I'd absolutely take the F40 if I am choosing an investment or if I am trying to win a race, but if I am just choosing a car to drive on city streets and highways (and if resale values aren't an issue), I'd prefer to have a Testarossa. Maybe I've become a middle aged fuddy duddy, but to me, a comfortable and gorgeous Pinin penned GT sounds like a dream come true.

Thank you, really appreciate it 🙏

Really? That’s very interesting, we definitely need to look into that 👍

@@quattrocam The 'Show or Display' rule (the SoD) is because of lobbying that began when Bill Gates and his fellow Microsoft founder Paul Allen bought a pair of brand new 959s that were both confiscated and held prisoner in impound for over a decade. The only legal alternative to this limbo was mandatory destruction of the cars as illegal contraband. However, unlike the SoD rule, the 25-year rule to exempt historical cars was written into the original bill that became the IVSCA (ie, the Imported Vehicle Safety Compliance Act of 1988). It wouldn't have made sense to prohibit Americans from buying prewar collector's cars because they hadn't been crash-tested. It's important to remember what the intent was behind getting the law passed. The IVSCA was not a popular law and was itself the result of special interest lobbying. American dealers who were authorized to sell European sportscars that had been factory built to U.S. spec were losing business. In the 1980s you could save around $10k if you imported a Euro-spec car via the gray market and privately converted the car yourself (aka 'federalized' it) to make it street legal. That'd be a savings of nearly $30k in today's money. The IVSCA was mainly intended protect the profits of U.S. Mercedes dealerships. The very first use of the SoD import exception was an XJ220 bought in 1999 by a friend of a friend who lives in my hometown. He's also got an XKSS.

Thank you & it did 😁 the last Ferrari to have one, it came from the Daytona’s V12 but had the 180 degree banks like you said, it was a lot of fun to make, easy to see why the Testarossa and Countach are held in such high regard, trail blazers 🚀

Yep, correct.

he literally said that in the video... plus its tecinically a 180 degreeV12

@@joshuawrighton-briggs7120 Yeah that's what being a Flat V12 means

@@luminalfever7678 thx it’s my first car and it took me forever to save up for

Thanks for your feedback, for clarity: Engine capacity differed between markets. American customers received the larger SOHC Astron G54B 2.6 L engine. Most markets received the SOHC 2.0 L Sirius G63B (4G series) engine (Wikipedia) Coop is a US term. There are two common pronunciations in English: /kuːˈpeɪ/ (koo-PAY) - the anglicized version of the French pronunciation of coupé. /kuːp/ (KOOP) - as a spelling pronunciation when the word is written without an accent.[6][7] This is the usual pronunciation and spelling in the United States,[8] with the pronunciation entering American vernacular no later than 1936[9] and featuring in the Beach Boys' hit 1963 song "Little Deuce Coupe". (Wikipedia) Being English we use the original French meaning and English pronunciation for our global audience, with Coop being an American only saying.

Blow me! He was killed!
