    That exterior color combination looks so incredible, it's surreal. I would love to see that car in person. I'm astounded. That particular Sessanta belongs to our very own war.

    Anyone know this car's specific number of the 60 Sessantas...? I see that it's commemorative badge is 1989/paddle shifters; but which of the 60 is it...?

    I think it's interesting to note that the Sessanta has the "R" button for reverse, while both earlier 612s and the OTO went with the little T-handle. I wonder what the reasoning was?

    The T-lever is fragile. It breaks easily and is costly to repair/replace. I know why they would evolve to the R button - but I can't explain the step backwards on the OTO.

    Looks like a different car; perhaps NART and Bianco. The top is too light to be Grigio Alloy. Doesn't matter though, that car is beautiful, too!

    That is an odd car for ebay, however there have been other rare ferrari's on there also. Absolutely beautiful car, and of course very rare. I love the "quilted" stitching on the seats.

    $100 a pound.

    Fora 612 it is a interesting to look at. Lot more Italian style to it then your typical 612.

    Actually, it's not. It would be unusual for it to sell on ebay, but being advertised on ebay is quite common even for very unusual and important cars.

    the only reason i can think of its the 60 anny plaques that has to go there. I like the lever better than the button though.
    feels quality and im not likely to punch it hole in that button which sometimes i think i can.


    .......... as for that car on ebay, i buy that one easy if i lived there! its just so beautiful.

    I didn't think about the badge-- I bet you're right. I like the lever myself, as it's easier to find without looking.
