The Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2 unveiled

Both look very good.

These look to be phenomenal cars, albeit with two caveats:

1) As they are aimed at collectors, it is doubtful that any of these will ever be driven more than a few miles, which breaks my heart.

2) I see no mention of a manual transmission, and based on past precedence, it is unlikely to have one. This makes me sad, as Ferrari is trying to create a new car that harks back to times of yore, the need for a manual to truly make this an ultimate recollection of the past should be warranted, but I doubt it will be.

Of course, irrespective of my criticism, I certainly wouldn't turn one down....

You'd be hard pressed to get a manual car to a 0-62 below 3 seconds.

considering that you don't even get a windshield, this appears to be guaranteed

I sense Ferrari collector David Lee's blood pressure rising.
