Ferrari Comparison

[Amir]

F50

F40

288 GTO


(I would have included the Enzo, but its too new and it would have been a bit unfair for the others )


Enjoy

What are we comparing? Performance? Looks? Overall? Which would hurt the least if you got hit by it?

the 288 gto would hurt me less cause i would take pride in the fact that I got hit by a million dollar car

Since the F40 is so wedge-like, it would slice you in half more than hit you, I figure a slicing like that can't hurt for too long.


Hurry up and elaborate (Comparison topic) before we go too far with this.

Overall comparison of these legendary exotics.

Yeah, but the point of the wedge is down near your ankles. So if anything, you would get your feet cut off and then slide over the nice smoooth surface until you hit the spoiler. Maybe you could slip under it....


As for overall, I'm not sure which I would go with, the F40 or the 288. Both are equally amazing automobiles.

I stand corrected, the spoiler I reckon would cause some pain. So the 288 GTO wouldprobably hurt the least.

as for an overall comparison, it realyl can't be properly done in just a few lines, or even pages. it would take a 1000 page book to properly go over each car and it's own strengths/weaknesses. It can be easily sorted out using bias, for example I'd pick the F50 for it's more sensous design, but the F40 and 288 GTO are a very close tie for second behind. It's really just hard to do after years of seeing each car in and aroudn the media, and what each car is associated with and such.
