Maintenance and the brakes weren't so great.

I've heard about the transaxle but the 5 TR owners I know personally have never had any issues after a decade or more of driving.

20k range was a prediction from 10 yrs ago..still staying strong in the $50k range for a decent one.

512BBi was ok...carbed versions much better.

All great cars...splitting hairs here.

The first TRs had crappy brakes, dumb automatic seatbelts, a transaxle that was only good for 50k miles, and made maintenance of a Cessna seem reasonable.  $39.5k is still too much for this one, I bet tired ones will be in the 20's before too long.

Now, a 512BBi, different story...

Agreed.

550/575 is interesting but ultimately boring to drive. The TR series was exciting visually and from the driver's seat.

They haven't been replaced.

Still want to see a mid engined 12 cylinder F that competes with the standard Lambo V12 that isnt a limited edition Hyper car.

Just saw the video
Just what some rich asshole needs a switch in the cockpit to disable all the stability devices of the car so they can slide it
WONDERFUL
Isn't that a good thing? The problem is certain people have bad judgment but you cannot realistically protect every person from themselves.
 
I propose that the driver aids lend a sense of false confidence/security and you end up with worse accidents and more stupid behavior than before. Like football in the leather helmet days....there was no helmet to helmet missile concussions then like there are now.
 
 
Where is the James Bond ejection seat so he can leave the car after he jacks it up?
This would be a kin to me disabling the auto pilot on a cat 3 approach
The car was designed by an Italian special needs kid
 
 
Huh? 
 
 
My guess Ferrari eats this one large
Too much magic not enough car
Going green is great but this is over the top and for what?
 
Keeping up with the P1 and 918. It is what it is -- Ferrari has to market to people who buy on specs and "technology". 
 
I'd do anything to see a modern F40, but I know that will never happen.
The F50 was a flop and so was the ENZO,599 and the FF shit box and let us not forget the 4 seat boat anchor
 
F50 I've heard good things. Problem is the car is a ton of money for not a ridiculous amount of power, but driving feel is supposed to be outstanding .
 
Agree with Enzo. 599 too except the GTO. The rest of the lineup isn't destined to be legendary Ferraris but that's ok I guess. 
 
Still waiting for a true TR replacement after all these years. 550 ain't it. 
 
An interesting thing has happened since the 360 came out -- superior technical ferraris with less inspired "souls". The Gallardo came out and Ferrari could no longer sell 200 hp entry level cars any longer. Engines really
