Ferrari Testarossa

... and the impact that that had on youthful me watching incredible racing scenes with a 917.

It just, I don't know, uh, there, there's just something about putting it in that, in that space and being exercised in that way that just seems to me to be particularly special, and I don't think anyone's too bowled over by Ferrari boxer or Testarossa engines, are they? I don't know.

Not to the same extent, no.

No.

I'm also in my 50s, so I'm a Magnum PI generation.

A little Testarossa.

I say PI because that's the current, yeah.

Now, Miami Vice went to the Testarossa.

after the Daytona was

blown up.

And the Testarossa, I think, is awesome because whenever there's one out at the show, I'm like, tell me you're in the 80s without telling me you're in the 80s.

And they're like, oh, because of the color of the dashboard.

I don't fit into it.

I don't fit into a Ferrari Testarossa.

And I tried and I really wanted one, but it's, it's absolutely okay.

Right.

What was the classic Ferrari? I mean, you got...

Oh, the Ferrari Testarossa.

Those felt... like connected to cars those seem like cars these things seem like weird spaceships and i'm not into them not in the lines not into any part of it to be quite frank you convinced me i'm already out like isn't that true like the kuntosh and the the kuntosh wasn't that different it was like a degree removed from a porsche like yeah yeah and this thing is so far removed from any other car as to not be a car.

Right.

I feel like Steve would have been happy about this, is the Ferrari 12-cylinder.

Oh, yeah, the Testarossa.

I think it's actually called the 12-cylinder.

Oh, oh, oh.

Uh, it is, I mean, oh, it, you can, it's, it's a, it's a, it's just a concept car, uh, designed by Pininfarina, and it was unveiled at the 1968 Geneva Motor Show.

Uh, it is, there's, so there's strakes in the side of it that are, you can see where the later '80s Testarossa strakes came from.

Yes, indeed.

It is, and it, the strakes go all the way from the back of the rear wheels, all the way around the rear end of the car.

There's actually a story about that.

A guy on Silver State, early Silver State before I went, A guy balled up a Testarossa.

He insisted, you know, these are the tires.

It came with these tires.

It's the AW11.

It's the poor man's Ferrari Testarossa.

It is a great car.

Kitty, I think I read once that your first car was a yellow Mini Moque.
