@Loctus49, the 360 is great, but leaves alot to be desired in the looks and HP dept. Although the blue on tan interior 360 convertibles are absolutely stunning. And far more car than needed for any legal roadway.

I love the La Ferrari, but my favorite all-time Ferrari is the Daytona convertible in red, like the one in A Star Is Born.

Write in Carrera GT?? Just kidding, I've always loved the F50 and Enzo. I think the Enzo because of being a late teenager really into cars when it was released.

Having seen all but the 288GTO up close and personal, it's the F50, no question. Last manual, last F1-derived V12, a shape that has aged incredibly well, and oh what a sound she makes!

LaFerrari is probably the best looking exotic car ever made but the F40 was the first real Ferrari super car so I have to choose the F40

I can't recall the model of this one, but my friend had it for the weekend and brought it by (I had to fix something on his laptop). We took it out for a ride to grab dinner, definitely enjoyed the ride!

Edit: I think it's a f458?

360, the sideviews are the giveaway versus 430.

Oops, my error. Reminds me of the 360. Thanks below post for correction.

F40. When I was in training, one of the anesthesiologists had one. He also had the hottest CRNA girlfriend, who was probably 1/2 his age.

I'm not a big fan of super racing sport cars but I have nice memories of my childhood dreaming with the GTO. Is a beautiful car!!!

F40, but if we're talking modern "obtainium", F355 Berlinetta 6 speed.

I voted for the 288. But my real favorite is the 512BB.

Favourite "modern classic" Ferrari

Superfast

But something I can actually see myself realistically owning and driving? F8

The 288 GTO is a close but very different relative.

Too bad the 308 GTS isn't listed. I know it's not modern but it's still my favorite.

F40 barely edges out the 288gto in my book. An evolution of the 288 - taking the approach to the extreme.

For more recent modern cars the 458…

None of the above...275 GTB SWB for me. Perfection. With unlimited money a 250TR would be by top choice. Albeit, I suppose neither qualify as modern, I miss the old analog Ferrari's I can't afford, I owned a 488 and while it was a great car, it was so underwhelming.



Gun to my head and have to pick one of the 5, would be the F50 which was my childhood poster car and I remember a straightpipe youtube video I watched 1000x, that f50 below still gives me chills today.
