why will it get me in trouble
No real value added to the community, guy. I'm sure there's a FAQ on it somewhere.
Btw, mine is the Ferrari 250 Lusso, then F40, then 330 GTC.

"11. The official language of this board is the English. We encourage everyone to write, as much as possible, in correct and complete words and sentences. The use of SMS-like writing is strongly discouraged."
Still, punctuation is not the foremost reason your posts lack quality.
Some tips:
1. Post quality > post quantity
2. If there is an existing thread on the topic/car, feel free to consolidate, instead of starting a new thread.
3. Try to be concise or informative. Some veteran posters have earned the right to behave otherwise. They have earned this ability by submitting tens and tens of good quality posts.
4. Most people join a forum in order to learn and/or contribute.
5. The forum demands respect, thus thoughtful dialogue must be cultivated. You would not use crayons on an oil painting, would you?

Exactly.
New guy,
When I see a new member post a bunch of times my first thought is spam. My second thought it middle school kid with access to the parents computer. Try joining in other threads. For the most part until you prove that you are worth talking to I wouldn't bother responding to any of your threads.
I love absolutely everything about the F40, for me it is the definitive super car and no matter how much money I had the first car I would buy would be an F40.
There are too many things to mention but one thing I have always like is the shape. Yes, it's very much an '80's product but unlike every other car of the 80's I like to think that the average person on the street would still think 'that's an old but clearly special Ferrari,' as compared to 'Wow, that poor person can only afford that old Ferrari.'

To be honest, I don't even think people would think of it as an "old Ferrari". To this day, it looks like a modern, purpose built racing machine that is on the cutting edge (which is about right). People would still drop their panties at the sight (and sound) of it and stand in amazement.
the 355 spider.
Such an impressive design, imo the best looking ferrari in the last 2 decades. Maybe not the quickest but such a panty dropper. I guess its that whole wedge design that i've dribbled at since I was browsing uniquecars mags when i was young tacker. The 355 spider and lotus esprit are probably the most desirable cars I'd ever dream to own, too bad im driving a goddamn 94 hiace with 300k on the clock at the mome....gutted
[quote=culver;951722]Exactly.

+1... stop feeding the mindless poll troll. :mad:
See avatar ^
would have gone for Challenge Stradale had it been included.
Ferrari is a brand where each and every car they build or have built in the past means something to someone out there. We have to consider our elders in this forum too, who probably wouldn't even be able to choose from that list. In other words, trying to make a "favorite Ferrari" poll with a limit of 15 choices is destined to fail. Sorry to burst your poll bubble friend ;).
yes that is the problem 15 Choices is not enough
[quote=thebrochureman;951755]yes that is the problem 15 Choices is not enough[/quote]
You keep on not getting the point.
If the problem was the number of choices available, you could have just asked what was our favorite Ferrari period, no need for a poll, as if someone really need a list to decide his favorite car he either doesn't have a favorite car or don't know enough about cars.
I'd love a 355 but its not ont he poll...so i voted for a 430
My favourite Ferrari is the Lancia D50.
There you go.
[quote=Ferrer;951765]My favourite Ferrari is the Lancia D50.

Oh, so you want to play that game, eh? Mine would either be the Lancia Stratos or the Thema 8.32.;)
Mine is more Ferrari than yours though. It was even badged as one. :)
I'll see your Stratos (nice) and Lancia D50 (double nice) and raise the 1947 125S, the FIRST true Ferrari. :D
Call. :rolleyes:
365 gtb/4
not that my vote would change but i noticed that the testarossa/512TR aren't on the list. The testarossa was the car that made me first fall in love with ferrari when i was a child.
Then it's going to be the Auto Avio 815 I guess.
[quote=LeonOfTheDead;951784]Then it's going to be the Auto Avio 815 I guess.[/quote]
I was just going to mention it.
Let's include prewar 8Cs while we are at it.
If you're asking for specific cars:
1) 1525GT
2) 0813GT
3) 4218GT
If you're asking for models:
1) 250 GT Cabriolet Series I
2) 250 GT California LWB
3) 250 GT Tour de France
All the ones you've listed are very nice and I'd love to have any of them, but they're not these.
Neither of mine top three Ferraris are on the list!
I'd go for a 250 Pininfarina, a 308GT4(yeah, I'm a bit original) and maybe a 250 SWB.
From the list? Maybe a California.
Oh my, where to start. Why just one ? Lets see, 250 swb, 275, 288, 333, 430, 550, F40, F50, and soon to land on the list, 458 !! Each one has it's own elements that I love individually and for specific versions of each. But I must say the 550 is very high on that list, both street and LM versions.

Good hand, Leon... you win.:D
[quote=Ferrer;951793]I was just going to mention it. Let's include prewar 8Cs while we are at it.[/quote]That works too. You guys are great.:p

Out of those, the 456M.
But really it's the 250gt Pininfarina 2+2

If we're playing that game, I'm all about the Scuderia Ferrari AR Tipo B, but...
I'd also settle for an ATS 2500GT... C'mon, guys! You know that cute lil' thing is a Ferrari at heart (or at least according to the CV's of those behind it)!
But my heart melts for 0515 GT, the most beautiful Ferrari of all (IMHO) and the inspiration for the 550/575 GTZ. Gotta love those C-pillars, or, more descriptively, Z-pillars!

One-offs count in my book. :D
What a great photo of my favorite! Those curves and bumps in all the right places, drawn up by passion and intuition, not dictated by a computer and windtunnel. Oh, how I ache for 0515!
And I was hoping my ATS would bait somebody into bringing in the ASA! Well played, sir! Well played!
Bizzarrini 5300GT? Altough we are probably stretching it a bit too far here.
[quote=Ferrer;958660]... probably stretching it a bit too far here.[/quote]
Indeed, starting a dozen or so posts back. :) What else to do but ignore the poll?
After the inclusion of the AA815 and Lancia D50, as well as the Dino's and SF Type-35's, I decided to try to steer it towards inclusion of all "Ferrari-derived/badged" or "Ferrari-descendant" cars as well as the crappy choices at the top of the thread. Much more fun this way, yes? And with Bizzarrini's name on it, the 5300GT (as well as the similar Iso's) fits just fine.
Thumbs up for F40..At the time of its production it was the fastest and most advanced Ferrari model.More power,faster and safer..
