Ken Okuyama - Designing the Enzo, Wedge Cars and learning to be a good driver at Porsche

In honor of our new Wedge Exhibit, Bea and Dan catch up with Ken Okuyama, world famous designer and former head of design at Pininfarina.

Ken was clearly relaxed with us as he told us stories about how Lexus influenced Porsche car development and how Porsche had a direct influence in the development of the Ferrari Enzo.

Designing a car for Luca di Montezemolo came with high risk of losing the project but taking a break for lunch made all the difference!

All that and a whole lot more!
