What's your favourite Ferrari?

[andrewparker]

If I could only choose one Porsche for my fantasy garage it would have to be a 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7.

most people have offered their favourite Ferrari, but qualified it with other statements regarding their preferences. i think that's fair enough really. it still answers the question and there's nothing wrong with a healthy discussion regarding supercars 

bit disappointed with the lack of photoage tho. (no Robin, that doesn't mean a babe draped over a supercar  - but if you have an example of said photo i wouldn't complain!)

Let me help with that:

I think that what Ian (the OP) means by his thread title is "Assuming you love Ferrari's, which one (Ferrari only) is your favourite?"

So, stating you prefer another marque such as Porsche, Lambo, etc is actually off topic. We all have our individual preferences and should respect the preferences of others.

Aren't some of you being a bit pedantic?

Thank you Robin. Eloquence beyond my capacities! What is your favourite Ferrari? If you don't like Ferrari's, you probably haven't got a favourite one!

....Doubtless due to my English Public School heducassion.

My favourite Ferrari? - Quite a few, each for a different reason, but the 458 Coupe would be the most practical and suit my needs. I would probably want to keep my GTI as well though.

Old School? I think I'm going to stick with the 288 GTO. Amazing styling, a muscular supercar take on the 308/328, and precursor to the F40 in terms of perfomance. But contemporary? 458 Spider for me.

456 GTA

F40 gets the vote from me chaps.

That said I followed a 458 along the road today and it looked pretty mega, though gotta say this 458 looked a tad out of place doing 25 mph in Newcastle traffic just after 6:00pm. Not being thrapped up some mountain pass with loadsarevs onboard.

However it was very shiney and very red. And the dark grey wheels look uber cool.

Not a fan and to say why would be off topic but:

F40 is the only one I would pay money for.

456 GTA

I absolutely loved the 456 GTA when it came out. Don't think time has been kind to it though.

Yes thats the car I would take over ANY Ferrari any day of the week.

Obviously if I was given a Ferrari I could sell then it would be the most expensive one so I could buy the above.

TBH even the ethics of Porsche nowadays is debatable but thats progress for you I suppose.

I still believe in my mind that even if I had a bit of money I would still be into VW's but who knows until/if that happens.

i'm guessing models like the Cayenne and Panamera in their line up, rather than being a purist sports car builder. whilst i hate what the Cayenne and Panamera stand for, they have made Porsche much more profitable and hence have made the 911 and Boxster/Cayman some of the best (relatively) affordable sports cars on the planet
