    I searched and could not find a thread with white Ferraris only. I have a Bianco Italia 458 Italia on order and would love to see other people's white Ferraris!

    He sure was lucky to have jumped that big ditch out into the marsh.

    As you can see this body has no problem with White. Amazing how a color can change from design to design. One of the great debates in the Art world,i.e. Matisse and those of his time were discussing if color or line was most important. After thinking on this for a couple of decades. I still don't have a for sure answer. I am pretty sure the owner said this was a one off 250.

    The 458 is the one you see on the back of the flatbed truck, it was tuned by underground performance, twin turbo. Then later that night it ran off a private airstrip while doing 3 digits and jumped into the marsh.
    Then the Dino with a different color interior, that may help it some.

    The funny thing is , I don't like white cars by Ferrari, but we did own a white 308 GT4.
    If someone gave me this one, I would take it.

    Now this photo was one I took at Road Atlanta back in about 1976, when these were almost $40,000 . Boy, that was a ton of money back then. We turned one down in 1974 at $21,000.

    Notice the Daytona is not white, like the one on TV. Enzo said a XKE is the most beautiful car ever built, but "Give me a Dino in Fly Yellow any day".

    Love the pics everyone. Yes I feel white is color that looks beautiful on some cars but bland on others. I find the 458 carries white very well. I think white on the 458 is one of the best colors on that car. Of course I am biased because I ordered mine in white but it is still my opinion.

    I certainly agree on the 458 in White, looks stunning.

    IMHO, dark colours, (for example black, blue, burgundy) confer a reserved, stately, and dignified presence well suited to the styling of the 250 GT/E. However, white also serves the car well and perhaps allows it to appear more informal and 'relaxed'.
