Always top of my list. I drove this car pretty much flat out in 2007. Simply unforgettable

I understand these can be quite a handful at high speed. Was it difficult at the high end or just ultra sensitive to inputs?

I only had it on (a vary quick and well understood piece of fast road at dawn) but it had some challenging twists. I had it up at about 180 mph though briefly. I doubt that I truly challenged it though I had one good jump. Personally I thought it was razor sharp and responsive . As we now know it was too fast for the tire technology of the time and Porsche has recently had Michelin produce hugely better tires for it that are transformative.


……and the sound of that V10 behind you.

Along with the Lexus LF-A the greatest engine sound ever for me.

. AMazinglineup of F50s!

Maybe its my age but when it come to Ferraris, I have a weakness for the pontoon Testa Rossa and the 250 GTO. I saw both of them in Philadelphia a few years ago....
