    You can have one Ferrari and only one. The vehicle is free and all maintenance / service is free forever. You can never sell it and you can never own another Ferrari. Just this one. What do you choose?

    Mine would have to be the F50. One of my fondest memories as a young kid is hearing one scream by when I lived in Japan. The sound of the V12 and the way it looked is something that I will never forget.

    I’d get another 3302+2.

    4 liter Columbo engine with space for the family.

    That or a LHD Testa Rossa.

    As an investment, I agree with most replies.

    IMVHO, the problem is those old cars all handle like a moving truck by today’s standards, so I’ll stick with the Speciale Aperta.

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.

    The color looks so turquoise in that picture, sir!

    I'm very happy with the Ferrari we have, not a better looking color combo out there. BUT if someone else is paying the bills, I think it's V12 bigger brother might not be a bad thing. [emoji2]

    (Though I’ll reserve final judgment to when I see/hear the 812 GTS in person; V12 convertible is magic).

    Actually, I take it back. I don't doubt you could get that car Tom.

    As for me, I guess I would like a La Ferrari.

    Dear Tom,

    The color of the car is almost magic and seems to change a lot depending on the light, time of day, clouds, cameras, etc. Please see the following for some comparisons.

    Best regards,

    Robert

    Bring your Speciale Aperta and the 288 GTO on modern tires will show you who is driving a truck LOL.

    I remember your car from a couple years ago at Elkhart Lake. Thanks for bringing it there. We were playing gold and saw you doing a couple laps of the "old course" I like to make a few trips around that myself every year.
