    The rosso barchetta cars to me are the really truly special F50's.

    Personally, I find Barchetta and silver dull; black, special; corsa, beautiful; yellow (over black seats and black headlight base), breathless; yellow with yellow seats, forget it.

    Mugello w/a little less red? Red "Pozzi"? Suits a late Fiat/early Ferrari race car or maybe F50GT w/turtle on the dash ...?

    Rosso Corsa looks way better.

    So I hear! :)

    Years ago there was a silver F50 for sale in where else but Germany. Even there they couldn't find a buyer and that F50 was for sale there for ages...

    Alex Penfold got what I think is a very representative photo set of a Rosso Barchetta F50.

    Absolutely, gives a good impression of the Rosso Barchetta paint color. Thank you!

    This F50 was bought by an American buyer and has since re-sold to an FChatter. When the car was for sale in the US, differentiating the color from Rosso Corsa was the biggest hurdle - prospective buyers were hesitant to pay a premium for the rarity of Rosso Barchetta when it was difficult to discern a difference from Corsa in photos.

    Remember the 'set' that FoNE was selling for 6 Million Dollars? People complained because the GTO, F40 and F50 were all Rosso Corsa but the Enzo was Rosso Scuderia and that hurt the perceived value of the set.
