Thanks, but don't go robbing banks on my account.

I too prefer the F-40 over the enzo. But I like the classics like the Dino, the DinoII, the Lusso, the ZAgato, and the 250 GT.

Hell no that ain't wierd. Nuts to the new computer generated cars. You know me, Chris, I'm all about the classics.

For me it kinda comes down to what you want to do with them, A Miura is an awesome piece of artwork, but the pre-SV models had the engine and tranny sharing the oil, so if I had one, I'd be hesitent to drive it much.

On the other hand if I could afford one of those I'd probably lean towards the Maranello or Modena, as you can actually drive these newer cars for thousands of miles without worrying too much about catastrophic failures of irreplaceable parts.

For the sake of just "looking at" its hard to beat the Miura- the headlights are a bit goofy but every other line on the rest of that car is pure sexy.

But even in those fields filled with Ferraris and other total dream cars, that red McLaren F-1 still holds the top spot in my book.

Is the Lusso's hood popped for aerodynamics or cooling? I didn't think those old cars did that fast and furious stuff
