    The middle one. sorry, don't know the name...

    I don't like yello cars, and silver is way too plain for a Ferrari...

    They all look good, but my favorite would be the silverstone.

    I prefer the Silverstone, but only with cuoio interior. Otherwise, yellow/black of these choices. I don't like red or burgundy interior. Just too much for my eyes.

    Red int is really growing on me. Not sure about resale but more exotic to me.

    The last time I opened my mouth (or raced my fingers on the keyboard) I made a jerk of myself...so this time I'm gonna say: They're all beautiful stunning Ferrari's and anyone would be happy & thrilled to own one!!!!!! :)




    But I will say that lipstick bright red is....ugh....really something! ;)

    Now....if that darker gray car had the darker pumpkin-like interior: WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

    I think the Spider, in particular, looks amazing in yellow.

    O.k
    I'm going to upset a few of you now.
    I have seen these combos in the flesh and although yellow is a great racing color, In the street it looks like it belongs on a Jet ski IMO
    Silverstone / Red looks great to me.
    It is a question of personal liking as I have Nero Daytona / Red on my 360

    I like Silverstone, however, the silver is nice IMO but it needs to have a better interior choice, such as light gray etc...

    as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. More importantly, what image do you want to project? yellow is racy and flashy - says "look at me". Silverstone and Titanium are a more "mature" color - kind of like a grey suit that will work almost anywhere anytime. Bright silver is not a flattering color of this car - makes it look rather flat.

    I would go with either the first or second colors. Silver is just to boring.

    I tend to agree with this view. When I got a 355 spider, it just had to be yellow, so drop dead gorgeous looking in photos. But on the street I progressively felt I was driving in a yellow fish bowl, just too much. I now have a rosso corsa Stradale with aftermarket stripe. I'm glad it's aftermarket because, as much as I like the idea of the stripe and it's distinguishing feature on my CS, it tends to put me in the category of viper or corvette with shout out loud stripes. Yes, a ferrari is, by definition, a shout out loud car (here I am folks) but pushing the envelope even further (how about pink) or stage 3+ obnoxious capristo exhaust just may be too much to relax with.

    Back in the old days I too had a yellow 308 GTB and as previously posted I agree, the age of the driver has a bit to do with color choice.
    At 50 I already have to deal with the odd " having a midlife crisis" comment.
    Imagine with a yellow spider.
    Mid Life ...........Who the hell lives to 100 ?

    So if I calcualted correctly we have so far:
    Yellow: 9
    Silverstone: 11
    Silver: 0

    Though I voted for Yellow, it is more screaming out then red for sure.
