A little bit OT, but a special car...
Just stumbled on this photo from the Ferrari museum on my last trip to Italy, thought you all might like a break frrom our Corvettes for one of the prettiest vehicles in existence

It's very hard for a car to stand out in that museum, but this one succeeds with ease...

If I was rich and wanted a classy night out, yes one of my Favorites. I have driven many of models 1961 250 GT SWB, and 1959 LWB, a Superfast, and 275 Berlinetta, but the Lusso is sweat, pure sexy! I have never seen that color.

Beautiful Car ! (Tho' that seems insufficient)
Something I just noticed...
Enlarged...
I wonder if there is a FerrariForum.com somewhere with raging debates on which models and years had the 2 ear spinner and which had 3 ears and if both were factory originals ?

Love the Lusso bodies.
Thanks for sharing.
I've got to get to the Ferrari museum someday.

My son and I visited all the Ferrari museums one morning, sandwiched between a tour of a local Balsamic maker and perhaps the best lunch I’ve ever eaten, at a farm close by. A great day.
The Lusso was all I saw when we entered the dome shown in the photo, even displayed among some of the rarest and most beautiful cars in the world. The gorgeous Pininfarina bodywork and spectacular, unexpected color, are an amazing combination.
If you get the chance, it’s a very worthwhile visit.

Not sure there’s a bad angle of a Lusso. The front fenders are perfect. The C pillar blend with the rear deck is my favorite…
