The last Ferrari design I loved unconditionally was the F40.
F50 looks grat overall with the top on, but some details bug me, like the hump on the hood.
Enzo has too much going on. MC12 looks eleventy times better IMO.
348 looks good, but outdated.
355 still looks as good as day one.
360 and 430 (even Scuderia) don't do much for me, never did. Challenge Stradale I like, though.
California doesn't look like a Ferrari to me. It's just some random car.
The Testarossa isn't necesserily beautiful, but it has character, and that's why I like it. It's not yet another "let's blend in" Ferrari. 512 TR is (lookswise) my favourite of the Testarossa/512TR/512M trio.
I thought the 456 and 550/575 looked ok when they first came out, and I adore them right now. They have aged so well.
612, hated it in pictures, still do, but I can't deny it has quite a presence on the street. Huge car.
599 ... meh. Too much stuff going on. Looks like a japanese Manga cartoon thing.
Rankings?
1 - F40
2 - 575
3 - 456 on modern 575 or Novitec rims
4 - 512 TR
5 - 355

New enzo on the way, looks like porsche and the other manufacturers are carrying a super car in their line up shortly. Basically they are re doing what they did in 2003 but with bigger faster and more powerful cars.

They're 355 Challenge wheels, with what look to be semi-slicks. Maybe Pilot Cups or something similar. They look huge as the front ones are larger diameter wheels with rubber band tires.

I'm not saying it's an ugly car, it is very sporty, low and wide. Among the Civics and Corollas, it certainly makes quite an impression.
But if I had to choose a 360 spider vs a 355 ... I'd take the 355, even if it was the same $$$ as the 360. I guess I'm just not a fan of the high/fat/chunky arse of the 360/430.
As Alex said, it's all a matter of personal preference in the end ...

There are people who haven't seen a 360 Spider? Wasn't that Ferrari's best seller in the US?
