Not sure how they arrived at their top 10, but there it is.

F355 2nd? Is it that good?

[Alucidnation]

Probably paid by the manufacturer for the article..

I love the 288GTO, just for the looks alone. It's the best instance of that overall shape they had going from the 328 to 355 - something about the chin spoiler and the extra headlights down there just makes it look so mean and purposeful

Take out the F12 and 488, replace with 288 GTO and 599 imo.

Good list though, nice to see the 125 getting some love.

Im thinking similar, but I would take out the 488 and 355 and replace with 550 and F430 Scuderia.

250 TdF for me.

Just STUNNING.

(288 comes a VERY close second)

[Tuvra]

Amazed the Enzo hasn't made it on there TBH.

[K50 DEL]

Top 3 is the order I would have put them in, I would have put the F50 in 4th and the 458 Speciale in 5th... suppose I ought to put the 360 in there somewhere so we'll have that 6th!

I'd say the 355 needs to be included really - it was the car that totally transformed mid-engined Ferraris in the mid-90s from the poorly-received 348 (rightly or wrongly) and refreshed the styling and dropping in that rather special 5-valve engine.

[Tuvra]

For me the only really questionable ones are the 488, Dino & F12.

Tough question what to replace them with but for me but the Enzo (as mentioned), 360CS, 430 Scud, 550 & Testarossa would all be in with a shout.

[parabolica]

My two favourites - 456 GT and the 330 GTC aren't there, but then they aren't the most sporting of Ferrari's offerings, so I'm not surprised.

[Nedzilla]

Pointless article really as it's always going to be subjective. There's no right or wrong. It should've been called Auto Epress -top 10 favourite Ferrari's.

Thanks for posting that vid- I'd forgotten all about it. P4 Gets my vote every time. Still looks like a UFO after all these years, so god knows what it must have been like in the 60s when it was first unveiled. That noise is pure filth.

Old man had a 456 which I drove a lot. Great looking, amazing engine but not that great to drive if I'm honest. His was a GTA (as most were). Great GT car but not what I would call a drivers car.

Leaving out the 288 GTO makes the list a joke.

Absolute joke.

288 and Enzo should be right up there! Glad to see the 355 getting recognition.., but second place??
