The pace of innovation in the world of luxury has never been faster, and yet the things that matter most – craftsmanship, tradition, artistry – remain as important as ever. This balance between progress and persistence is the heartbeat of Daily Sparkz and it is the lens through which we open this first edition of 2026.
Take our cover car, Ferrari’s stunning 849 Testarossa. I’m sure I’m not alone in my school crush on Don Johnson’s white 1980s “Monospecchio” model of Miami Vice with a pillar-mounted side mirror and phone in the car, or the red version in Sega’s video game Out run. This dramatic 2026 “redhead” looks tailor-made for the mean streets of the future.
In our BUY section, the Lamborghini Urus SE is also a real eye-catcher and is aimed at a completely different market. We take this electrified super SUV off-road to find out how it compares to its capabilities on the highway. Road tester Michael Teo Van Runkle also gets to drive the sensational Czinger 21C in our DRIVE category, a phenomenal piece of engineering capable of 253 miles per hour – the closest thing we’ve ever had to a jet fighter on the road.
I interview a two-time Formula 1 world champion while McLaren Racing’s Zak Brown talks about his new biography. Seven tenths of a second. He reveals the fine margins it takes to be a winner and that controlling emotions is just as important in business as it is on the pit wall.
In LIVE we bring you our annual Aviation Special, designed to guide you to the very best luxury travel solutions, be it by charter, ownership or membership – plus the must-have accessories. Ed Jones looks beyond the skies and examines commercial space travel, while we also highlight key automotive event dates for the coming year and an in-depth look at the Miami Concours.
Finally, SELL presents a curated selection of the world’s most desirable exotic, classic and luxury automobiles, with Canepa taking center stage while Andrew Riedell reveals the deep history of Ferrari’s Testarossa legend. Whether you’re here to discover your next purchase, explore the horizons of luxury travel, or simply enjoy the stories behind the world’s most extraordinary supercars, here’s the path that awaits us in 2026.
Happy reading and as always: drive carefully!
