      It’s defiantly a car that was probably made can’t deny that..but you know what I’d say my 2013 Prius can get the job done and we don’t want to mess up the climate any more right? This thing seems like a gas guzzler.

    Goosebumps. A few years back I drove a 348 at a race track for a few laps. It was heavy to steer and the clutch was stiff. But that was at low speed. When I opened it up, I couldn't believe the seemingly limitless power and the way it screamed louder and louder behind my head. As the man says, it's sensory overload. The perfection of the ride and roll, with an engine that seems alive. Painfully beautiful.

      The camera work DOES do the car justice, I agree. But if you want to see proper SWB action, look for Goodwood Revival where these cars are still raced today, against othres cars of the same era. Now THAT is classic action, in the heat of battle and they do it every year.

    Thanks for the video of a fabulous Ferrari icon. Was looking forward to hearing the musical sound of the V12 engine climb through the revs, but the overlayed music in the video spoiled that a bit. I don’t mind a bit of filler music in performance car videos, but not during the moments where the beautiful sounding engine should take precedence over any introduced background sound. Just my thoughts, others might prefer to hear the added background music…

      The E-type is faster, has disc brakes and independent suspension. And it was a third of the price. The E-type's biggest problem is the volume of cars made. It would be a million dollar car it it was rare... Anyway back to the point. It is an urban myth that Enzo said the E-type was the most beautiful car ever made. What Enzo said was that the only thing wrong with the E-type was that it did not have a prancing horse on it. This is according to Norman Devis who was present at the time. But as Norman later said. Enzo didn't speak english and Norman didn't speak Italian, so who really know what the old man really said.....
