Sweeeeet. I saw these FXX's at the Ferrari Festival at Silverstone a couple of years back. Awesome noise! Also awesome experience for the lucky few chosen by Ferrari to take part in this research and development exercise!

Oh. My. God. My jaw is on the ground. That is awesome.

Hahaha although they're both exactly the same, the photography makes the second one looks sooooo much better. Love old Ferraris - which one's that one?

To quote Ferris Bueller; "I love driving it. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up. Mint..."
I'd still prefer a GTO though.

Yeah thats right, the bumpers and roof are different, its a 250 GTO convertible if I'm not mistaken.

Wash your mouth out right now. 250 GTOs only came in hard top of which only 38 were made from memory. Totally different kettle of fish between the two. California was for the rich playboys in California funnily enough. The GTO is a road going race car purely to decimate the opposition and the most beautiful and best car ever made period.
Edit: I'd give one of my nuts for either one. Possibly both and more for a GTO but at $8 million or so for one when they actually come up for sale...
