    Arguably the most beautiful car ever created. After completing the 1962 GTO for Ferrari Bizzarrini wanted to take the concept to the next level and this 5300 GT Strada was the outcome. It is much like the human body... When viewed as separate pieces it is not beautiful but when assembled, can be breathtaking. I love when Leno has a car on this program that he clearly pines for but doesn't own.

      @@aliceshaw8265 "Leftists and the EPA"? It was the Trump administration that recently wanted to force the EPA to approve a higher percentage of ethanol in gasoline... to reward farmers for being a reliable voting bloc for him. I live in a farm state, so I'm 100% aware that except for a very few high-pollution areas where some kind of oxygen-bearing additive is needed during the summer months, ethanol in gas is just a "welfare for farmers" program. I use it because our state's [Republican] government gives it a tax break, so it's usually about 20 cents per gallon cheaper than non-ethanol gas, but I don't have any illusion that it's anything but a subsidy. Still, if you're going to subsidize somebody, farmers are a good choice, because in the event of trade disruptions, it's hard to switch people's metabolisms to "alternative fuels"...

      @Dominick Hey! You’re right, if it’s in poor condition and needing a full restoration, they’re selling in the low $20,000’s. But ones in excellent condition have sold for $330,000! Good condition specimens are selling in the high $70,000’s. There have been 88 go up for sale in recent years bear these figures out. The one I test drove in 1971 was selling for just under $12,000.

      @@JasonFlorida BMWs are built to fail nowadays. It’s the most profitable aspect of their business (i.e. parts and service). It’s so annoying I stopped buying their cars anymore. Their ‘90s cars were so reliable and then after 2000 they just started failing after 100,000km like clockwork (transfer case, head gasket, aircon compressor, brake lines and on and on). I’m so done with that marque. Only Porsche now baby!

    Ouch! That engine placement gives me a headache just looking at it. Not only are half the spark plugs impossible to access, I'm wondering how you can get a carburetor synchronizer down there to properly set the throttles on the Webers. I'm skeptical of Webers on an engine that big anyway. Seems like the throttle bores would be restrictive considering the large cylinder bores down in the engine. I have 42 DCOE's on my 2.0L Cosworth-Vega, and I think they are marginal. 45's would be more like it, considering the long duration cams I have in it.

    Super interesting. Sounded like it was running on 6 cylinders with the idle speed cranked up. I'm pleasantly surprised that they went through with posting this video, and also reassured because this is what owning vintage cars is really like. You have Jay Leno featuring your car with a full film crew and you go to take it there and it's suddenly running like s*&t. That's life with old cars, or bikes, or anything vintage, tbh. Things will stop working from one start to the next. I love the honesty of this video.
