    should not this forum's section title be updated? these models are approaching 10+ yrs old but probably to new to be considered classics. what say you?

    Let's split the 550/575/456/612/599 into "Old Men's Cars" ;)

    I think they're still modern enough to be left in this section. Perhaps when 599s start being delivered it might be time to move the Maranellos, but for now I think they should remain here. And even though the 355 hasn't been produced for several years, I still consider it to be modern, or at least somewhat modern.

    The F430 is an evolution of the 360, just as the 575 is of the 550 (kinda). I think the forum is cool the way it is.

    ^^ yeah, but I'd argue the 355 is an evolution of the 348. (The "brothers" would say it's an evil-oution).


    Leave the categories where they are. One day Rob will add a "post modern", and a "post post modern", and maybe if we're lucky, a "neo post modern".

    Huh?

    How about 599 / 612 into a new ferrari category - "ugly". The 355 isn't to long in the tooth at all. She has the best behind of most all Fcars.

    I know "ugly" was to strong a word...like Harley owners ...they are all pretty.
    yea ... right, with beer goggles.

    A suggestion to split models as Today-Recent-Yesteday and Legends and Classics as the Ferrari site did. And there can be branches of each topic as v8 v12 or etc
