16:40 - The last recorded sale of a 250 GTO (to my knowledge) was around $70 million in 2018, and it is currently the second most expensive car ever sold (behind a 1-of-2 Mercedes-Benz "Uhlenhaut" coupe). I got lucky enough to see two of them in person at the Cavallino, absolutely gorgeous vehicles.
I want the GT version of the F50, how much is that :D
one sold in 2023 for $51.7 million with auction fees
@@gabrielbehailu4 That was a 330 GTO, not the same thing
Real price was $80 million, 70 million euros. There're reports of 250 GTOs that sold privately after this $80 million one for more than $100 million.
The Enzo is a great car for sure, but underneath it is not a Formula 1 car with road car panels. In fact, the older F50 is more akin to an F1 car with an F1-derived engine and bolted to the tub as a structural member of the car.
I want the GT version of the F50 :D
What I came here to say
Technically speaking, underneath the panels the Enzo is a multiple championship winning GT1 Maserati :)
22:15 The Ferrari in Bad Boys 2 was actually a 575. A 550 was used for specific scenes, including the one shown here where Will shoots the villains.
Yep 👍
Didn't know thaf
@@pedrocampinopt You can recognize it by looking at the wheels for example.
4:50 the cars were originally black but a lot of scenes were filmed at night so the production team had them painted white to stand out.
I believe the Ferrari 308 GT4 was the first badged mid-engine V-8 the predecessor before the 308. At first, these were badged as Dino's but in 1976, they got a Ferrari Badge
The 308 GTB/GTS was released in ‘75, so I believe it did technically beat the GT4 to having the Prancing Horse, but I believe some GT4s were badged as Ferraris before then by some dealers.
@JWinHD the 308 GT4 was introduced in 1973
The service bulletin changing the badging on the 308GT4 is dated July, 1975.
@joelbelser5093 I'm aware, and honestly, that's just semantics. The 308 GT4 was Ferrari's first mid engined V8, which was the premise of Roger's first comment.
Could watch this gentleman verbally breakdown on and off screen vintage vehicles all day long. The supporting visuals were excellent. Hats off!
wrong
Fyi, He was wrong about multiple facts on multiple models
Cant wait for the new Ferrari movie. Hopefully they do the story and history justice.
Montezuma era??? WTF !!! Moctezuma ( not Montezuma )was an aztec emperor but you mean Luca Cordero di Montezemolo
I caught this too.
I’ve been a fan of the Mondial since the move ‘Weird Science!’. I liked the look of that four seater convertible. Though, I. Did prefer the Porsche 928. These days I own an ‘87 Carrera. I could never afford the cost, nor the maintenance prices. Thanks for the video.
(Ferrari prices, maintenance. & parts)
Given my druthers I’d have a 928 with a personalized plate that read WYATT, and that’s not even my name!
Love the mondial he's crazy.
"Are you looking at the rpm's?" "No. I think I'm looking at about fifty tickets"
The new Ferrari movie isn’t about the history of Ferrari really. It only covers the fairly tragic year of 1957 which is a rough one for Enzo.
Tony Curtis driving a Dino in the ‘70s show “the Persuaders “!
But that was a Dino, like you say. Not a Ferrari.
Bro is a Collector car dealer and is calling the Testarossa engine a boxer 12. Anyways, guys, if you wanna learn more about the real Ferrari's history, don't watch any of this films, just read books (Enzo Ferrari wrote some).
Don’t forget how 250 GTOs were not really successful 😂
@@richardtodorov and the 355 was the second with the F1 gearbox (I've always known that it was the first road legal one)...
@@rogeeeferrari another ignant … how about using the internet to learn the difference
@@rogeeeferrari is inaccurate. That engine is a V12 with a flat angle. It works as a V engine and not as a boxer, just look at how the rods are mounted on the crank.
