The Ferrarimania thread

For no particular reason I really like the Ferrari P4/5. I especially like the back of this car. It looks badass







It also had a Competizione version:

That's my favorite of the contemporary ones. I find it quite rare that a sportscar offers beautiful, clear-cut aesthetics, while actually featuring decent aerodynamics as well. (better than the Enzo that it's based upon.)

Can somebody provide information as to why Ferrari distinctly distanced themselves from the P 4/5 Competitizione, and refused to sell parts for it, even after Luca di Montezemolo had been so positive about officially naming the original one/off build a "Ferrari" ("Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina") a few years before?
Was it to protect their own cars from competition on track, or is there some other background to it?

I really like the 456 - and at the moment it's probably the most affordable Ferrari 12 cylinder you can buy (not keep, of course).

Found this recently... it's based on the 328GTS and developed by a german guy.

Technically still a concept, but Ferrari did confirm 6 of these will be produced: Ferrari Pininfarina Sergio

Aha! So that's the Ferrari I saw in the Knightsbridge dealership that got me completely clueless last month... Even more badass than the Bugatti Veyron I'd seen an hour before.

it looks like a modern interpretation of the Mythos, which is a good thing.

some more amazing Ferrari concepts, i think this is the most beautifull style Ferrari did at the very end of their designer language which changed completely shortly afterwards [ i like the current ferrari's, but they're so different ]

Ferrari Rossa



and perhaps the most beautifull

Ferrari GG50 [by guigiaro]





that rear is gorgeous, could have done with just a slight 'spoiler lip' smoothed out with the top of the trunk and fenders at the back, in essence extending the lines and curves of the car [ imho, the trunk or back looks a bit 'chopped' or 'pushed' ]

[Manoah2u]

oh and before i forget;

there's something strikingly beautifull about a yellow F40

Yes james had Pinifarina design his Ferrari Enzo a new Chassis that was inspired by his P3/4

Not style wise, look at Enzo´s trousers, they almost reach his underarm
