    if it wasn't for the 308 we would be talking about an extinct car manufacturer :)

    FIAT took over the road cars in '69 so anything after that is a FIAT , it was either that or they became 'Fiords' and what a travesty that would have been :(

    Dino was attributed a lot of positives by Enzo but I wonder how much input Jano did that made him look good ?

    That doesn't make it any less sad when people put ENZO plates on 308's.

    I'd like to do some research into your logic patterns Rob, you clearly are channeling something extraordinary. :)

    This Ferrari stuff makes my head hurt.
    I get that a 553 F1 wasn't a road car but what about the sportscars after that?
    Can you say that the Monzas and Mondrials etc were pure racing cars never road cars?

    Monza's, Mondials, 121LM's, etc were sportscars built for the World Sportscar Championship. They were competition cars, usually later sold to privateers, who were often able to road register them because of the casual rules at that time.

    FYI factory competition Ferraris had even serial numbers, road cars odd numbers.

    I think in true Italian tradition that doesn't hold for ALL Ferraris, I have heard of road cars with even numbers but it was SUPPOSE to be how Enzo wanted it .....

    see my edit, GT4s were even numbered too .... I must be getting closer to a real ferrari , my chassis number is 45011 so at least it is odd, to match the driver :D
