Pick A Single Styling Detail On Any Ferrari

The integrated rear spoiler on the CS.... love it

 

This.

The same idea is also evident, although much more subtle, in the Mondial and Boxer. Also seen in the Dino. Although the 308/328 is hands down the nicest example.

 

The curve of the rear wing. Reminds me of a rolling wave. I took this picture thought it was a pretty cool shot.

That is a really nice shot. It resembles the "barrel" from the interior of a wave...only yellow.

My personal favorite detail is a split decision. On one hand i adore the side vents on the 355, which is my dream-to-own car.

On the other hand, the lines and curves of the 1967 Ferrari 330 P4 are undeniable.

Nice but not a P4

 

The only car where i think every design choice was perfect. Flawless in execution. The 288 GTO.

Specifically, the way the muscular fenders create a perfect coke bottle effect.

This aggressiveness is sadly missing in todays Ferrari's

The car I spend all my time looking at is the one for which I pick out a styling cue. Of course it's on my Mondial. The second one is actually not body, but I frequently follow a 348, and I like the clutch hanging down there in the back, makes it seem more purposeful.

can't help myself

 

Another of the car and a local car that is too pretty not to post. How can you chose one styling element on a 512bb?

Lookin' good!

 

Pleeeeeeease, anybody, WHO STARTED THE 4 QUAD LIGHTS? (hmm, may have to start a dedicated thread just for this?)

Thakns, People

 

When I first saw the title of this thread I thought I'd put that in as my choice. You beat me to it!

This is a detail which, in slightly modified form, appeared on the 365 California, the 206, the 246, the 208, the 288GTO, the 308, the 328, and the F40. This is certainly my favorite detail. (And thanks for choosing a car that looks much like mine to illustrate the detail .)

The side "strakes" of the Testarossa and 348 are distinctive, but in my opinion, must come in at least second.

 

Hard to beat the set of 4, round, equal-sized, equal-spaced taillights to find something that says "classic Ferrari"

Side scoops are emblematic, as well --- as are the "flying buttresses" on the rear roof line of many models.

And, of course, my personal favorite ---- that wonderful, gated, shift plate which has always kept me away from owning any F1 equipped Ferrari !

 

Yes, a lovely feature. I wish my 308 had it. (And an engine top pretty enough to put into a showcase!)

 

No argument here.

Oh, and there's that distinctive "scoop" I was talking about.

 

Actually it is, 1967 330 P4 chassis #0858

 

I really like the window over the engine on the F40, F360, F430...

I would go for the front "city" lights of the 355. Not the pop-up headlights.

It has something very s*xy

 

+1

 

I had complete confidence...lol

 

The SHARKLIKE appearance of the 275GTB. Were I limited to only one car, THIS would be it. No question.

Refer to the treads on the subject when it was up for auction at Maranello. It's pedigree is not universally accepted. It was converted into a 350 CanAm by the factory and remains in that incarnation.

 

Correct.

It's Motor, chassis, and body are 350 Can Am not 330 P4.

Ferrari recognizes it as a 350 Can Am not a 330 P4.

There is only one 330 P4 existent. 0856

 

Thanks for the confirmation.

(a bit of a Marshall McLuhan moment )
