In 1965, while a student at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey CA, I had a 1965 MGB. I remember coming across a red 250 Lusso many times in Carmel. I always had the top down and more than once found myself following it and enjoying the sound of the exhaust and the smell of the fumes.
Please keep sharing these fantastic car’s ,the knowledge you share and passion you have really comes through, always look forward to the next video.thank you .
An absolute pleasure to watch and listen to you explain this gem in the 250 family. The noise alone is part of the price tag I say. I really appreciate when owners don’t overly restore these cars. I prefer to see / keep the exterior / interior original when possible. We don’t need plastic surgery, some visible mileage isn’t a bad thing! Would love to see a tear down on a 250 engine (unless I’ve missed it) Thanks Ian. Cheers Jason #jcr_cars
Nice share, thank you! The central bonnet vent on the Lusso were apparently factory sealed closed, I was wondering if any owners had perhaps modified them for purpose?

Love the way the tach dances in rhythm with the shifts.
What a fantastic car! No brand can compete with Ferrari when it comes to these GT cars!

Sadly in EU and USA very soon all gas cars will be illegal!!!!
Like the name says BEAUTIFUL ❤
Thanks for sharing such a great old machine! Love watching this channel
This automobile is the most beautiful example of Italian artwork and engineering existent, and it gets driven. And it's left hand drive to boot.

These beauties were, and of course still are, pure work of art! The Ferraris nowadays looks almost vulgar when you look these masterpieces!
Amazing content. Really enjoy your videos 👌
Fantastic videos thank you.
I love watching your Ferrari video . And what a stunning Ferrari 250 🥰👍
Beautiful car and you can tell how much it means to you, must stem from working at D-F"s back in the day!!!
More videos please 👍🇦🇺
Probably an odd question, but how's the interior noise level while driving in that Lusso, compared to the 275 GTB you've driven?
Lovely !
Nice car, not one I am familiar with. Wonder if it influenced the E-type design. I see some similarities.
The E-Type appeared in 1961, so slightly earlier.
Beautiful car 1964 not 1963 first one came out in 1962 for the Paris motor show and it came out officially in 1963
I know who has a warehouse full of old Ferrari parts and does not know who to sell them to
At 8 mins sounds like a 5 speed!
Late 1950's and 60's Ferraris have so much style and elegance with glorious small V12s. Todays cars are fat, ugly and vulgar by comparison.
