"Bigger custom made Giovanna (as seen on Pimp My Ride and Rides on TV, they are in the USA) 'Ferrari' copy alloys, resprayed from yellow to pastel turquoise, passengers door and un-used hood welded up and smoothed, seams filled+smoothed, decals removed and improved turbo. It wasn't lowered as it's low enough. Electric windows added. Central locking added and Intelistart (Clifford Alarm). This is a one off of a one in 349 car."

"My New Car!! I Wish!!"

Ferrari S.p.A. is an Italian sports car manufacturer based in Maranello, Italy. Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1928 as Scuderia Ferrari, the company sponsored drivers and manufactured race cars before moving into production of street-legal vehicles in 1947 as Ferrari S.p.A.. Throughout its history, the company has been noted for its continued participation in racing, especially in Formula One, where it has enjoyed great success.
This is a 360...
The Ferrari 360 is a mid-engine two-seater sports car produced from late 1999 until 2005. The 360 replaced the Ferrari F355 and was itself replaced by the fairly similar Ferrari F430. For the 360, Ferrari partnered with Alcoa to produce an entirely new all-aluminum space-frame chassis that was 40% stiffer than the 355, yet 28% lighter despite a 10% increase in overall dimensions. Along with the new frame was a new Pininfarina body styling that broke ranks with the last decade's sharp angles and flip-up headlights, replacing them with a rounded appearance that harkened to the 1960s. The new V8 engine, common to all versions, was only slightly larger and more powerful than the 355's at 3.6 litres and 300 kW (400 bhp) of power, but the lighter frame and added stiffness improved performance; the 0 to 100 km/h acceleration performance improved from 4.6 to 4.4 seconds, and in the Challenge versions it was as low as 4.0 s. An engine replacement resulted in the current V8 road model, the F430 (internally referred to as the evoluzione or evo) which came out in 2004.

Ferrari F355 Targa top.

The Ferrari F355 is another personal favourite Ferrari of mine, because it is easily recognizable as a Ferrari but the lines and curves are simple and unpretentious, and it is one of the most friendly-looking Ferraris of the modern era. Also, this Ferrari has its own Sega arcade/Dreamcast game (also available on the PlayStation 2), Ferrari F355 Challenge: Passione Rossa, one of the more realistic driving games of the Dreamcast era in that the steering is quite difficult, but, when you get used to it, you really feel in control of the car.
This shot is composed of 8 different photos assembled in Autostitch... it's an Autostitched Auto, I guess.

A Ferrari Testarossa!

When I was a young teenager in the late 1980's, this was THE Ferrari and the only Ferrari that really mattered, thanks mostly to the Sega videogame Out Run, which featured the Testarossa. I still love the look of the car, which screams excitement, but, as an adult, I could never imagine owning one as the styling is just a little too bold and audacious for my personality. (Not that I can do anything other than imagine owning Ferraris at my current station in life.)

Ferrari 430 Scuderia
Serving as the successor onto the Challenge Stradale, the 430 Scuderia was unveiled by Michael Schumacher at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show. Aimed to compete with cars like the Porsche RS-models and the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, it is lighter (at 100 kg/220 lb) and more powerful (at 375.4 kW/503 bhp at 8500 rpm.) than the standard F430. Thus the weight-to-power ratio is reduced from 2.96 kg/hp to 2.5 kg/hp. In addition to the weight saving measures, the Scuderia semi-automatic transmission gains improved 'Superfast', known as 'Superfast2', software for faster 60 millisecond shift-times. A new traction control system combines the F1-Trac traction and stability control with the E-Diff electronic differential. The Ferrari 430 Scuderia does 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in less than 3.6 s, with a top speed of 199 miles per hour (320 km/h).
