then again why ask if you're not going to check for a response.
In the spirit of assuming this is serious post, I know my TM F12 has custom leather that the original owner brought to Ferrari. It was featured in Forza magazine. I assume you can find your own leather sourced however you want to and they will use it.
The individual has been an FChat member since 2013- Albeit not a lot of activity- If a) it's a ******** post just to rile people up then ok- but why? If b) it's a serious post then I have to commend anyone with strong enough religious beliefs to consider those Tailor Made options- AND to post them on a site with A LOT of potentially negative responses.
Hey all - The OP's question is ok to post here. The conversation needs to stay on the topic of car customization. Yes, the OPs question has a basis in religion but the topic isn't religion. Thank you very much!
