Neiman Marcus tucks a Ferrari FF in its Christmas Book

Neiman Marcus, purveyor of all things haute couture, has released its annual Christmas Book featuring amazing--and amazingly expensive--gifts for that special someone for the holidays. For the car fan on your list, consider Neiman's version of the 2012 Ferrari FF--for a mere $375,000. That's a bit more than the near $300,000 asking price for a standard Ferrari FF, but you would have one of only 10 examples of the Neiman Marcus Ferrari FF to be built.
