atA 1961 Ferrari 400 Super America SWB coupé aerodynamico (one of only 17 such variants ever made).
Powered by a 4.0l Colombo V12 with Pininfarina styling, a unique Blu Sera paintjob and leather interior, it was shorter, much prettier but no less powerful than its predecesor.
Yours for a trifling $3.25 million+ from Sothebys.
The Infinite Galaxy Puzzle by design studio Nervous System – a 133-piece jigsaw with an image of galactic central point (taken by the Hubble telescope) on each side.
Based on the principal of the Klein bottle, an impossible 3D shape with mathematically identical inner and outer surfaces, the puzzle can be constructed in a myriad of ways.
Intriguing? Annoying? Either way, the long winter evenings will just fly by.

From top: Keep x Ad-Rock Ramos: Adam Horowitz
Adam Horowitz, a.k.a. Beastie Boy DJ Ad-Rock is launching his own line of runners early next year.
No shock announcement from a big music personality, until you read the blurb:
Made with nylon cordura — a vegan water-resistant material — the “Keep x Ad-Rock Ramos” shoes feature a midtop design, vegan shearling lining, synthetic down stuffing, and are embroidered with Ad-Rock’s name in magenta.
All profits made from the sneaker will be donated to health care organization Planned Parenthood.
“Net proceeds of this shoe will be donated to Planned Parenthood because I support a woman’s right to choose, and feel that women should not be punished for making decisions about their own lives and bodies,” Ad Rock says.
Available for pre-order for $97.
Perfect to accompany your REPEAL jumper.
FIGHT!
Any excuse

atThe Bentley X Bamford Mulsanne Speed – a one-off custom by (and for) George Bamford of the UK-based luxury timepiece personaliser (yes, such services exist) Bamford Watch Department.
Bamford’s ‘dark Bentley’ uses Miltary Grade Titanium Coating and Graphite Particle Coating with blacked out wing vents and grille, a ‘darkware’ interior including seats covered in leather and anthracite cloth with a carbon fibre watch case in place of the usual cocktail compartment.
Steady on.