@@rogeeeferrari and what I just said? That engine works like every other V engine but with a flat angle. So it's NOT a boxer. The legend that BB stands for Berlinetta Boxer exists because the engineers who projected the 512 would dedicate that model to the beauty of Brigitte Bardot but they had to find a "fake name". In fact, by tradition, Berlinetta is the definition of a Ferrari with the front engine and the 512 was a mid engine. Next time study first.
The 355 was a GTS
Great video. But you missed “Gumball Rally”. Ferrari vs. Cobra.
If they ever discuss “pretentious goobs” in movies this guys getting the call
And then some for sure with his nose in the air!
He looks the part, sure. But, going off the way he talks about the first Ferrari in Ferris Bueller, he seems pretty alright. Doesn't seem too uptight about things.
The first time we see the Daytona, in the Miami Vice pilot, Don Johnson is sitting in a real one reading a newspaper. The car is onscreen for less than 20 seconds, never to be seen again.
"Montezuma Ferrari"? you meant Luca Di Motezemolo. Maybe
@@diabolusvincitstill very wrong i also thought it was jarring. its pronounced closer to “monetsemolo” not montezumola
You missed 1966 film Grand Prix. They were mock ups also, but very believable and central to the plot. Great video, Thanks!
What he really wants to show off is his fancy watch. It’s always clearly visible in the wide shots. Don’t let that sleeve cover up the Rollie!
You actually helped him, atfer reading your comment I am always looking at the watch, which i didn't even see before.
Same here. Weird science 16 candles. I used to have a 87 944s and later a 88 911. All gone now 😥
Enzo was such a big fan of Miami Vice he personally gave Don Johnson his own Tesstarossa
355 was the 1st gen of cars with F1
4:32 NOT A BOXER 12!
And that's just one example of various false information, he spread and don't get us started about mispronunciations of vatious names throughout the video. Respect for rocking the Stone Island jumper badgeless though.
@@infuelsion4597I think it’s pretty common for people to call it boxer because Ferrari called the 512 a boxer. Technically the testrossa has a 180 degree V12 not a flat 12!
@@MrIncognito-tm8he We agree, BUT it's still wrong.
@@MrIncognito-tm8heyes but he is an « expert » and no expert should be mistaking something like that
The 360 Spider featured in 2 Fast 2 Furious were just a proper impounded car. Shown for short screening period.
T punched the glass to get the package 😂
Nice watch 👌🏽
The supra is more valuable than the ferrari? Excellent vid! This has compelled me to read more about cars.
well the first Fast and Furious movies had a large impact on the car scene. Owning a Supra also became the dream for many kids then. Now the kids are all grown up and want their dream car. But everyone drove theirs and many modified theirs, so finding one in mint conditions with no modifications becomes a very sought after car.
The 308 GT4 was the first mid-engined V8 Ferrari, not the 308 GTB.
EXACTLY!
The Dino 308 GT4 you mean? He says “the first Ferrari badged mid engine v8”… and if you want to get technical it would’ve been the 208 GT4
@@MrIncognito-tm8he he also said the 355 was the second F1 transmission car, he is a little inaccurate
@@jameswogan5820why was that wrong?
@@MrIncognito-tm8he it was the first.
Hey, GQ! If this hack is what you consider knowledgable, then I am an astronaut flyer guy. I swear. I will come in and talk about how high up space is and how stars are made of hairspray and chalk.
New Leaf - 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 SN 09445 driven around the NYC area.
Weird Science? Mondial.
Resemblance: Louis Del Grande in Scanners and Seeing Things?
I think by the time Enzo Ferrari put his beloved dead son's name on his first mid-endine road car, the Dino 246, he must have been okay with the concept.
I wish he reviewed "Gone in 60 seconds"
Bro missed the crash scene with the 355 in The Rock which I'm pretty sure was a replica. Plus In Bad Boys ll there were both a 550 and a 575 they kept switching back and forth between, look at the wheels.
