    Thanks.
    I absolutely love that green 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Scaglietti, the blue Boxer and the Ghia-Aigle bodied 195 (besides the F40, of course).

    "Only a few F40s can claim to be an absolute part of the F40 story... and this is one of those, having been the property of Cesare Bagni from new until 2018. A rare sale direct from the factory, this ‘Non-Cat’ example was supplied new to its first owner, Cesare Bagni, in April 1990.

    Bagni and his business T.I.R. (Trasformazione Italiana Resine) was established in 1968. After his military service, he started building fibreglass dodgems for amusement parks in a borrowed workshop then working his way up, he produced a fully fibreglass concept car for Fiat.

    Enzo Ferrari contacted Bagni after seeing news of this car in the local media, and proposed a collaboration between T.I.R. and Ferrari. Enzo’s eternal pursuit of speed and weight reduction saw him in desperate need of innovative, lighter materials that retained rigidity. Competition was fierce in Formula 1 with countless big names battling for the podium. In the small regional town of Calerno, Bagni’s close knit workshop would soon be providing body work for the top drivers’ cars in the golden era of Formula 1; Niki Lauda, Clay Regazzoni, Gilles Villeneuve to name but a few.

    A quiet and humble man, Bagni would always shy away from the media. When journalists approached him, he would pretend to be a normal worker and explain the owner was out of town for a few days. Described by Enzo Ferrari himself as a ‘hard-worker’, there were no holidays or Sundays. Instead he would work tirelessly, rewarded with great satisfaction and recognition from his peers. The majority of those who worked for him started young and remained by his side even beyond their retirement age.

    After his successes in Formula 1, with evolving technology he would go on to create the composite bodies for the finest models from the Ferrari marque. Bagni would develop the bodywork for the likes of the extremely special one-off 712 Can-Am, created from a modified 512M and featuring the highest capacity engine built by Ferrari, a 6.9 litre V12 producing upwards of 670hp in a car that weighed just 800kg wet!

    He would go on to produce body panels for the top-of-the-range 288 GTO, F40, and finally the F50 including a multitude of cars in between. @ DK Engineering"

    Are the yellow and white cars (bottom L&R of screen) Pistas? I thought they were only produced in a couple of colors (primarily red).

    You can order your Pista and Pista Spider in any color on and off the catalog. I think the Pista Politi is the one that only came in Red, Blue, Silver or Black.

    Hm, I've gotta plead ignorance as I had never heard of the Politi version.

    Either way, and it's gotta be the angle in the pic but they look gloriously wide and supercar-like. Makes me want to own one, for sure.
