CarMad Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 We have all seen pictures of Ferrari's at some time and another and thought what I wouldn't do to get a drive in that. But which one is your favorite and why that one ? The performance, the shape, the first car poster you had on the wall maybe. I was going to do which is the best but thats so subjective so favorite it is. Oh and no its not a full list, but you have to pic from one of these.

Calm Chris Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 512 BB, the bubble shaped one pre testorossa or the Dino. The Dino (246) curves are sexier than most supermodels. Dino 246 512 BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyDub Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Predictable but I have to say the F40, for the red raw driving experiance imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s4_sat Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Mine is an F355 GTS F1 with the removable roof. Black with cream leather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Well the F40 was my pin up without a doubt, but I wouldnt want to own one or drive it everyday. In fact the only Ferrari on that list I would own would be the 599. Its modern and has all the bits, is fast as feck and not too flash.

CarMad Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I find it very difficult to pick just one I have to say. I used to love the 456 GT a very good looking car indeed. The F40 was an iconic car when I was growing up, but I think its the 355 that gets my vote. Their first car for a while that actually handled as good as it looked and it LOOKED like a Ferrari should, sporty as hell and looks fast even when its stopped.

s4_sat Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'd love a 348ts in red jus for the pose value of it. It just screams classic 80s Ferrari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazdot Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 512BB for its looks, or F40 for the sheer driving thrill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ari Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 288GTO, no question. The beauty of the 308GTB, but with some real muscle added in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingRed Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 First Ferrari I really fell in love with was the F355 GTS, sort of the car that got me into cars in a serious way. But I voted for the F360, specifically the Challenge Stradale. The F360 didn't come into its own for me until the CS. Now it sort of sums up Ferrari for me, certainly in terms of road legal stuff. And it is without doubt the best thing they've put on the road in recent memory. It's the focus of the thing, nothing superfluous to it. Sadly its a focus the company struggles to keep.

neilp Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Daytona for me, or maybe the 250 GT SWB Berlinetta, or possibly the 250LM or perhaps it should be the car that started it all the 166 tipo? Nope, changed my mind again, the 250 GTO :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I have driven a few 360's on both road and track and found them all to be a massive disappointment. Very twitchy and a spikey power delivery. The CS is supposed to be miles better and that would certainly be on my list. I just cant swear by it as I was so disappointed with the 360. Now a 430CS would be a different matter. I would have the 599 as this, and use it everyday: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alastair_A3 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I voted for the F40 Although in more realistic terms (and i will have one in a couple of years) F355 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Dino 246. Provided it's not a kit car with a Cortina engine in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamiekip Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 288 GTO from '84. Then the F40, then like woppum says a 599 something more 'day to day'... ha ha, in my dreams! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D1MAC Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 FXX - Even Stevie Wonder would find that somewhat visually challenging I know some of the tech is top dollar but I only ever think 'easy way to part a rich man from far too much of his cash without involving cards, horses or women' when I see it. Another vote for the 288 GTO from me Just the right amount of power/tech clothed in the best looking body they've ever made. Only possible issue is that Eddie Irvine has (or did have) one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Now this I dont agree with. We all know I hate the Bucrappi but this is a different car. Yes, only the wealthy can afford it, but we have to remember what they are buying for their bucks. You get put in a fecking racing league with all the other FXX drivers and taken to all the best tracks in the world. On top of this there will be access all areas F1 no doubt, work with the engeneers and no doubt you will get back at least what you pay for it come selling time. I cant think of a better way to spend personal money. Speaking of these. I got a call from Mum this morning. She is in St Tropez at the moment. She said out side the hotel was a blue and white rocket. Knew what it was instantly... Any guesses!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
