    It has to be the Modena 360M....A drivers car, manual transmission of course Beautiful curves designed to reflect the past Ferrari models with a fresh new look from Ferrari at it's launch in Paris Motor Show ( silver )
    Who said that a Ferrari had to have the grill in the centre. This model will forever go down as one of the greats, due to the inovation that this model represented in the automotive industry of super sports car manufactoring. Pinnanfarina you are a genius, truely a gift from God to represent the very best design has to offer.
    A brave move indeed in design and one that will be in the Ferrari history books in time. Simply a delight in all aspects of what represents Ferrari.

    Ok, here we go...

    It would be hard to argue against the 250GT SWB Berlinetta, so I won't and I will put that first.
    Secondly, Bullfighter must be my long lost brother because even though the 288 is a more historically significant car, the 308 looks better to me, especially in Euro trim.
    Lastly, where I split from Bull, is on the F40. He loves it, I think it is extremely good, but for "modern" cars (maybe he does not consider the F40 modern) the Enzo just floors me, I look at that car and think, "man, Ferrari built an air-superiority fighter that never leaves the tarmac."

    That being said, here are my top three, with a few noted for honorable mention to conclude:
    1) 250GT SWB Berlinetta
    2) 308 Euro QV
    3) Enzo (modern)

    HM: 400i (gets no love, but I love the overall look)//348SS (if I didn't love it, I wouldn't have purchased one)//the back end of a Dino, they go on forever and look fantastic

    Hands down the two most gorgeous pieces of art I have ever seen. If/when I have the means the 288 would be great but I have no problem getting at least one F355 or maybe three

    While I would LOVE to have a 288 (but probably never will), I have to agree that the 308, particularly the GTB, is prettier. It just doesn't look awkward from any angle.

    The 288 is stunning, definitely more aggressive, impressive, historically significant, rare, coveted, valuable, sought-after, copied, and envied. It's also beautiful. But it's not as beautiful as a 308 GTB.

    For modern I would probably say the 360, from every angle that car looks beautiful.

    In my opinion the F40 is the best looking Ferrari. On 2nd place the 360 CS.

    I agree. The 250 GT SWB to me is just the most beautiful car I've seen. It's perfect. Obviously it can get lost in the shadow of its younger brothers due to their race pedigree, rareness and extra cams, but looks alone to me is the 250 GT SWB Berlinetta. The muscular lines flowing from the door to the rear wheel arch...oh man.

    And I'm 23.

    1. 250 GT SWB Berlinetta

    2. Everything else

    I don't know, I can find some lumpy angles on the 360. Cross-eyed up front, with the ox-yoke bumper, and the wheels look a tad small in proportion.

    IMO, the older you go, the better they get, in general.
