Club guy in NZ just told me gt4 rarer on production numbers than 246 Dino.

I did not believe him but Google says so.... 2800 odd Dino gt4's vs 3500 ish 246 Dino's

That blows me away. I have a 930 and thought its rare and just googled it and 18000! so as the title says holy ****. The GT4's out there are rare. Probably rarer too as so many races or parted as seen as sub car in 90's.
Every dog has its day. Kind of cool.

 

You may be right,- but fashion is a strange thing. I own an old Toyota FJ40 and for twenty years no one even saw it when I drove unless a smirk at the older guy in the crappy truck, and now every two blocks waved?, moved at gas stations and even full blow waves on the open road from open oncoming cars. Point being fashion is fickle like the odd looking 17 year old in class who became a literal supermodel.

also the Lamborghini / design connection is odd / interesting and the GT4 seems to benefiting from ever growing social media coverage and this attracts a younger audience. One video had it sitting with 70's Lambos.. It seems odd / somewhat surprising to me as a Porsche guy to now see Magnus Walker extolling virtues and he has huge followings. Then apparently he buys one...

 

I was thinking about your post and agree re art world prices and passing of artists. I looked up Gandini's fabulous designs, what a futuristic thinker - but then it hit me.
Stratos!. Look at it and then the gt4. Side on it is striking. Anyway I sold my gt4 7 years ago so stupid me, but I'm thinking time may prove me very silly, and that supply and demand l the lineage will lift it from the realm of quoted taste. A stratos sold for close to a million dollars. 246's are nearly there. Who's the dummy. lol.

Of the cars you keenly eyed whilst at medical school, I wonder if at this date the GT4 is the under appreciated car value wise if the group? I'll wager my morning coffee here I'm enjoying, ten years from now with the passage of time, scarcity, the Ferrari's Lamborghini

I'll wager my morning coffee here I'm enjoying, ten years from now with the passage of time, scarcity, being the only Ferrari Lamborghini will no longer be seen as an outcast, but a rare example of a collaboration of firsts for Ferrari. I also agree with a previous poster that the Ferrari film will highlight the deep place Enzo's son had in the overall story of the brand. It was good the cars helped motivate you at medical school also. Great story.

 

Yea i remember when I had the GT4, I had slightly old hard tyres and I could power slide in second gear ( when I was young and silly) and I was amazed I could have it totally spinning up in a controlled drift that I was basically controlling with the throttle feathering and adding to keep the drift. A very light hand was all that was needed along with the throttle to do this. I have a photo somewhere I'll try to find. A. Stunningly balanced car. The 930 won't do that. Well it will 1/4 of a second before it tries to kill me.

 

Yes here she is. Jan 1980, and sold new special paint colour to London UK in 1980.
