+1 on the 250 SWB. On an earlier topic: saying a Kia Van has better performance specs a 308 is like saying Rosie O'Donnell has bigger ta- tas than Carmen Electra

I'm with John. The 250GT SWB that Sir Stirling Moss drove for Rob Walker was my #1 until I saw that?midnight blue?multi million dollar 250GT Zagato with it's twin-bubble roof that was parked next to our rental Ferrari in the general parking lot just outside the front gate at Spa Francorchamps. It was just sitting there in the rain. Go figure. I posted a photo of it on the List a while back.

Yer pal, Ferrari Bubba

A little like having to choose among three supermodels who all are also
great people and fantastic in bed! Nevertheless, we must choose:


My choice is the 250GT SWB. Maybe because it was one of the first Ferraris
that I ever saw in real life or maybe because it embodies everything that a
sports car should be to make it go down the road fast but with nothing excess.


Then the 275 GTB and then the Daytona.

Sssshhhh! If I was ever offered my # 2 or #3 pick, I would never let them
know that they weren't #1! That would just be our little secret!

The latest FORZA has an article on a recently restored 275 GTB/4 in a very
refined and gorgeous dark blue (think of that dark blue 250 GTO...same
color).


The author compared the 275 to the SWB and the Daytona and made some
interesting notes. The SWB being the smallest was most nimble and best
balanced. The Daytona was the heaviest but most powerful. The 275 was a nice
mix of both...right in the middle in terms of power, and steering heaviness.



He considered the SWB and 275 to be cars that had good braking compared to
the 365.


In terms of looks, I think the 275 is nicer than the SWB, but not by much.
The fact that the Daytona is not in this league is reflected in its price I
think.


As far as sound, I've heard a Daytona....awesome. I heard an SWB in a video
and it sounded unlike any car I've ever heard in my life......sick. Never
heard a 275 but sure it's awesome.


Which of these 3 would you  want to have?

I think a 275 GTB/4 would be my  pick.
