A Ferrari Sergio, a One-Off Carrera GT, and a Different Kind of Car Show in Miami

Time to Drive Miami brings rare supercars, mechanical watches, and collector culture together in Wynwood for a weekend built around extraordinary machines.

A Ferrari built in just six examples. An Amazon Green Porsche Carrera GT described as one-of-one. And a collection of automobiles whose stories extend far beyond their horsepower figures.

Miami has no shortage of exotic cars. But this weekend, the city’s attention turns from the machines parked outside its restaurants and hotels to something considerably more curated.

The inaugural Time to Drive Car & Watch Festival, running November 6–8, 2026, brings rare automobiles, fine watchmaking, motorsport personalities, and collectors together at Mana Wynwood.

Co-founded by Lex Borrero and Perri Dash, the event explores a connection that feels particularly suited to Miami: the worlds of exceptional automobiles and mechanical watches share more than expensive price tags.

Both reward craftsmanship. Both attract collectors searching for unusual specifications, remarkable histories, and details that most people will never notice. And both can turn a mechanical object into something deeply personal.

What You Need to Know

  • What: The first Time to Drive Car & Watch Festival, presented by the lifestyle brand 0260 (Zero To Sixty).
  • When: November 6–8, 2026 — a Friday track-day experience at The Concours Club, then public exhibitions Saturday and Sunday.
  • Where: Mana Wynwood Convention Center, Miami.
  • Headliners: A Ferrari Sergio, a one-of-one Amazon Green Carrera GT, Project Geländewagen, the Bad Boys 964 Turbo and the Otis Maybach 57.
  • Tickets: Sold through the official festival site.

A Ferrari Sergio and an Unusual Carrera GT

Among the vehicles announced for the festival is the Ferrari Sergio, one of only six examples produced.

Created as a tribute to Sergio Pininfarina, the Sergio transformed the mechanical foundations of the Ferrari 458 Spider into an extraordinarily rare open-top sports car, powered by the 605-hp, 4.5-liter V8 from the 458 Speciale A. Each of the six was configured by its owner through Ferrari’s Tailor Made program, so no two are quite alike.

Its sculpted bodywork and dramatic proportions reflect the longstanding relationship between Ferrari and the Italian design house.

The announced lineup also includes an Amazon Green Porsche Carrera GT, described by event organizers as a one-of-one example.

The Carrera GT hardly needs an unusual paint finish to attract attention. Its naturally aspirated V10, carbon-fiber construction, and six-speed manual transmission have made it one of the defining analog supercars of the 2000s.

Yet an individual specification can give even an already exceptional automobile a different identity.

Together, the Ferrari and Porsche illustrate two sides of collecting: extraordinary production rarity and the appeal of a particular vehicle’s individual configuration.

Other announced attractions include Virgil Abloh’s Project Geländewagen, a Porsche 964 Turbo associated with Bad Boys, and the Maybach 57 featured in the music video for Otis. The organizers’ featured-car list also runs to a Ferrari 250 GTO, an F40, a LaFerrari and a Czinger 21C.

They represent very different corners of automotive culture, connected by the stories that made them recognizable.

When Cars and Watches Share the Same Room

Time to Drive isn’t simply a traditional car show with a watch display added afterward. Fine watchmaking is central to the experience.

Participating brands include Chopard, Zenith, Jacob & Co., Grand Seiko, MB&F, and independent makers such as Greubel Forsey and Urwerk, whose creations can be every bit as unconventional as the automobiles surrounding them.

The connection goes deeper than luxury branding. A mechanical chronograph and a naturally aspirated supercar engine both demonstrate the appeal of intricate machinery operating with extraordinary precision.

Collectors may appreciate the shape of a watch case in much the same way they admire a carefully sculpted body panel. A rare movement, like an unusual factory automotive specification, can become a subject of fascination in its own right.

The festival brings those interests into one environment, with exhibitions, discussions, and opportunities to meet people involved in both worlds.

German Engineering Takes Its Own Stage

Beyond the rare exotics, Time to Drive includes Icons of Stuttgart, a dedicated presentation of Porsche and Mercedes-Benz history.

The exhibition highlights the different ways the two manufacturers have approached performance, craftsmanship, and automotive design across generations.

For collectors, the appeal often extends beyond outright speed. An original specification, an unusual production history, or decades of careful preservation can make a particular vehicle worth examining long after its performance figures have been surpassed.

It’s a reminder that a car doesn’t need to be the fastest or most expensive machine in the room to have an extraordinary story.

Miami’s Collector Culture Finds Another Stage

The festival began Friday with a separate driving experience at The Concours Club. Its main public exhibitions take place Saturday and Sunday at Mana Wynwood.

Organizers have outlined a program featuring more than 200 automobiles, nearly 40 watch brands and independent makers, collector discussions, live art, and appearances by automotive personalities including Matt Farah, Larry Chen, Spike Feresten, and racing drivers Felipe Nasr and Patrick Long.

For Miami, the concept makes sense. The city has long attracted exotic automobiles, luxury design, and international collectors. Time to Drive brings those interests together in a setting where the conversations surrounding the vehicles may be just as interesting as the vehicles themselves.

The Ferrari Sergio and unusual Carrera GT are natural attractions. But the larger idea is what makes the event different.

An extraordinary car can be admired for its performance. A rare watch can be admired for its precision. The most memorable examples of either tend to offer something beyond the numbers.

They have a story worth telling.

And for one November weekend in Miami, those stories are sharing the same room.
