      Well considering it doesn't have a roof plus he's a kind of guy to have about 10 or more cars, I'd say 10k in 7 years is plenty, I drive about 20 miles a day so I'd drive that distance in about a year in a half, and it's my only car

    The tipo F133 is a fabulous design by Pininfarina, Lorenzo Ramaciotti. Clean, athletic and tastefully refined. This must have been the last year of its production as the 575M took over (still as tipo F133). Their sequential successors, tipo 141 (599) and tipo 140 (F12) both look astonishing as well. It is when the 812 came about, that I’ve lost quite some interest tbh as it tends to look at tad vulgar to my taste. This 550 Barchetta is such a treat to the eyes. Thank you both for showing.

    This is exactly why I don't like any of the new Ferrari's. This is the kind of Ferrari that Enzo would appreciate. Don't forget that of all the cars Jay has, none of them are Ferrari's. These 550 Barchetta's made their original owners a bunch of money, as they appreciated greatly. If I ever bought one, it would have to be like this one. So very glad to see it's not red. These are twice the price of the coupes. Thank you.

    @ "...why there were a lot of cylinders and very little displacement."
    Not only tax and cost in money, but early engine designers were conscientious about making good power with low air consumption (e.g. A 3L twelve uses less than a third the air of a 3L four making the same power). Low air consumption was an engineering concern that became subordinate to low fuel consumption and reduced metal work.

      You are correct - he lapses into nostalgia now - because he is a boomer. Also he always has negative things to say about cars but NEVER the one he features so he is a bit phony too - otherwise he's driving a lot of cars he "hates" and I don't think that's the case. He knows being negative is bad for ratings. There is a reason he won't own a Ferrari, too which cracks me up because he has no problem featuring them !!! d:D 📺

    Because of the hilarious looking soft & hardtop this 550 has. I would go with the 550 Maranello. I live where it is over 100°f for half the year.

    Wonder if you’d get a RUSH with a red one. 😉

    Jay, I like your channel very much. Thank you for sharing, with us, cars that we can experience vicariously. One thing that makes me cringe is when you go to close a hood of a vehicle and you push/pull down on the corner of the hood. Please pull the hoods down from the center. Just me sharing a little experience/knowledge. I am glad that Barchetta was pronounced correctly and not like in the song by RUSH.

    This car always reminds me of Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 on PS2 from 2002

    Great car from an era when Ferrari did actually make beautiful cars.

    I love the manual. I could care less if a modern automatic is faster, this is what driving a sports car should be.

    That's a beautiful Ferrari.
    I wonder what they are going for now?

    I know that Jay is famously anti-Ferrari but it is nice to see that he can still appreciate the good ones
