When it comes to the pinnacle of sports cars, a small number of brands can match the luxury and pedigree that Ferrari offers to consumers. Legendary Italian cars are a cult phenomenon themselves, and it would be weird to see any celebrity who loves cars not paying attention to the brand's offer.
Why is Justin Bieber blacklisted by Ferrari? The news that the singer is on the black list of the famous car company was first reported by the Italian "Il Giornale". According to this media, Justin is now banned from buying or driving "Ferrari" cars because of the way he treated the "Ferraris" he owned in the past. Ferrari is very strict about who can own their cars, as well as the levels of maintenance and care they expect from those owners. Because of its great passion for the vehicles it creates, Ferrari does not look favorably at people who "harass" cars.
In Justin's case, he obviously caught the brand's attention by doing some not-so-popular things with his 2011 Ferrari 458. The singer is known for exclusive supercars, and among them are Ferrari LaFerrari, Fisker Karma, Ferrari 458 Italia, and others.
However, the pop star made a mistake that is unforgivable in "Ferrari". In essence, Bieber did not follow extremely clear rules, that is, he did not respect the code of ethics that the company from Maranello insists on, so the ban is final. The singer bought a Ferrari 458 Italia and painted it Electric Blue, and that job was done for him by the team from "West Coast Customs". He also installed a wide body kit from "Liberty Walk", and his biggest and unforgivable mistake is that even the "Ferrari" logo on his car is done in blue.
"Ferrari" informs every customer not to "play" with the car, so it does not allow illegal engine modifications or any body modifications, and the car needs to be licensed to be painted. Another mistake of Bieber is that he sold his blue "Ferrari" at auction in 2017, less than a year after the purchase, which the company from Maranello also does not allow. Fortunately for Bieber, nothing is stopping him from buying "Ferrari" models from other owners.
He is not the first celebrity to be on the "Ferrari" black list, because there are also Kim Kardashian, rapper 50 Cent, as well as actor Nicholas Cage. No matter what, with a fleet that includes "Rolls-Royce", "Maserati" and other top labels, the singer will surely get over this blow.
