I'd rock an old Testarossa. They still cost like 60-80k though.

My neighbors have a red Testarossa. Not a big fan.

Love the look of the F40, but when I sat in one at the tri-state Ferrari club meeting at Circle Center in Indianapolis for the 2004 USGP, I found a huge problem. I can only get one foot down the tunnel to the pedals, so while i'd love to drive one someday, I know that I can't.

There is a F50 in the town next to mine. Black and beautiful.

F360 is a nice looking car, but i'd rather have the F430.

But the ultimate Ferrari, from an aestetics (sp?) standpoint, i'd have to say it's the Enzo. I don't know what it is about it, but it's the most beautiful Ferrari i've ever seen in person.

Im almost 25 but that doesnt mean anything. The F40 is an ugly *** car. If it was unveiled for the first time without any badge, people would be like wtf. I think its because of its racing history + the ferrari badge that makes people like/adore it more.

I dont, its ugly. I dont care if it has a 100,000 dollar clutch that can read your mind or can pull 4g's on the skidpad. Its ugly. But hey its a ferrari.

The enzo is another ugly *** car. Just because its a ferrari, doesnt mean its god. Yes they are awesome cars and i would do anything to own one, but that also doesnt mean you have to like EVERY single one of them. That silver ferrari i quoted i would take over an enzo or basically any other ferrari posted in this thread.

I like modern looks and style, not classic, "hey thats vintage bro" type of ferrari.

And FYI, i did see an F50 and an enzo in person already. The F40 no, is there even any difference?

hey now no need to argue!! i posted these pics so others could enjoy them!! i have to agree with you on the fact that the F40 is not as visualy appealing as say a McLaren F1, but you cannot deny the performance of the car!! that is what always attracted me to the F40, performance!! it stood as THE performance benchmark for years and no one answered execpt say McLaren, but even the F40 was looked at as a starting point for even that car!! but hey im not trying to start a war amongst us rotor heads, for which most if not all can't afford a Ferrari even if we sold every thing we own, i just figured that we could all be brothers and sisters and just enjoy the sights of a few Italians!!

Im not arguing, i was stating my opinion and i had to further it because i guess some people didnt agree. I cant please everyone.

If you like the F50 or enzo, thats cool. Im not mad or mocking if you do. I just said, IMO, those are some ugly *** cars. I dont care about its performance, i said the LOOKS ARE UGLY. Just the looks. Ok one more time for good measures, THE LOOKS are ugly lol

I hope we're clear now.

Now post more modern day ferraris please

Yeah you're right.

I was really looking at the front of the car, not the rear.

Anywho, its an amazing machine.

well the FXX is the enzo race car!! as most know you had to be invited to own the Enzo, well only a select few Enzo owners were invited to buy the FXX!! so you go from rare(Enzo) to ultra rare(FXX)!! it was a site to behold. i was expecting the Enzo but not the FXX. and some of the most rare of Ferraris were there like the 1949 166 with a S/n of 0006 MM. i was lost in a sea of motor heaven. well i am glad you all are enjoying the pics and when i get off my lazy *** and post some more you will have lots to drool over!!

rxmclaren7 did you see any Ferrari GTO's? It's one of my favorite models, 1988 I think. My exotic car calendar said they're worth a cool million, Any reasons why?

I think the car you're thinking of is the 288 GTO, the predecessor to the F40 and one of my favourites. Here's a pic - it kinda looks like a hot rodded version of the 308
