While modern cars grab attention with futuristic design and cutting-edge engineering, it’s the classics that age like fine wine, quietly waiting for the right moment to be recognized for their beauty and brought back into the spotlight as timeless icons. Kendall Jenner has long come across as an old soul when it comes to her taste in cars—whether she owns them or not, she clearly appreciates the beauty of classic car design. Whether it be cruising through Calabasas in a 993 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S or being spotted beachside behind the wheel of a Toyota Land Cruiser 60-Series, it's genuinely cool to see a celebrity enjoying something other than the latest-and-greatest supercar covered in carbon fiber.
Kendall Jenner’s classic car journey continues as she recently featured a pristine Ferrari 512 TR finished in silver as a cameo in a brand photoshoot on her Instagram. With over 1.2 million likes in less than 24 hours on the post, Kendall’s comment section is flooded with celebrity siblings and friends like Kylie Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, Charlie Puth, and so many others. What looks to be finished in Argento Nurburgring, the Ferrari 512 TR represents the evolution of the coveted Ferrari Testarossa, showcasing a similar silhouette and styling characteristics but significant mechanical, chassis, and drivetrain improvements.
The 512 TR also symbolizes a special breed in Ferrari’s fleet of supercars, one that’s gradually being edged out by advancing technology and hybrid powertrains, helping drive these V12 examples to new heights in value and demand on the collector market. So, whether it’s a genuine passion for all things automotive or just a well-timed coincidence that an “IYKYK” Ferrari shows up on the Instagram of one of the world’s biggest celebrities, Kendall Jenner clearly has a sharp sense for what’s cool and collectible in the classic car world.
