I just don't get it.  :confused:

Saying you don't like Ferrari is like saying you don't like attractive women!

All the old ferraris pre 360 modena used to make me go WOW, when I would see one. All the new stuff is really nice, and I wouldnt say no, but they arent that special anymore or make me think WOW when I see one.

Anyway for me,

Any scuderia
F50
F40
599 GTO

I think I know why this is actually.

Old ferraris where smooth, flowing, and elegant. New ferraris are fussy in design, bulges and wings here and there. It reminds me of what AMG do to mercs, making them look artificially muscular, when they dont need to be! They need to have flowing curves and be sexy, like a woman.

I agree Pov. Some of the newer ones like the F12 just lack the elegance of say the F40.

F40 or 288 GTO.

I seem to remember Tiff or Top Gear or EVO doing something like this and they came up with the F50 as it is basically and F1 car with road legal bodywork plus lights, etc.

I just don't get it.  :confused:

Saying you don't like Ferrari is like saying you don't like attractive women!

there is a flaw in that logic: Ferraris, particularly modern ones, aren't particularly good looking. So maybe your analogy should be "Saying you don't like Ferrari is like saying you don't like functional women who aren't very good looking."

I'm a Lambo man - my affinity for attractive women is not in doubt  :P

 :happy2: :congrats:

The 288 GTO took the classic curves of the 308/328 and gave it supercar performance. My all time favourite Fezza.
