Ferraris Flat 12, The Ferrari 512BB, Berlinetta Boxer. 

Which she says in the video!!

@@Jamesp1972 yes, and I just added more complete and precise information.

That 💯 exactly!! Not to forget about alfa romeo.. love the classics of italian cars 🔥

Thanks!!!!!

You drive the car instead of the car driving you.

Ditto Kev, Was aged 10 in 1978 when I saw one parked in front of a clothing department store called Best'N'Less in Sydney 🇦🇺. It was a magnificent midnight blue 512 BB with beige seats. There was nothing like this in those days as Ferraris in general in Australia were in fact as rare 'as hen's teeth.' Even grown men stopped and openly stared at this gorgeous specimen.

@@FrostedSeagull those moments etched in our memories are there forever, boxers look awesome in blue!! My moment was when my fathers friend actually purchased a 365GT4BB in 1983 (I couldn't believe it!!), it wasn't until 1984 I was able to spend a whole Sunday morning with it, I still have all the photos, and the memories, I will never forget the sound, the smell, and how cool it felt to be in one of the 42 RHD 365's in the world!! I do prefer the cleaner looks of the 512, they made subtle improvements, definitely prefer the dual tail lights as opposed to the triple on the 365, its iconic, there I go waffling on!!........I do own a Ferrari now, but its only a modest 348GTB, hopefully its a stepping stone!!

@@kev-the-windsurfer. What a cool story and experience. ! 👌

Thats the plan. Glad your enjoying the videos. :)

its the front bumper, I've seen a Testarossa with a 512M bumper on the front and it looks way better, look up Matte Black Ferrari Testarossa & GTR here on youtube and you'll see it, also the daytona was the last ferrari imported into the US, this is grey market and depending on the time it might be straight piped with only basic mufflers given its a pre 75 car to even be in the fools gold state while the testarossa was Ferrari's return to the US market outside of the ferrari 308 and was focused on giving Lamborghini Countach performance, without the ear blistering sound, crippling back pain and horrible fuel economy. and was modified accordingly where the cooling lines were rerouted and reworked, it was basically a remake of the ferrari daytona in midengined form and had that similar millaigned rep about it where its either love it or hate it, and I love it save for that damn front bumper that ruins the car.

@@kavinskysmith4094 I think what ultimately was so polarizing about the Testarossa were those massive vertical slats that covered the intakes for the engine bay. Some Ferrari owners blasted the car for that and they also felt that it made too many compromises. I remember comments made that it was more of a Mercedes than a Ferrari. It lacked the more aggressive nature of the BB to them. The one Ferrari that I really love is the 288 GTO. Ferrari really got that one right even if some Ferrari fans think it's crude.

@@komradkolonel well the main thing is the sound I think, which people have changed on their own, and is a popular mod to it, once they do that they love it as its not just the sound, the car revs to 6500 RPM, and its been quieted down abit, so you got less revs and a more quiet exhaust and the exhaust is really what tells your going fast hence why so many people go nuts with it, also it didnt help that on Miami vice, the show that made it famous they were kinda sound dubbing it at some points so you got a bit of a disapointment factor at times. while if you know what your getting into and you like it for what it is you love it, like one of the most current famous owner does Harry Metcalf who took his to the saharah of all things, and the funny thing was he came across a worked over single mirror car with a worked over throttle, and some performance mods, like a different gearing to it to make it more countach like and actually got rid of it and kept the stock one without ever doing a video on it sadly, as I would have liked to seen what a more countach like testarossa would have been like. also with the 288 the reason for its crudeness is its designed to be a group B rally car, which is why the diff on the back end is so exposed for easy changing, which spilled over into the 348 and the 355 when group B went away thanks to a bad crash and the drivers getting gradually more and more tied of the lax safety precautions regarding the crowds, that got shelved and the thing got reworked into a track machine to make the F40 which in of itself is a crude machine with fake carbon Kevalr on it I found, they literally made the thing of fiberglass and put on a fake weave of carbon kevlar on the top to make people think it was FULLY carbon Kevlar lol

another post that is of zero value to anyone but youself. Why would you think anyone came here to find out which cars are your favs? This isn't the MCM channel

Yep. And those wedge shaped designs began showing up in concept cars in the late 60s.

@@cinsc556 Yes, the earliest kind of wedge concept car i can think of now is the 1967 Lamborghini Marzal. Le mans prototypes from the 60s had a somewhat wedgeshape too mixed with curves.

oh aren't we the witty one

Imaginary friend

@@adelhartreisig9020 true story!

BB stands for berlinetta boxer It is written in the owners manual. Also 180 degrees V-engine does not exist. It's called a flat engine.

@@roverwaters3875 Posso sapere che cazzo di manuali hai letto? Sono curioso comque no sta per berlinetta bialbero, anche la ferrari testa rossa ha un v12 180°

no

That odd moment you realize we have been friends with Chinetti for many years, traveled to italy with him aswell.

Sammy still has it..Eddie had a really nice Miura.

@@Jonathan-mt9up And Claudio (from the video) was his actual mechanic.

@@adamluke1289 Yup, and Claudio suggested to Eddie that he call Sammy after DLR left, and the rest is history.

ugh

BB stands for berlinetta boxer It is written in the owners manual. Also V shape of an engine is given by the cylinder position, not the crankshaft. So a 180 degrees V-engine does not exist. It's called flat engine.

@@roverwaters3875 Please post a link where in the owners manual page the word "boxer" is shown. That's simply a legend. I knew it: you don't even believe the men who design that engine!

@@Falcone-en4wl google pictures of the owners manual...

@@roverwaters3875 No, please read the actual manual. You will find easily on "Manualslib"

@@Falcone-en4wl I read the cover, it says "berlinetta boxer"

So thats not true. You can modify post 75 cars. You just have to go to a smog ref and if you emissions ate up to par or better you get a fancy new sticker and will pass smog. You can also happily bring in out of state non modified post 76 cars. Federal emissions will pass if that is how they were manufactured. :)

@@FerrarisOnline huh that kinda actually flies in contrary to what I heard from the worthless whips channel who was fixing up a 77 trans am, they said they wanted it stock, all the way through and wouldnt allow ANY changess, even though the stock parts suck, like he gave the impression that even a 1 to 1 replacement of the headers would fail it, and that he had to fix the original parts because of that and that it had to be as it was in 77' which if you know anything about the quality of those cars is like are you joking, they were TERRIBLE back then lol like the castings were terrible and nothing was balanced, blueprinted, or even polished hence why those things just flat out rattle themselves apart. like is their different laws or rules for each section of Cali going on here and their not speaking to each other?

If he put headers on it that had a C.A.R.B # on it he would pass emissions just fine. They have RV cams with C.A.R.B #s.. i had an 85 c10, with hooker headers, comp rv cam, aftermarket air cleaner. As long as the aftermarket parts have the california ok, when they run the smog they throw the #s in the computer and all is well. And to answer your question no. California smog is california smog.

@@FerrarisOnline huh, alright didnt know, I didnt even know they had a computer system for that.

we'll surely be seeing you soon on "To Catch a Predator" no doubt. How's that ankle bracelet working out for you M?

then don't watch and move on like an adult
