I know usually classic car videos don't get the love they deserve, but PLEASE don't stop making videos like this!
Agreed! They are the best
Try telling Harry they don’t do well.. 😉
Agree with the sentiment though, more like this & an even wider audience can appreciate STG
Wow....your Ferrari test driver companion was a real personality vacuum!!!!😂
Language barrier?
@@ABoringToolit was like he was talking to a barrier, precisely
The test driver appeared to be dead from the neck up. Maybe he thought he was to good to be bothered with the public.
I reckon he has to do so many of these, so probably doesn't share the same excitement as the customer. No excuse though, he should at least pretend to share the enthusiasm as his passenger
It's a common misconception, and bad stereotype that ALL italians are loud, animated and always enthusiastic. Sure some of them are, but even they are not like that all the time.
Perhaps one of the best videos to date and that is saying a lot. Without a doubt one could feel the emotions and enthusiasm for the brand come out from Sam ol' boy!
facts
Sam! One of your best videos. You picked the best aria to back up the glorious sound of the 12 cylinder. Too bad it was so wet that you couldn’t really wring it out! Bravissimo!
Daytona in the 'Tour-de-France' livery is a beauty!
When I was your age I had fun in Ferrari’s too. We all had 308GT4’s back then. Meeting up at Castle Combe for a fun track day. Talking to the older guys with their V12’s. We’d go on more Ferrari track days then. And the same crowd went for weekends away. Almost every weekend we were out in our cars. I think some of the same happens a bit now. I met up with some owners when I dropped into Caffeine & Machine a few times last summer. I’m 77 but my Ferrari is still at the heart of my social life. Mine is a 1988 Mondial 3.2 QV coupe. I just renewed the bushes and rebuilt the Koni’s so it’s very lively now. Pity you missed the pleasure a Mondial gives. They are used in Historic Racing, which says a lot!
Poor Sam.......that co-pilot/instructor was hard work!
U like being filmed at your job and spoken to in a language you dont speak well?
I have always loved how your enthusiasm jumps up a notch or two when in a Ferrari. I miss the old days of Murray Walker and MSC...
Any classic Ferrari video gets our vote. The 308 and Daytona are awesome Ferrari icons. Keep them coming Sam. Vint-tro 🙌🏼
Maria was the best opener- thank you! Thank you!
You left the 365 GT4 2*2 , the 400 and the 412 out of your history. ..and perhaps others I may have forgotten..
..but man, what a day. You’re living the life.
No gimmicks, Sam always lets the cars do the talking.
Jesus christ that instructor could put a glass eye to sleep
🤣
I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and suggest he was nervous because his English wasn't great and he maybe didn't know how much Sam was looking for chat compared to talking to camera himself
Jesus Christ saves every body who is willing to listen!
It’s surprising about the level of detail in the records. When you see pictures of the factories in the 1950’s and 1960’s, the factories looked chaotic and not ordered like today.
The way things are made and the automotive sector in particular, has undergone a series of big changes in the way things are done. The technical steps are relatively similar but the way the flow is arranged, operated and now kept surgically clean has changed beyond all reconfiguration.
Ferrari started making cars at industry level 2.0 and they are now at 4.0…
Upgrading to 5.0 is their current challenge.
@@chriscooper3384 True, but it is also important to remember how few cars were built back then. When you're only building a couple hundred cars a year, you can afford to be "disorganised"
@@itsjaypee I disagree - I’m from the military aircraft experimental vehicle world - all the more reason to be great
What an absolutely fantastic video. I’ve been to Maranello and the factory tour.
Videography is just the best.
Outstanding video, Sam!
What an experience.
I was confused, however, because you kept referencing the 308GTB whilst the video showed B-roll of the GTS.
That aside, full marks!
Thank you.
You own a Ferrari and can drive it any time you want. You still get giddy when you get to drive other Ferraris. Absolutely love your enthusiasm for all types of cars.
I just got back from a track day in a Formula 3 and your video was the perfect way to top off an amazing day. Please keep up the amazing content mate (love the podcast too; it's part of my weekly routine)
Thanks for sharing this Sam.
Most enjoyable and brought memories of my visits to Fiorano and the Factory.
