    I suppose the question branches off from Top Gear's cool wall, so what is the best Ferrari to pick a lady up on a first date? Here is my submission - 330 GTS (this one used to belong to my Dad and he's just brought another one which I'll post pics when its restored needs a lot of TLC at the moment)


    I have been asking the GF whether she wants to tour France in the 330 GTS or the Daytona this summer?

    (not my pic)

    The majority of women I have heard seem to think that blokes who drive ferraris are d*ck heads so I would probably not bother but, if the lady was a petrol head like me it would be a 250 GT California.

    That would get my vote too. Either a 275 GTS or 250 California would do aswell. :)

    I was there at Goodwood Revival 2007 and she sure was pretty in the flesh. One of my favourite models.

    Not sure if that is really true but I know some women would find it way too flashy, in a trying to hard kind of way. This is kind of an urban legend in my experience. I've found having a F-car has quite an allure to women (a really strong pull!) but you should be asking yourself the question as to whether you want that KIND of woman in the first place :) Gold-digger springs to mind.

    I'd personally prefer to drive the understated cool Maserati on the first date and then the Ferrari once your properly dating :)

    I'm with you on this, any woman who is simply interested/impressed by the car (any car) or the image that car represents (whether it's true or not) is sure sign of trouble ahead.

    Maybee fun in the short term if you know what I mean, but long term...trouble =)

    Take a car that looks like it's about to fall apart. If she stays with you after a few more dates, she's a keeper. :) THEN take out the Fcar. :D
