I enjoy a good argument so I'll disagree
There would be several Ferraris I'd have in preference - a 250 GT SWB for a start ...

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
It’s one of the few on the list.
250 SWB is definitely alongside.
Especially the silver one with the yellow bonnet stripe that sets the hairs on the back of the neck going at Classic Le Mans![](http://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji41.png)

Yes, ‘63 GTO and SWB and 275 Cali Spyder and 275 GTB Competizione all awesome but I think millions would still agree with me.

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
Going to be a testing day here, so I'll just say...
The best race car in the world is the one you are sitting in on the start line.
But the silver 250 with the yellow cross bonnet stripe is quite nice too.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Well said, but for me a Ferrari would be as a road car, and it would have to be a 330GTC in a dark colour, Navy or gunmetal.......mmmmm.....W

If we’re talking SWBs with a stripe across the bonnet, this one does it for me
