    One of the Ferrari Challenge cars a few years back at the Grand Prix in Canada ->

    The flat black, West Coast Chopper 360 that Jesse James was driving! That was definitely different from the "mainstream".

    Uhhhh, speechless....ummm, like it? No, maybe, not sure...is that real? Does it come with leather chaps and a little hat?
    Wheels=paint treatment me thinks...

    Just look at rubystone red Porsches (Pink) and their bubblegum blue...crazy Germans is right. I do however like the flat green 456 Pilota Panzervagen...makes me want to polish my boots and salute towards Maranello.

    That is the factory original color of my car. I changed it to Rossa Red when I first bought it, now I am going to change it to Fly Yellow or something close to it.

    Ok, this picture is just plain gay. I cannot believe that this car was painted like this. I hope its a photoshop crop. I picked it up from another forum, so I don't know this history on this car or photo.

    I am not convinced about the photshop. I thought it was at first, but look at all the shadows in the paint and all the lines have shadows as well. I think maybe the TR is really pink and maybe they added the graphics in photshop. Not sure though.

    I've got a copy of an old Magnum P.I. episode,where Robin Masters Nephew comes to town,and wants to be like Magnum. He's driving a very Light Green Metallic 308. Looks to be from the Factory. And,I'm not into green cars at all. But,this actually doesn't look too bad. Not "Sporty" by all means,but,Clean,Classic.....

    I've also seen both a Mondial Coupe and a Cabriolet in Prugna,(Kind of a Brownish/Purple) with Crema Interiors. I think that they looked pretty good with that Body Style. Anyone know if there were any other Ferrari Models from that time,(Early-Mid Eighties) in that Color?

    The blue 308 is from London, and the old green classic 275 GTB is from 9 years ago in San Marino. Those are probably 2 the weirdest colors I have seen, besides and turkise(Or what the hell that color is called in English.. there aren't many of them around, so you guys probably know which car I am talking about :) ) anniversary Murcielago in London.

    I still say it's fake.
    The one you posted is a different one (look at the liscense plate)

    If you look at the edges of the 8valve posted, they are yellow... obviously whoever made it didn't select the edges clearly enough, or when it is next to the other yellow ferrari, didn't want to accidentaly make some of that one blue.

    Either it is a bad photoshop or a terrible repaintjob.
    I win.

    I think the "yellow" on the TR might just be a reflection of the car next to it, no?

    And as for the different number plate: in Germany, when a car changes hands, does the plate stay with the car, or the owner?

    Nope. You lose. I took those pics myself, and I can send you the high resolution version that still contains all the metadata (that always gets lost once you start tampering with or resizing pics). I'm hoping someone from the Euro section (any Germans out there that were at the same event? AVD Oldtimer GP Nurburgring 2004) can back me up on this one. Trust me, that is the colour of that TR.

    Actually, the script on the back of that TR says something about the colour. In Fan512BBi's picture you can read COLORE, and the last word is ESMERALDA with two words I can't read in between. And I don't remember anymore either. Anyone?

    That's the famous MCM Ferrari 512 TR.
    I know the car from it's first registration in Munich. (owner: Michael Cromer).
    You can find it by a search on FChat. But I fear all the pics are lost due to the disc crash :-(

    LOL.

    That yellow was the reflection of the car next to it. If it didn't have a yellow car sitting next to it, you might have a case there.
