Anyone who saw 5th Gear last night will know that they asked people to vote on their favourite ever prancing horse.

I wonder what Backroomers would would vote for - and why.

F40. Simply awesome.

Too young to get really really excited about anything Daytona and before. No sentiments with it. Just pure, neck swivelling, lusting, stomach-aches-so-much-i-want-one desirability.

1st - Any one that comes with a diesel engine

2nd - 456 Wagon (7 made, 6 for Sultan of Brunei) as then I could fit my kids in files.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images.php

I would have to agree. F40.
I had many a poster of this on my wall when I was younger!

Quite why they didn't have the F355 on the list escapes me. It's the most beautiful Ferrari ever.

Forget the ferraris,does anybody agree that Miss Butler-Henderson looked 100% better in short skirt,boots and nylons?

To be honest the choice of the Countach would get my vote if it was about spending £40k and screw the running costs. Problem is the F40 would be at least another £100k on top. At least you can see out of the F40 tho.

Aah, Cannonball Run's opening scenes will live with me for ever....

Speaking of which, await my next post.

I found this edition of 5th Gear a bit of a bore. All those people voting for a cars they have never driven... no surprise about the odd results then!

However on the upside I do agree 100% with the sentiments above, and as such it wasn't a complete waste of time :o)

250 Le Mans everytime for me

Don't really care much for there new additions - although wouldn't say no if one was left in the garage for me :-)
Your Favourite Ferrari is... - PR {P}
F40 for me, just looks so well proportioned, and is fast as chuff.
I wonder how the Testarossa won? Must have been one of these voting fiddles I reckon!

Favourite Ferrari for me is the 288 GTO with its 328-like looks and twin-turbo performance.

360 Modena for me as well.

After much consideration I'll go for a 456.

Ferraris should be beautiful and this is the most.

As you may know, the Testarossa was 5th Gear's favourite Ferrari, which proves that Anne Robinson isn't the only high powered redhead to stumble on success despite their looks.

But the cognoscenti of the backroom have now spoken and hail the following Maranello masterpieces:

1st F40
2nd 456
3rd = 355,360 and 250
6th = GTO, 575 and 308

The Lamborghini Countach and the elusive Lolo Rip were also 6th. I can't prove the Lolo Rip doesn't exist and think it sounds better than those shonky numbers any road.

There were a couple of spoiled papers, as Vicki Butler-Henderson may prance, but is certanly not a horse.

Many thanks.

Oh, and by the way, for every single post extolling the sheer brilliance of the greatest marque in sports car history, there were five backroomers posting on Car Mats.

How refreshing.

Just to be slightly pedantic, it was actually the voting public's favourite car. 5th Gear were just announcing the results.

Shall I start the "Favourite Ferrari Car Mat" thread then.. ;-)

A bit late now that the backroom results have been announced....

456GT - IMO the most beautiful car Ferrari ever made (and probably will ever make).

The owner of an office building that used to be leased by the company I work for had a dark blue one with natural tan interior. He used to visit the building about once a month and always park it right outside the main entrance. On those days my lunch hour was usually spent just walking round the car admiring it - not a single bad angle, a car never looked so good standing still.

Liked the program, but the car used in Miami Vice was a black Daytona convertible (?fake), NOT a Testarossa.

Dark blue early 1960s 250 GTE 2+2. I recall seeing one for sale at a dealers in Egham and falling in love with it on the spot. A suprisingly tall, capacious and practical car for a Ferrari.

The 250GT Lusso comes a close second.

What about the 288 GTO? Amazed it wasn't mentioned.

The best by a mile for me...
Just Ferraris - Maz
Rudedog,

Miami Vice used a convertible Daytona early doors. When Ferrari found that was a fake they gave the programme makers a white Testarossa for the cops to ponce around in.

The 288 GTO did collect one vote (Stackman), and is very beautiful.