You missed the opportunity to comment on a genuine 365GTS when you passed on _The_ _Gumball_ _Rally._ Sure, it was "B" movie, but that was A+ car.
And LeMans has just one long straight - Mulsanne
Without a doubt, the most interesting thing I've viewed on YT in months. Nicely done GQ.
I thought that was a Datsun z car also
Demi Moore was in that scene with the Enzo? Huh, didn't notice.
I grew up wanting a Ferrari. When I became an adult, I bought a Porsche.
Gone in 60 seconds is the best
Did GQ ask Jake to remove his Stoney patch? 🤔😂
How can you give information about something when every other word, you say is sort of sort of sort of?
24:13 "Only 400 were made". *_Allegedly_* 😉
you forgot The long goodbye
Brilliant breakdown by someone who actually knows what he's talking about
@@MidnightDriveToNowhere spread a lot of stupid statements and false information. See comment
Not quite actually. He got a lot of subtle details very wrong.
@@infuelsion4597 quite the opposite of subtle to claim 250 GTOs were unsuccessful. Stop being lenient to bs
He actually got a few things wrong. Not something you want in an "expert"
@@V12carlover a lot more than a few, see comment
1962 Ferrari 330 LM / 250 GTO sold for $52 million Private sale 1963 250GTO several years ag traded hands for a bit ovet 70 million dollars. In 1974 i looked at buying a 1957 Ferrari 250TR in Seattle The dealer was selling it for $10,000 Another guy bought it Now worth well over $60 million 😢
Don't beat yourself up, you'd have sold it by the time it got to $300k anyway
21:15 Yea, even with the gated shifter that clutch was toast after less than a year, and don't tell me I didn't know how to drive a stick I've had 911's since I got my license that clutch was just garbage! My stepdad got a Ferrari F355 Spider in like 96 I think, he traded it in when the clutch went out. He actually raced for Porsche in the 70's and 80's, which was the reason my first car was a 911. I was given his 1981 Porsche 911 Turbo when I got my license in 1987 she had like 600 original miles on her when he signed her over, I kept her as my daily driver until 1999 when she was stolen and totaled in a high speed chase with the police... That said the Enzo @ 23:45 is one of the sexiest cars ever made in my opinion and dear Gods in Valhalla was that car a beast!!!
Where's David Lee?
David Lee. what could be worse than a Ferrari collecting Rolex dealer?
Oh you wanted someone who knows Ferraris!
They used P4 replicas in Ferrari vs Ford..and the Ferraris in LeMans were rebodied Lolas..Enzo refused to let them use the real thing...about 10% was in race footage.
what watch he is wearing?
rolexGMT
“More than you can afford, pal… Rolex! “😂
Super cool dude but one thing where he went wrong... Wagons are cool! 😅
For dads and soccer moms, sure...
@@staLkerhuask any petrol head that isn't a "bro" about wagons and everyone will say they are cool.
Dude, I think no one will convince me about that. Wagons are the ugliest things after SUVs. Their only quality is utility and comfort, which isn't equal with coolness. Big *ss ugly boats will NEVER be cool. Coolness is beauty, low weight, great handling and steering feel... @@ovisatma
Does he know he looks like Tobias Funke
and Rush???
Nice GMT
23:53 ferrari build more than 500 Enzo according to vinWiki and only 1 was without the roof that was totaled in a crush 😮
National lampoon Vacatoin?
Testarossas have 380 bhp; a new Mustang has 460 and will smoke one like it was standing still. In handling as well.
22:19 in bad boys 2 the ferrari 550 maranelo was the will Smith private car because ferrari refused to give them the car ,because of that was a real car 😮
Really enjoyable video. I could listen to Jake talk about cars all day!
You guys missed the ultimate movie: gone in 60 seconds..
His mouth move like rami malek
should of mentioned REDLINE
Kinda sad overdrive isn't on here
This so called “expert” doesn’t know nearly as much as he pretends to know.
