Look at it. It's not red.

It's olive-green. And I want it. You should too, and here's why: It's beautiful, and would just be gaudy in Rosso Corso. Like, Ew, another red Ferrari? Blegh. This muted green, however, is intriguing and will, most certainly, bring some hate from the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! of this world. Pissing off the Rods brings me great pleasure and joy.

And then there is the reason most people buy a Ferrari: attention. Yep, people buy them for attention . They want to get noticed . They want people to be jealous of them. Because, lets face it, that's pretty much in line with the current corporate douchebaggery™. A green Ferrari says the same thing as a blue Ferrari: "I have good taste and bought a Ferrari because it is interesting, fun to drive, and classy." When was the last time you head someone describe the Ferrari ownership experience as " classy" ? Well, maybe !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! or !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , but that's besides the point.

Those of you with inferior knowledge of classic Ferraris are thinking: "Wow! Look at that! It's a green 250 SWB California Spider Mk2! Why would someone repaint a classic Ferrari!?!?!?!?" Well, I'm sorry to burst your bubble - wait, no I'm not - but Ferraris used to be ordered in other colors than red. If you need to take a moment, I'll wait.

Done? Cool. Well this is actually a 1960 Ferrari 400 Superamerica SWB Cabriolet by Pinin Farina (No, I didn't spell Pininfarina wrong. Look it up) and RM is putting it across the block at this year's Amelia Island auction in March.

That's right. It's for sale and !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I have always loved the GT250 in black as well. That green is so classy!

That would be most inappropriate. Rod would want at least $10k off for that.

It is gorgeous. There is a blue 330 that comes to our cars and coffee. I like blue, my old Merc is blue. But if I was Leno I would have a green in there too. But there are some amazing green Ferraris for sure. The pale green is nice, Daytona is pretty too.

Actually this green 930 is one of my fav Porsche colors, amazing in person.

YES! A green 365 GTC/4 is possibly one of the most unloved or underrated Ferraris ever, excluding the Mondial, because who really likes the Mondial?
