Nice list once again, personally I'd put the Porsche on a lower spot because I really dislike it's handling. Looking forward to more of this video's, especially the 1965 cars since I'm still not very familair with those.
I won't dispute the handling of the Ferrari 712 M, but a fourth-place finish at Watkins Glen in the hands of Mario Andretti doesn't sound so awful. Prior to Can-Am, Ferrari hadn't made an engine of over 5.0 liters in capacity. They first went in with a 1967 330 P4, turned into a 350 Spider. They tried both 6.2- and 6.9-liter, high-winged cars in 1969, and then utilized their new 512 engine in enlarged 5.6- and 5.7-liter forms in 1970. So it wasn't as though Ferrari didn't have a real go at it. One car I definitely wish was in the mod that isn't is the BRM P167.

Is the dislike of the Porsche's handling relative to other CanAm '71 cars or just in general? In relative sense, I'd understand.
Yes relative indeed.
Yeah, in that sense, the Porsche is way out of its league.
But loose from the rest I feel it drives really well.

Thumbs up for a Batmobile livery?
