Despite what many people think, not all Italians own a Ferrari or are obsessed with fast cars. Passion for cars and engineering isn't uncommon, though, but not many people are able to turn their dreams into reality. There are exceptions to the rule. One of them happens to come from my hometown. His story is quite remarkable. 47 year old Luca Mazzanti went from working in his father's classic cars workshop to designing and crafting a supercar with his own hands. From his first prototype back in 2005, he now has his own company that produces high performance, light, extremely exclusive cars that are sold to discerning car collectors in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. His cars are built to the client's specifications, turning them into something quite unique. Now that his dream is a reality, Mazzanti doesn't stop there. To fund the development of his new model, he has had a successful crowdfunding campaign a few months ago. His company is also the first to offer blockchain as a payment solution for his exclusive cars. The next step? Planning the entry into the very competitive US market with enthusiasm and optimism. After all, he's come a long way from restoring classic cars. Let us know what you think of this story by joining the conversation on our social media channels:
