    Look at this guy he thinks he's cool just because he's driving a multimillion dollar one-off Ferrari...

    who would be able to take out a "one off concept" for a ride?
    this guy must have strong connections.

    also I used to think concept cars were immobile or motionless ...
    this must be the rarest Ferrari of them all right?
    P.S. how many Rossa were produced?

    The guy behind the wheel looks like Luigi Ramiciotti, the Rossa project director. I am comparing the picture to the ones of him in the issue of Forza that they wrote about the Rossa. Only one was produced. Ken Okuyama (designer of the Enzo) and a small team designed the car. Pininfarina rumored that they were going to make a small run of the car, but it never happened. So that is the only one in existence. The car is built on a 550 chassis with 550 running gear, and it is fully operational.

    Best,
    Jeff

    CONGRATULATIONS to all members.

    Do you know when that was taken? Is that a 412 behind the Rossa?

    Could that also be an in-between model ?
    It looks like it are the frontlights of a 412 but the other things on the car looks to a 348 to me, especially the mirrors and the front-spoiler.

    Is the car behind the Rossa a spider? What about the "Scaglietti Spider" Prototype? Miura Jota, do you have more pictures or can you share the source? I wouldn't be surprised if those pictures were taken in Brescia, Italy, probably during the Mille Miglia. Any ideas?

    Gbrown,

    Someone mentioned earlier that this was a one-off. Why is one of the photos you posted showing a RHD model?

    As for your design critique, I would argue contrary to your position. I feel that detail creates an interesting relationship between the wheel and its cowling, as well as a brilliant study of negative space.

    But it looks like a barge board.

    Form follows function when you work in aero...

    i understand your view of the design, i just disagree. but to each his own right. as for the pictures, to be honest i have no idea- maybe the picture has been reversed thru paint like i did here. as for the autored thing at the top that could have also have been added in later.