Glad you enjoyed the 550,in my top 10 of Ferrari I have owned .❤👍
A great day Sam...Daytona... Just a beautiful & elegant GT car which looked and sounded ❤
Sam your allowed to be a biased ‘ fan boy’ ( inc T shirts) on this occasion. You’re living in the moment enthusiasm carries us along. What an opportunity, thanks for brining us along and putting us in the seat along for the ride. 👍
Sam get a hold of another Mondial and give it a ring. I own a 3.2 cab and know modern hatches are faster, but the wind in the hair and the ability to run up the gears without going to jail is wonderful. One with an exhaust is such a treat. Cheers
I’ve a 3.2 Mondial Coupe and love it! It’s at 74350miles & I’ve just renewed the bushes & had the Koni’s rebuilt. Watching this video made me want to go out for a drive!!
"I just want to be a cooler being"
- I feel that 😃
The 308 has always been my dream. My era.
But, I rest content. Our Alfa spider has the same dashboard air vents from the great big Italian parts bucket.
Great video Sam. Thank you.
This is a fantastic video! Thank you for sharing! The Ferraris are fantastic. The Daytona in light blue - just increadible! Wow!
“They could make this wood better”😂
This video surprised me so much, I loved every second.
One of your best videos!
Love the 550 Maranello.
Loving your content, Sam. The channel, the podcast - both in the rotations. Thanks for keeping up with it! Big effort
SUNDAYS WITH SAM ☕️🐿
Fantastic work. 550 M is the only Ferrari I have ever driven and it was intoxicating. A very different beast to modern equivalent.
Sam is the only one who can make an Italian think: "oh calm down man, it's just a Ferrari"
Interesting dash situation in the 550. The car is obviously a 550, has a 550 steering wheel, 575 gauge cluster, the three upper gauges on a 550 are missing..no need to have them I guess because they are on the 575 gauges. Anyway, I wonder what the deal is, maybe some sort of test mule when they were changing things over?
Love the video. I do feel like sending you out in a Mondial in the rain is hazing by Ferrari but hey we love em for being the quirky company they are.
That blip of your enthusiasm in the beginning was priceless. That's how I feel Everytime I see a Ferrari too lol.
Trade in that flappy paddle(CS) boy racer you have for a brilliant Maranello 550.
Its got room, it's comfortable, a V12 and is renown for its excellent handling and performance and of course, that lovely gated shifter.
Get one while they are gettable, Sam. The only direction they are going is UP.
Maranello!! Grazie Ferrari. Grazie. Ferrari we love your cars. Today you brought back history letting Sam drive 3 very special and iconic cars that youve made. We love to see it. Ferrari we love you. Ferrari we want more collaborations with SeenThroughGlass in the future. This is a great thing and we want more.
Wow the Ferrari archive system is absolutely mind-blowing and I love it 😍
Great video Sam, especially interesting to me as pre kid and home I had a Mondial 3.2 and a 550M. Sam, you keep saying you want a classic, an Alfa 105 Series Coupe or Saloon restomod would be perfect for you.
Exquisite opening sequence Sam, and if any RUclipsr is going to do a classic F car justice it’ll be you. I’ll take a 575M
So happy for you Sam for such privileged occasion!!
Thanks for another great content 😉👍🏼
Manual V12 Ferrari is just the top dog, doesn’t get cooler.
Big thumbs up for your ongoing classic car content!
Great video Sam love how your passion comes over good on you.
You wasn’t waffling Sam, just excitement and passion from an awesome invite and day at Ferrari. Your spiritual home. 👍
What an absolutely beautiful day. Wonderfully presented Sam. Soon, you'll be collecting your next Ferrari right here.... ❤
Thanks for taking us on a journey to the Ferrari Factory! 🏎🐎
The music for the GTB drive 👌
I heard the intro song and i tthought of mr.beans holiday instantly
Thanks for all the content Sam!
I love Shmee, but I am an old car guy. This was awesome.
Really nice video, pity about the weather.
The Ferraris of today only exist because of the Ferraris of yesterday, and one thing this video couldn’t possibly show is how special each of these cars were in their own era, i.e. how they stood above their rivals back in the day.
Back in the mid 1970s people were still pottering about in 50bhp VW Beetles and the like, the 308 with it’s 240bhp must have felt like the equivalent of an SF90 versus a MK8 Golf does today!
Doing a bs k to back test of a Bertie v 308 would really show that stark difference….an idea for a future video perhaps…context is everything!
Finally some classic sportscar from the 80 and 90.
This event was all a long a teaser to the ferrari 12cilindri
Sam, I didn't watch that, I felt it. Well done, excellent content!
Casual Tony Hadley cameo at 07:40. Kudos Sam.
