360 CS or 16M ?

I’ve already answered this question. There is nowhere that shows how many of a car have been totaled. Read the CS market thread from the beginning, see how many CS are for sale and draw your own conclusions.

The CS wasn’t considered collectible or special edition when Ferrari released it to market. Everyone took them to the track, wrecked them Etc. it wasn’t until Ferrari unexpectedly quit building them due to lack of interest that everyone wanted one. CS wasn't a limited edition car until it was.

 

I love the 16M, but as far as production numbers I think there is a debate on that actual number of 16M’s produced. I could be wrong though.

 

Yes but it isn't like 499 or 10,000. It is more like 499 or 530 so any way you cut it, a rare car.

 

Kind of doubt it, one being a coupe and the other being a convertible. Kind of like the difference between a Daytona coupe and spider, except there the spider was even rarer at ~10% of production.

I’m on my third different CS and have had two scuds (though coupes, not 16M’s). The performance advantage of the Scuds platform cannot be ignored but for me, It’s the looks of the Stradale that win me over. I learned that I need to listen to my heart over my mind. Mind says Scud, heart says CS.

Consider this though, all of the “road going racers”, ie....GT3RS, Scud, Speciale, Pista, Performante, LT series cars are all road cars that started out as such. The CS chassis were off of the Challenge race car assembly line. Lights and hvac were added, some with power windows, and some with radios. They were race cars made road legal. IMO the only car that comes any closer to race car for the road is the latest Ford GT.
