Deadmau5 handed cease and desist order by Ferrari
Deadmau5 has been issued with a cease and desist order by car giant Ferrari.
The Italian car manufacturers had apparently taken issue after the DJ put 2013 Ferrari 458 Spider (F1 Edition) up for sale earlier in the year, customised with images of internet meme Nyan Cat. You can see a picture of the car here.
The DJ revealed details of the cease and desist letter on Twitter, writing:
I wonder if the jackass lawyer at @FerrariUSA who sent us a "cease and desist" letter over the purrari is un-butthurt now that I unwrapped.

Yeah it was mostly about the custom floor matts and the custom purrari badges. Whatever. It's just a normal ass 458 now. All good.

Deadmau5 revealed the car earlier this year and used it to complete in this summer's Gumball Rally, travelling the 3000 miles from Miami to Ibiza in seven days.
The DJ released his seventh studio album while (1>2) earlier this summer, you can preview it on the right hand side of the page.