Absolutely yes ! Can't miss you filming at Ferrari
Your channel continues to get better and better, well done mate :-)
Good that Ferrari will not let me drive this Daytona because I would drown in my own drool. Fantastic upload Sam!
So great to see your real passion show. It's so much better than the Porsche passion.
lol taking snobbery to a new height 😂
Bravissimo and Grazie 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Truly religious experience for a true Tifosi 🏎️🏁🙏🏼
That Daytona is just the coolest Ferrari in the world. I had a model one and wanted one ever since.
What an experience. Only thing missing today was a good coffee shot. I would love to try a 500 Superfast.
This what we call a amazing Sunday video sam. What a awesome group of classic ferrari 😎.
I've always thought the 550M had such a stunning design. Even to this day it still looks great.
reminds me of that Monaco F12TDF thats in the same spec. Arguably my favourite Ferrari of all time
Been to the museum definitely worth a visit amazing day out
Would love to see you do a video of first owner v12 Ferraris and do it like a sit down doc style!!!
Awesome video Sam 🔥👍🏻
I saw the minder turn off the blinker on the Daytona. I wonder if it didn’t have the turn signal return.
Wipers
I noticed the 550 you drove has a 575 instrument cluster. Did they happen to mention why?
Great video Sam, I am sure Ferrari will be happy with their 'advert' 😅
Enjoyed that great content 👍👍👍👍🇮🇹🇬🇧
Super video, love it!
Amazing Sam!! 👍🏼👍🏼
These Italians are strictly business! Even Sam can’t get them to crack
Thanks Sam great🏴
Love your classic cars video ..
The opening scene 😙👌🏼
So cool, what an amazing experience, congrats
Brilliant video, cheers 🍺
Sam I know you're a Ferrari Fan Boy, but are you ok with the politics you have to play to buy a new one? I think they are undoubtedly a terrific auto. But the politics to buy them? Not sure. Even if I had the cash....
It's only for their limited production and special cars like other supercar brands.
@@_AmarjitSingh doesn't matter. I think it's ridiculous! Very arrogant
@@michae8jackson378 Why don't you give me a proper process to allocate a limited production car? They just can't give it to anyone especially one who has no Ferrari buying history, that person might just end of flipping the car for more money, so they don't allocate these cars to just about anyone.
It’s the politics that make the brand more desirable for some people though. If you compare some Ferraris to their contemporary McLarens for instance, they had chassis that weren’t as rigid, electronic assisted steering compared to hydraulic, they were heavier, had less power, and yet they’re still more valuable
@@SirCosta1 Yes, you're absolutely correct and the perfect example would be the 458 Speciale and the 675LT!
What's the brand of the MSC white t shirt?? Please help me
Just another perfect video ❤
Great video Sam! Hope you’re doing well
Great video sam
Must have been so much fun!
Great stuff. Are you sponsored by the word ‘iconic’? 😂
What kind of watch is Sam wearing in the Daytona ?
I don't think I've ever seen a more dis-interested person than that Ferrari instructor
The Mondial is a fuss when cold.
Wonder if your Ferrari assistant was thinking 'can we please, please just listen to that engine..'...
The documents part is very interesting. Still interested in how many cars are built in reality instead of what Ferrari tells us. Like the 599 SA Aperta and other special cars.
I'm not a big Ferrari fan buuuuuuuut...
The 550 Maranello in silver? Yes please! All day, every day!
Great film Sam
A good interesting and genuine channel, just when I am starting to glaze over with constant uploads from many others in funding their new over the top garage?
how about the 412 ?
Yes, Ferrari produced a front engine V12 GT car after the Daytona - 365, 400, 400i, and 412.
@@schumi456 365 is a tiny carborated Colombo v12, so there's something special about that. There's also the cannonball run stuff. Has to be a reason the 400i is a 100k car and the Daytona is a 600k car.
There were at least 5 front engined V12 GT models from Ferrari between Daytona and 456 GT
365 GTC/4
365 GT4 2+2
400
400i
412
@@th3b0untyhunter These are all 2+2. The 550 succeeded the Daytona as the next strictly 2 seats front engined V12 GT car from Ferrari
@seenthroughglass you never mentioned the seating arrangement.
You simply said Daytona was last front engined v12 gt until the 456gt - and that's not true
Figured you would bring your CS….one day one day ❤
Real driving unlike all the new stuff…❤😂 with their synthetic exhaust sounds..😢
love the vid but it would been great if Tony was there. he would done more than just fiddle around with the controls
