A case can be made that the NSX was the most influential car on Ferrari during the 90s. Just sayin'.

Re: AF Group Build: A Tribute To The 60 Red Years

Well I like the NSX and I think that those vtec V6 may be better than some italian V8 (early gen.) but Ferraris aren't just car, are piece of art

Sounds like as good a reason as any to get my F40 back in gear and to the finish line- for it's 20th anniversary!

Not to derail the thread (much more) but when Honda's mid engine supercar came out - even though it may not have been nearly as powerful as a Ferrari - it could handle as well if not better than what was available, and as a bonus, it wasn't an exotic handgrenade just waiting to self destruct. It was then that Ferrari had to step up their game to keep ahead of carmakers such as Honda, who were catching up very rapidly. The NSX was proving that supercar performance didn't have to be at the expense of liveability. Ferrari had to quit resting on their laurels, develope powerful and well handling sportscars, and really do some work as far as reliability. That, I'd call influential.

It's up to you buddy~ According to your speed I guess you can finish another model after your JP FXX, so my opinion is "why not 512s?" It's good to see as various models as possible~

Re: AF Group Build: A Tribute To The 60 Red Years

X-mas eve you say. Sounds like a challenge I can play with. I do have a 355 near the top of the bench and I've got an F50 nearby as well.
