Out of all the classic 60s Ferraris, 250s and especially the 330s, the 2+2 are almost affordable, compared to their 2 seater GT brothers. Look for a 250 GTE and compare it to a SWB or a TDF. Still gorgeous, still Italian, more or less same engine, more comfortable and usable but "only" in the mid 200.000s over here in Europe. Again, not cheap but you won't need to sell your first borne, the house and a kidney to afford one.
Driven cars while being maintained feels great, especially the interior. You can't replace patina and history. That v12, sounds really sweet. No wonder why Enzo Ferrari liked them 👌
Enzo saw Packard's v-12s and was really inspired and liked them like the smooth characteristics so he based his motor off the American Packard design! kinda cool
@@Toxic2T patina doesn't necessarily mean arlequin or torn surfaces, rust holes and so on, there is a fine line between patina and too far gone. An un restored classic car if being in good shape after decades will be worth more than a restored one even with hundreds of hours on the body
The intake sound of the Weber’s makes a big difference, it’s a must drive kind of thing. The smell of the leather and gas and oil, they should make it a cologne
Just the fact that you know how to downshift puts you in the top tier of car reviewers on RUclips. Sounds silly, but its refreshing to see someone in this genre who actually bothered to become fully competent at driving before trying to publish automotive content.
@@TedwardDrives If only you'd mastered the use of turn signals. Grinds my gears when people think they're special and don't need to indicate where they're going.
Grazie Enzo Ferrari, sei e sarai sempre un mito! Senza di te non avremmo mai potuto sviluppare una passione cosi grande per questi bellissimi automobili che hai costruito!
Not only a glorious sound, good recordings, no: You actually know how to downshift and match the revs accordingly. Thumbs up, honestly did expect you to mess it up! Thanks for the upload, Steve McQueen comes immediately to my mind.
mine as well! I really love the practicality of this model but with the larger displacement V-12 with a 5 speed. Its a super clean design with one of the best interiors

@@alexanderliving4997 regardless of that there wasn't many of those made either. The Cailfornia, gt and Testa Rossa are all incredibly rare as well. And all off them pull in several millions and millions of dollars at auction if they're even being sold at all. Not saying it isn't possible just unlikely.
@@brianfoster4493 Those millions at auction are modern prices, not 1960s/1970s prices when they could be had for “cheap.” There are plenty of stories of older Ferraris being sold long before their value skyrocketed, and there are also several different variations of the 250 GT cars.
@@boxman1571 he specifically states he had a 250 . Made only from 1952 to 1964 .Roughly 1,600 were built In a 14 year time period , 39 of which were the gto . Not sure I'm convinced but honestly I don't care that much . It's only youtube .
When I did my highschool co - op placement at a Mercedes dealership the shop foreman used to play CDs with engine sounds on them. Him and a few of the older mechanics would stand around listening to them and all try to guess what car it was or where it was from, or what make or model, etc. Engine sounds like this always remind me of those good times with old school mechanics.
Took my NYS road test in the 1965 version . Inspector was terrified . Drove 100 yards , had me do one three point U turn then back 100 yards . He got out. I passed .
This is quintessential vintage 1960’s Ferrari….it’s amazing! Their v12s from this era sounded so good…..its a cacophony of petrol and carbon goodness……and i love it!
Man, that is one very special car. Looks like she drives like an absolute stunner. The steering, the shifting, the smooth power of that V12.. Damn, what I wouldn’t give to drive that beauty! Thanks Tedward.
Excellent (and thankyou for not talking all the way through....i went to an airshow once and had to move away from a bloke who took the opportunity to 'phone his mate during the P51 display. Maximum volume, you know the type.)
I owned one of those and yes I’ve been around for a while. The best sounding engine of any car I’ve ever owned. I sold it in 67 for 20,000 dollars which was a lot for the time. Haa ! The story you’ve heard a million times, oh my God what I could get for it now !!!!! But you know if i could get that car back I’d never even think of sell it again. It would be home where it belongs.
I thought I recognized the road you started out on. Used to drive it regularly to see a customer who is in the biotech park behind national grid. Cool to watch a local channel.
The 330 GT (Series 1) was the first vintage Ferrari I ever saw. It was in a deep burgundy with a beige interior, a little rough like this one, and it sounded magnificent.
One of my absolute favorite Ferraris, that is stunning. Even as a kid in the 70’s when everybody else was yelling 250 GTO, 330 P etc. At least dreams are free, I used to dream about pulling up to school in nice cars, as I jumped off the yellow and black express lol😂. At 16 in 82’ I did manage to nab a 77’KZ1000 with a Kerker on it, performance to match most any car on the road at that time. Although the penalty for a failure or crash or otherwise poor judgment is much higher.
Excellent video. Well tuned engine and a presenter who knows how to drive it and change gear. Also a Ferrari that oozes effortless cool with discreet styling and a glorious exhaust and intake sound at a time when Ferrari builders were artisans, were not paid a lot since labout costs in the 60s were cheap, and when the cars in my opinion had a lot more heart and soul, and were purely Italian designed and engineered for good or bad.
What a gorgeous car - I have been a fan of these '60s Ferraris since childhood and have a model of the similar 330GTC on my bookshelf; maybe the 2+2's don't have quite the panache of the GT's but for me this car would certainly be my choice if it were practical for me to own - unfortunately I live too far away from anybody who can service them and haven't the proper storage anyway. In the meantime I'll just roar around in my old Bimmer and dream, and keep watching excellent videos like this - very well done, Tedward - I shall subscribe.
Think of what it could be back in 66 compared to what was on the road. I mean, by this time the average car in Europe was barely a 30 to 50 hp car, even less sometimes. Coming from 4 cylinders 1100 or 1500 cc engines. In France, many cars were Citroen 2 CV or Ami 6 with some hellish torque of 40 Nm spited from a 600 cc 2 cylinders. Top speeds were roughly around 120 kph, 140-150 for the best normal cars. And this is so much above, sounded so spectacular, like a race car, by then, it was insane. Certainly more than a modern Ferrari compared to modern cars when a hot hatch output can be as high as 400 hp. And I'm an absolute lover of 812 Superfast which engine is probably one of the best piece of mechanic ever made.
Love the Ferrari, but those Massachusetts roads bring a lump to my throat. I've been stuck here in Texas so long I'd forgotten how beautiful New England is and how wonderful the back roads are. Time for a road trip with my Miata. Next Spring...
That was so well done and explained. Being a Marine the rough around the edges would drive me NUTS. If it was mine she would be ready for the showroom like back in the day. I love it, WHY ? Because I just restored a 1969 icon, 1969 AMC AMX XCODE GO PACK 390 with every available options. Want to know a Marine does to get her in shape, He finds a case of unopened R12 A/C THAT RUNS COOL. GOOD VIDEO BROTHER. NEAL

