What is the most beautiful Ferrari....according to you?

IMHO the 166 mm Barchetta is the most beautiful car of all time.

 

First place goes to the 288GTO, period.

Then the 250 GTO and racing beauty/supercar the F40.

 

Sorry, but I just never understood the visual appeal of the Daytona. To me it's ungainly and boring. Kind of like a Corvette Stingray.
Hard to believe it was designed by Leonardo Fioravanti, same guy who drew the 308... ??

No question the engine note is classic, but I think the looks are somewhat blah....

Flame suit on.....

I have a hard time deciding between the 250 GTO and the 275 GTB.

 

Agree 100%

 

1. 275 NART Spyder

I'm on the bandwagon for the NART Spyder. With the top down it accentuates the perfect curves of the 275 w/o the smallish glass and roof of the coupe.

2. SWB California Spyder - covered headlights

3. 500 TRC - one of the most beautiful race cars on the planet

 

250 California Spider without a doubt.

 

That's alright. You've got good pickins.

 

250 LM
BB 512
288 GTO

this threesome in my garage , and i will be a happy man

 

This is kind of difficult...

For vintage: 246 GTS, then the 328 GTS (not really "vintage" I guess, but still...)

For Modern: 550 then the 456

 

Hardest question ever! I would have to say a 360 CS in TDF is probably my favorite in looks. Absolutely stunning! But then there is the 250 GT SWB or the 512 TR or the 355. It is just too hard to answer they are all beautiful in their own respect.

 

312B or 312B2 for race cars

575 Superamerica, P4/5, or F40 for road cars. Can't pick one, that is an impossible task.

 

Yes. 308 GTB.

 

F430 Spyder
and Enzo!

 

I am 100% sure that the 250 GTO is the most beautiful car ever made, followed by the SWB, 375 Plus and F50 This is how I'd want mine:

Thank you for saying what needs to be said.

It's a pudgy odd looking car.

 

My Top 3 would be:

Classic:
250 GTO
275 GTB (long wheelbase)
330 P4

Modern:
512 BB
F355
F50

 

Classic:
250 GTO
250 Lusso
250 LM

Modern:
F50 GT
F40 LM
F355

 

Going on styling alone:

330P3 / 246GT Dino
375 California / 250 California
250 Lusso

Works of art.

 

Well... according to me (which, if I'm reading it correctly, is what this thread was about ), you're wrong.

It's a muscular car with an amazingly long and complex bonnet and an imposing stance, and it was a groundbreaking car that pretty well influenced everything that came for the next 20 years. It was the Ferrari that initiated the 'belt line' that followed on the Boxer/308/328, 288 GTO, F40, 348 and 355. Even the door handles are art -- everything that came before pretty much used the standard pull. Those four tail lights became a Ferrari signature. I think I'm right about this, but those legendary five-pointed star wheels that graced racers in the '70s made the leap to production cars with the Daytona - before that wire wheels were the rule.

The interior by itself is stunning, launching the 'Daytona' seat tradition. And those tailpipes... menacing.

It is much more subtle than something like the F40 or the Lambo Miura, but in the metal it's a beautiful brute. In black and tan, it has presence unlike any other modern-ish car I've seen.

Exactly. The proportions of the roof always looked slightly off to me.
