250

I would have selected Lusso but voted for SWB of those offered. To me the car has perfect proportions.

 

Absolutely!! Had one. Marvelous.

 

I struggle.. the LM, from certain angles...easy. But from a couple, meh.

The LM Stradale, however....perfection.

250P

 

Very difficult to choose...
But for me, the 250 GT California Spyder Passo Corto, carened light, particulary 2561GT, wich is for me one of the most beautiful car ever!
GTOs, Berlinetta Passo Corto, Lusso, TdF, MM ,P, LM, P5 ( ), TR... are also beautiful, almost perfection!

 

I cast my definitive vote years ago but, really, it's like choosing between Sophia, Gina and Virna!

 

Or between McCartney, Lennon, Harrison as best songwriter
Very very difficult, but for me 2561GT is a little above others.
This cars are very different, that's the difficulty!

 

Based on looks alone, right?

250 GTO
250 TR
250 TDF
California Spyder
250 LM
250 SWB

 

Difficult to choose between the 250GTO (1963 car) and the 250 LM coupe

 

SWB berlinetta. Just the perfect car! Drive to the race from home, race, win, come back home in full comfort, clean it, and celebrare with your wife driving it to the opera!!!!

 

I voted for the California Spyder. I'd put the Lusso a close second.

 

Unfortunately, there were 4 different kinds of Cal Spyders, some of which aren't as pretty (to my eyes) as the other choices.

If it's a SWB covered headlight model, it's a WIN. A LWB or SWB open headlight would take a backseat to the TR, GTO and LM, IMO.

 

Europa, Boano, Elena, TdF, PF Coupé, Cab SI, Cab SII, MM, 2+2 are missing! And of course the Californias come in four versions.

Personally, Number 1 would be a covered headlights California LWB.

 

Definitely the SWB California. Here are photos of my "affordable" dream car that I was lucky enough to acquire a while back. Chassis and engine by Ferrari (365GT2+2), body by Allegretti in aluminum.
Have enjoyed this little hot rod, but getting ready to sell to buy a bigger boat for the family (3 kids and lots of friends).

What a great thread! All of them are incredible, but I still would go for the GTO.

 

Do I still need to give you a break????????

 

+1

Lusso my favorite as well

 

Four? I devide LWB production into 5 different variations alone and then we have open/closed headlights on top of that. For me the SWB is like a 5 ft. blonde - a compromise in looks in favor of driving characteristics. Best wishes, Kare

 

I have no problem with that............

 

I am a US F-Chat memeber trying to learn as much as I can about 250 Boano / Ellena 's.....

This thread comes up....

Please add pics or info in the vintage section if you can...

 

For me:
1st - 250 SWB, the perfect Granturismo
2nd - 250 GTO, wonderful, but too extreme
3rd - 250 TdF, for the vintage style
4th - 250 LM, in the middle...
5th - 250 California Spyder, I prefer covered cars
6th - 250 TR, I really don't like it...

While it was a tough choice, I picked the SWB. I've been aching after one for a long time, and should hard work pay off for me one day, it'll be my 250 of choice (although I'd gladly park any of them in my garage).

 

Difficult choice.
I have had the privilige to race the GTO (2 different cars), SWB (6 different cars) and 250LM.
The most impressive to race is certainly the 250 LM but the most beautifull is still the SWB.
The silver car is 2069GT and the dark red SWB is 2445GT (Goodwood 2010)

Is not the badge on the fender from the Mas du Clos?
Has PB sold this car "recently" to a new owner in switzerland?
It is the best of the three '64s, IMHO...history wise-no?
