Top Five non 12 Cylinder Ferraris

[clutch-monkey]

That's what all Ferraris do. Except perhaps the 612.

haha, speaking of tacky i am reminded of the 512..
i don't really think older ferrari's like the 456 and 246 are 'too much'.

The 930 is the Turbo.

the 930 IS the turbo

didn't know that, i thought 930 was just the generation name like 964, 993 etc etc
it does make sense given the different model names they had then like 911 SC, 3,2 carrera etc
guess i never really looked into it.
edit: aaah i should have known.. i have raced with a 934 before.

I don't expect much great aesthetics from ferraris... They are there to go fast... Not win beauty contest... In ferraris, all i'm concerned of is performance... I admit that the F50, FXX, and the Enzo are not great looking cars, but I think you'll change your mind when they hit the track...

if i wanted speed and to hell with aesthetics i'd buy a caparo T1 or a Radical or some such.

No offense dude... but we're talking about "Ferrari"... Not Caparo and Radical...

[clutch-monkey]

what?
ferrari's are not just about performance. how can you pose in an ugly car? lol.
if it was all about track performance, there are far better options..

Battista Pininfarina disagrees with you.

Choosing a Ferrari can be tricky. Choose the wrong one and you look like a cock, choose the right one and the consierges will open the doors for you.

930 was the internal code given to the original 911 Turbo, just like the 944 Turbo is the 951.

small revenge for my "930" mess, and nipticking of course:

very easy to do the former but trickier to do the latter it seems...

ah i see. it just seemed analogous to the generation number; listed as such in used car ads i mean.

Knew it. But his surname was changed officially by the Italian Republic.

that's right, since everyone called him just Pinin Farina.
by that, our Prime Minister should be called "The Thief" though.

Ferrer, what Ferraris don't make you look like a cock?

I think you'd have to drive a pre-1980s one, even then though, I think the image of the wealthy is that of the prick.

[clutch-monkey]

even some of the older ones though, might just look like 'failed wealthy prick' lol. like a 308 or 328 etc haha

250 GT Lusso, and if it is too old, I would go for the 612, and if this is too recent, I would go for the 456M.
something smaller? 355.
something bigger but not 4 seats? 550/575M. or the 599 itself, with the right rims though.

And then there's the whole Testarossa line.

Which should be avoided at all costs.

A modern Ferrari that doesn't make you look like a twat? The 456 definitely.

I desperately like the 512TR

exactly. although like leon, i think sometimes there's something oddly compelling about the 512TR. but i dunno if this feeling would continue if i had to drive one in daylight in public.
