It’s not just the specifics of any Prancing Horse that stand out, but also the way Ferrari handles its customers. They have a special something put aside for every single sportscar buyer; it’s a culture they build around fast, luxury and classy autos. That is why when a Hollywood A-lister like Keanu Reeves visits the Italians’ headquarter he’ll spend the day.
For a Hollywood celebrity that once strapped a Christmas tree to the roof of his Porsche 911 Carrera 4, the Matrix star sure has his way with speed machines.

In fact, we all know that Reeves is rather a fan of the two-wheeled beasts, being even the creator of a couple of special models. Whether you liked the concept Harley-Davidson by Arch Motorcycle or the more recent cruiser the actor designed along with Gard Hollinger Craft, it’s safe to assume the 50-year-old actor is a biker.

On the other hand, here he is, visiting the heart of Ferrari, in Maranello, where the exotic supercar magic happens. And judging by the Italian automaker’s report, Reeves spent the whole day, visiting everything from the assembly lines, the Tailor Made atelier to the Classics Department and the new GES building.

Similar to any such celebrity visit, this one too wasn’t only about sightseeing. No, the Point Break star did some proper driving as well. He first test-drove the Prancing Horse’s newest arrival, the Ferrari 488 GTB, on the Fiorano circuit. “It’s a car you instantly feel an incredible synergy with. It’s like it’s tailored around you, an extension of your body and your mind. There’s no doubt about it: Ferrari is the dream,” Reeves said.

Taking a proper picture at the wheel of the almighty LaFerrari which was on display in the atelier was the next thing to do. Then, the day ended with a quick spin with the California T, the company’s “entry-level" machine.
