Yeah, yeah, I know, “Lucas, Prince of Darkness” etc etc, and the whole leaks oil thing. Like synchronizing the carbs on that 12-cylinder in the Ferrari is any easier.

Actually, I wasn't referring to either. The coupe, I think, has cleaner lines. Now, for a drop-top jag, you have to look at the older D-type:

CRAP! I could build one from SCRATCH for less than that!But people wouldn't buy it with the explicit understanding that it was made by magical Italian gnomes and fairies who impart their spells and potions into the construction to make it go faster than the imagination :-)

I don't think Leno has that much money. But I could be wrong. Wow, I sound just like Obama. Present!

And powered by 302 Italian horses which we all know are somewhat petite compared to American and German horses.
Does it come with an Italian dynamometer?

Per Wikipedia (giant grain of salt) 250 GTOs went for $18,000 in the early 1960s. Probably $125k in todays money.It doesn't surprise me, and it could be right. If you listen to Bill Cosby's "Natural Childbirth" bit, you'll hear him talk about his $17,000 new Ferrari...

If you could afford a 250 GTO, then you could also afford a swarm of your own mechs for any adjustments...or ship it back to the factory to have the windshield washed.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I thought the same thing ... it’s just a year’s salary. When the buyer is revealed we should ping each other. My son said it could be Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason ... he has a huge Ferrari collection.

I had one.
Lousy gas mileage, hard to keep tuned up, too small to make-out in, golf clubs won't fit in trunk and you can't pick up lumber at Home Depot........oh, and it's a real pain in the neck to drive in the winter.
I finally traded it in on a Honda.
