Vehicle Overview

Lancia Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale: A Car Fit for Brigitte Bardot. In 1958, the Lancia Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show, capturing attention as a proposal for a future Flaminia convertible. This distinctive model inherited its design from the Coupé variant but with a sleek, open-top configuration. The allure of the Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale extended beyond automotive enthusiasts to the glamorous world of Hollywood. At the 1958 Paris Motor Show, the renowned actress Brigitte Bardot encountered the car and was immediately captivated. Bardot’s admiration for the vehicle led her to purchase it, albeit with a personal request: she desired a new color scheme and custom upholstery. In response to Bardot’s preferences, Pininfarina, the famed Italian design house responsible for the car’s styling, undertook the task of modifying the Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale. The car was repainted and outfitted with bespoke upholstery to suit the tastes of the iconic actress. This personalized touch by Pininfarina ensured that Bardot’s Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale was not only a symbol of automotive elegance but also a reflection of her unique style and personality. The association between Brigitte Bardot and the Lancia Aurelia B24 Spider Speciale cemented the car’s status as a timeless icon of design and sophistication, blending Italian craftsmanship with Hollywood glamour. Today, it stands as a testament to the intersection of automotive artistry and celebrity allure during the golden age of motoring.
