Motorola aims to make its Z8 cellphone all the more exclusive by teaming up with Ferrari, the most successful Formula 1 team to date. I wonder if the Italian automaker ever pondered over how they have let their brand name appear on more and more tech these days and the impact it will have in diluting the exclusiveness of such a pedigree. Guess the Z8 is the latest in a line of gadgets to come after Acer's Ferrari notebook that boasts the famous prancing horse logo on it. This limited edition handset will come in the normal black and red color scheme, and shares the same specifications as a standard Z8 save for goodies such as free Ferrari videos, custom wallpapers and ringtones, and online magazine subscriptions that you don't need. No word on pricing, but the Ferrari Motorola Z8 will hit stores in Q1 next year.