Yeah, I'll keep that in mind when I pick one up next week...
uum not everyones budget nice car but ..

How much does one of these cost ?

It's great to see these kind of cars with scuffs and miles on them! They're meant to be drvien and enjoyed!
like they are meant to be, my dream is to have a daily driven laferrari and make it the highest mileage LaFerrari on the planet
you do realize that this classical car will cost tons more than modern ones right?
@@ogrtd295 doesn't matter, what matters is the fact that the car built to be driven is being driven. Enzo would be proud.

These sounds are historic. You will never hear it again on actual or modern cars.
What’s the difference between an actual car and a modern car?
@@Not-a-bot222 nostalgia factor i guess lol. people mod the exhaust of current v8/v10/v12 and they sound just as good if not better

Downshifting isn't hard what do you mean..
This is how it should be!
@@applejuice9468 Hes talking about the nice rev-matching you can see in the videos. A good downshift isnt just a change to a lower gear.
No other RUclipsr brings us, the common peasants, this close to feeling like we’re experiencing a priceless classic as you do Tedward
The sound alone makes it worth watching.
Man, I love these 60s Ferraris. The sound and looks are so hard to match.
Now this is the real deal. Gotta love how the rev needle just dances around as well.
dancing to the music, of course!
I really like the silent parts of this video (not talking) and just hearing the car run.
showed my little brother one of your videos and now he’s addicted to your vids keep up the good work tedward 👍✌️
you're extremely consistent Mr Tedward. no bs just great reviews
Thanks Jackson!
here before this comment blows up
What a car, nothing beats that classic V12 Ferrari sound. Although I did get nervous in my chair when that truck passed you at 9:26 lol
You missed the track for 2 seconds
I love how the rev meter jumps when it catches the next gear that’s great! 😂
I swear I’ve never clicked on a video so fast in my life! Man, what a gorgeous car!
My dad had the 64 GTC. My sister wanted it when he died. Loved the review. Still love the car.
That sound! That glorious Italian sound!

Thanks, I had a 250 and this video took me back to what a thrill it was to drive that car.

That is a beautiful car, scuffs and all. It’s got stories to tell, and is ready to go places. I’d leave it just as it is.

ahead ? no
That Ferrari isn't a sports car, it's a musical instrument you drive.
This is probably the best sound a vehicle can make.

You noticed too! LOL
Ive got history with this model. great video. thank you.

I love the wood panel element a lot. Great car and sound. I grew up in Italy.

BEAUTIFUL Italian engineering... let's put a hemi in it
I can’t explain it, but I love a car with a starting procedure like this. It’s just joyfully mechanical.
I'm a Porsche guy too, but these historic Ferrari's hit different
Incredible sound, awesome video 👌
Thank you very much!
i got a heavy eargasm with that V12 sound
My goodness what a sound! Eargasm
Love the comparison with the DB4. That could have been elaborated. Also love the moose action.
Oh wow....you got my juices flowing my friend with this video...
These videos have to be the best car tests on the whole of the internet😀
Thank You!
It mustve been very exciting to be young, rich and famous back in the 60s. That car is beautiful
You know you're in for a good time when the floor pan has humps for the twin exhaust ;)
