    - Make your choice

    - Why your choice?

    - Describe how you would spec the car.

    - Enzo

    - Such and expression of aggression. So original and a classic departure from the norm (in a good way). Elegant but brutal. An amazing tribute to the founder with Schumacher DNA embedded within it. The doors were a new expression for Ferrari. The stock sound “barks” at ignition like nothing I’ve ever heard. The damn thing is just incredible.

    - Rosso Corsa, black interior, red tach.

    If limited to the 10-year cars. Black Enzo. Limo tint. Remove the shields. Enough modern tech for me to enjoy driving with a bit of aggression, but not so not too much.

    If super car = limited edition, then 599 SA Aperta.

    At any given time my favorite will change, but lately the Enzo seems to personify the ultimate to me.

    Sometimes, when I see the Enzo it looks like two cars glued together rather than a single flowing form, as seen in a 288 GTO.

    Enzo. Close call with the F50 though. Both are well beyond the rest IMO. No attraction to hybrids. F50 is mind blowing when you lift the engine cover and it has the manual but the cockpit is very bland. It is still a very wonderful site - really an experience. But the Enzo is so unusual and a mint condition example will not escape your memory.

    The latest and greatest of course. The LF coupe. 9250 RPM cut off, 800 HP from the V12, another 163 from the electric motor, sound out of this planet and looks that petrify you!!! Until the next one ups the ante once again.

    A La Ferrari Aperta simply because it is worth the most and fewer were made.

    Rossa Corsa with Argento Nurburgring dream lines.

    It's a bit unfair though that the LF has to split its votes between the coupe and the open-top. Combined they lead this vote.

    I've actually found that most people have a preference between the two. I love both of them (actually I love every supercar) but I prefer the LaFerrari coupe over the Aperta. But, if you prefer, think of their numbers as one.

    While I know it doesn't fit the category, I would add Speciale. What a great machine ;)

    The poll results surprise me so far. I would have actually guessed the F40 would have been far in the lead.

    The Aperta is basically the same car.

    F40 for sure. I’ve been around the track in an F40 & an Enzo. The F40 is a much more visceral car! You can only go so fast on the street, so you might as well have something that’s extremely fun going from 0-100mph.
    I’ve done 150mph in an F12 & it was so subdued that I didn’t even realize I was going that fast until I looked at the speedometer.

    F40.

    "spec"??? It's an F40. No need for "spec".

    Not wise to compare the F12 with the hypers. Different group but I get your point. It will, however, be much faster than all of them - track or timed straight line - save the LaF. This fact amazes me as it seems the hypers are so lite and purpose built with exotic body panels, chassis and suspension. Must be the more modern engine and drivetrain is so much more capable especially pushing that much more weight.

    I thought I couldn't decide between F40 and LaFerrari, but ultimately I could never forgive myself if I didn't choose the F40. I've been many, many years drooling over that shape and mechanics, along with the driving reviews.

    Indeed, "what spec", LOL, it's probably the only Ferrari I would have in rosso corsa, even if I like some of the repaints out there.

    Yep, LaFerrari close and solid second place.
