Grand Prix (dir. John Frankenheimer — 1966)
And the award for most badass gif of all time goes to…
0e3:
1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Competizione Speciale
This may be one of the most beautiful Ferraris I’ve ever seen!
Truth.

So awesome. Too bad the car is actually the ugliest thing I’ve seen on four wheels in a long time…
EDIT: WAIT WHY ISN’T IT GIF-ING??
It’s at that link for the next hour, and then somewhere else in the wilds of the intertubes….
But if you’re looking to kick off the 2012 racing season with 24 hours of sports cars (Ferraris, Aston Martins, BMWs, Audis, Camaros, Mustangs, Porsches, Mazdas, other Fords & Vipers) racing on the banking at Daytona, this is the way to do it. Crack a beer & kick back!
There’s something like 50 cars out there (fewer now that we’re a couple of hours in) on a comparatively small track so even now, three and a half hours in, everyone is all bunched up and likely to stay that way until late tonight. There’s always Porsche 911’s dodging speeding prototypes, which keeps it exciting for everyone.
Y’all can have your shiny new 599’s and Californias. I’ll take a 550/575 any day.
You can keep your aluminum chassis and carbon fiber whatsits. I’d like my Ferrari with a big V12 up front, bolted to a tubular steel-frame chassis, just like they made in the 1950’s.
I don’t need lights on the steering wheel or paddles behind it.* I don’t want adaptive aerodynamics or a million computers between me and the road.
I’ll take mine from the mid-90’s, just before they moved the seat to the left and put fenders on Formula 1 cars. It’ll still snap your head off.