How is the 328 "three times the car" as the Mondial 3.2? -- same drivetrain, Mondi has more headroom and arguably better handling. 328 is more beautiful, of course. But the Mondial is a Ferrari you can actually drive. And maintain yourself, without worrying about your "investment."
They are not TS, they are GTS
While I adore the front-engine Ferraris, I'll always have a sweet spot for the 308/328s. I think they are STILL the prettiest mid-engined Ferraris ever made.
3:50 see Justin beiber and 50 cent for examples
Is it me or does this guy look like Taron Edgerton in divorced dad makeup?
This guy needs to do more videos like this,superb knowledge 👍
wrong
He got a few things wrong
@@V12carlover a lot more than a few, see comment
Agreed, said no one, face for radio
Oof... He actually got facts wrong about almost every model.
More videos with this guy!
he don't sound like he knows what he's talking about
he doesn't
He breaks down Ferraris in movies? That's a very specific job. I had no idea someone was employed to do that in films. I would have guessed that an ordinary mechanic could do it but apparently not.
If that job existed, he definitely would not be qualified. Wrong and ignorant on so many accounts.
@@richardtodorov cheer up, Richard.
@@teddieteds9913 you’re welcome
Obviously that’s not a job. He’s just an exotic car dealer who, in this video, happens to be analyzing Ferraris in movies. It’s okay if media literacy isn’t your strong suit.
@@francissanto12 obvious indeed. So obvious in fact one might realise it was sarcasm. It's OK if English comprehension isn't your strong suit.
If Dahmer became a car dealer
“Before they had engine size regulations” Again, NOPE
colin robinson knows his stuff
P4 > 250 by a W I D E margin.
JAKE is the best!
Im pretty sure this guy likes to play with stick shifts not only in cars but also in the bedroom
Your Ferrari « expert » still has stuff to learn. 0/10 on the F355 to start with
Why is the host in a boring garage instead of his fancy showroom?
I like this video but boy did he get alot of stuff wrong... the 250 GTO wasnt successful in racing?? wtf??? is he insane?? and also he got Luca's name wrong... which may in itself not seem that bad but he was Enzos successor and had a HUGE part in making the brand what it is today
the testarossa is not a racecar lmao it's a mid engine luxury car
He pronounced it Correctly
What an Expert.... Calls Testarossa a boxer and 250 GTO a fluke....
He seems very smug
he's also wrong on quite a lot of stuff.
I looked at a Ferrari 308 a few years ago at a reasonable price of around 39K, but when I sat in it, I saw all Fiat switches, just like in my junk 128 Fiat, and thought, no way am I going to buy an expensive to-fix fancy looking always breaking Italian car.
Which switches were Fiat?
6:35 - "rosso corsa" is "red race", not "racing red".
Racing red is correct . You’re not translating the words in exact order
@playboyv12 - "you're not translating the words in exact order" Okay buddy 👍
It’s racing red in English.Rosso scuderia isn’t red stable,it’s stable red.
Mondial T is not the worst ferrari made it is cool as
"expert"
Expert 🤣🤣🤣
Yikes on butchering Luca di Montezemalo's name
Who cares. People have different tongues. Can you pronounce a Kazakhstan or Russian name properly? That's what I thought.
Montezemolo*
Do americans really call them Testarosa instead of Testarossa? Its not Rosa, its Rossa...
they forgot back to the future ,bullit , mad max , and knight rider
Kitt was a Pontiac,mad max drove a ford,back to the future had a delorean
He mixed Montezemolo with Montezuma….😂😂😂 this is gross…
Sorry but the 250GTO was hugely succesful
How so ?theres 33 of them made and they were sold as used race cars
ANUSTART
Yup. This guy is definitely a typical Ferrari driver. Looks and sounds like them through and through.
How can an expert call a Testarossa a Testarosa? A joke.The rossa part has two s'es.
It’s pronounced test a Rosa,not test a Ross a
