anything sexier than a black testarossa!?

Black is the color I saw my first TR the first year they came to the states in the mid-80s at Lake Forest Ferrari in Chicago. I fell in love then. It took me until about three years ago to finally get my own TR. I went with Red on Black... but, I always wanted a red Ferrari. If(when) I buy another TR, it will be black.

 

Nope... nothing can compare...

This one was on ebay recently.

Ya know, I have to agree. I've been in love with black TRs since the Car & Driver issue with a black one on the cover with a hot chick hanging out of it. Anyone remember that issue??

 

Yes there is................one with Shamiles girls in it.

 

Like the Porsche turbos of old, Black/black is best.

And the Ferrari slays the 911 of course.

 

" Is there anything sexier than a black Testarossa!? "

YES !

A RED 512TR

 

Even better: a blue Testarossa!

(i have a feeling this thread is going to turn into a TR colors thread... )

I agree....a spotless black TR is the tops! It's a massive job to keep a black one clean...but nothing looks better. I have a red/tan one now and it is very forgiving appearance-wise when compared to black. But when you want a wicked, Darth Vader machine that is just bad-ass...a black one is the way to go!

 

I agree that it is the best color for it.

 

I was only kidding it does look fantastic in black! Thanks for slipping a blue one in your photos though! lol (the one next to the red pantera)

 

I have to agree. There is nothing more sinister looking on the road than a black TR. Someone on the forum once said when asked how much their car cost responded. "Nothing I stole it from Darth Vader".

I think that would qualify as "Most Sinister".

 

Black is definitely the most sexy colour for the Testarossa - just because this colour avoids the optical dominance of the various mesh grills ribs etc.

A black 512TR is where it's at.

 

+1, I almost bought one but couldn't bring myself to spend 20k more than my 355 for the same performance - though it was close .

The only thing potentially more sinister on the road is a black Countach...

 

yes this is a euro 89 tr rhd (singapore), my third tr, so i decided to do something different, matte black wrap, 19 " wheels, took off the cheese grater leaving gaping side intakes, m lower front spoiler, and m 4round lights rear, gruppe m carbon kevlar intake system ,kreissieg exhaust (sounds out of this world , really high pitch f1 scream at 5000rpm abv ,especially in tunnels) , 512 tr seats,interior redone in black alcantara, black leather and yellow diamond stitching. as im a bit of a dinosaur, i am going to have to wait for a more tech savvy friend to do a proper video/sound clip that does justice to this car, but meanwhile another nice pic from the same drive

I prefer the lighter colors - red, yellow, white, silver on the Testarossa because they allow the side strakes to be more visible due to the contrast.

She is blocking my view of the side strakes...
