Any colour but red picture thread

[NeinFondue]

Hi All, not sure if a thread like this has existed before in the Ferrari V8 forum, but there is a popular non-black, non-grey thread in the Aston forum which is always a good place for pictures. As red seems to be the most popular colour choice (and for good reasons), I thought it would be interesting to get more pictures posted of alternative colours too.

I’m new to this part of PH as I’ve only recently become an owner of my first Ferrari, so please take it easy on me if having a non-red Ferrari is somewhat controversial, otherwise a big hello to everyone here and I look forward to meeting up with some of you at a future event.

Here’s a picture of my manual TDF Blue over Tan F355 GTS.

Cheating a bit as not V8.

Just a little, but I guess with the Ferrari section split up, it’s allowed? Anyway, nice 812 I’m now seriously thinking of having my callipers painted yellow

Very nice, beautiful even
I do love the 355s in all colours.. ..except green, just dont get it no matter what artistic the picture shot is trying to convince me

Thanks! The F355 has been my dream Ferrari, so it’s great to finally add it to the garage

Not that I have it anymore - sold about 6 weeks ago after 6.5 years of ownership :

That’s a shame. I remember your extensive thread on AM ownership and genuinely thought it would be the Vantage that went. I guess things changed

Looks stunning. I always liked Ferraris in blue. Second best colour after red imo

Was the other way round for me

Photo is of my Pozzi & Cuoio 458 Italia??

Silverstone Verde

Oh my god. That is absolutely stunning! Do you still have it?

BTW, your old V12VSR manual was a stunning spec too.. You certainly know how to choose them

There are some lovely colours and specs here Keep them coming.

Very kind of you to say. Yes, I have both. They are my long term keepers, very different, but both N/A, Manual, and carbon seats. 3 of my favourite characteristics in cars!

Pretty much the same with me. These two are my “keepers”. Manual F355 GTS, and manual V12 AMR Roadster also with carbon buckets.

Fantastic pair ! Mate of mine had a blue/tan 355 Spyder similar to your GTS back in the day....such a great colour combination.

Agree. Love Blue over Tan

Great thread. I don’t own this F355 GTS any more but thought I’d post it as was a rare colour - NART (North American Racing Team) blue, a special order for the UK MD of Ferrari at the time. More of a ‘kingfisher’ Blue than TdF, and more metallic, especially in bright sun. Ahh, happy days.

That is stunning! Although I am really biased

Some great colours and cars on here, so keep them coming.

Here’s a couple I took this week of my TDF Blue F355 GTS.

Hello @neinfondue no pics yet, but a big thank you for this thread. I too am an Aston owner (DB9) and am currently looking for a F430, the main criteria is that I don’t want a red one. This thread has been been very useful to see alternative colours! Is it just us Aston people, or is there an increasing trend for more non-red Ferraris?

Hi @mrpseudonym. Three Astons so far, one black, and two silver so I guess I would have (and very nearly) bought a red Ferrari. Bit out of character, but I absolutely love TDF Blue. Best of luck on your search.

Some absolutely beautiful examples posted on here, so keep them coming
