@@hottiemcscottie5952at that time they probably weren’t as expensive. Especially considering that it didn’t have the original engine. Still incredible though
Man who ever owns this car is so lucky to afford it, IT SOUNDS SO GOOD, and the experience of driving such a barebone machine must be unparalleled compared to a modern supercar.
The most beautiful front engined car ever built (mid engined = Muira). More desirable than anything built in the last 50 years. Simpy sublime.... as your reaction demonstrates!
The giggling was funny! Awesome car..amazing that they can recreate it ..must be some wonderful engineering going on in that beautiful GTO building....thanks for the review Sam
Wonderful video. It expresses why I turned in my leased 2017 high tech modern Alfa Giulia sedan and bought a 20 year old 911. Not on the same level as this 250 SWB, but well within the same spirit and fun factor. Modern technology in cars turns us into automotive couch potatoes.
Cor, doesn't she sing! Love it. And with all these continuations you can actually use and enjoy them to their full potential without being in a constant state of worry and anxiety about breaking 60 year old - unavailable components!
Josh Nisker maybe, but the driving experience is far far mor amazing on the SWB for me. So the hole package is far better with the SWB (for me of corse)
Josh Nisker The SWB competizione is the best car i’ve driven...period. I have the amazing luck of being able to drive many many cars, but no car has ever transmitted su much and felt so right as the SWB. But the 300SL is a stunning car, beautiful. Did you know there are some very special 300SLs that where restomoded by AMG and Mercedes Benz with a modern engine inside with 400hp, and A/C. Not very engaging when you drive them but they become very very usable, almost a daily driver.
I need to comment, but these old Ferrari do the same thing to me, the sounds are euphoric, and they kinda scramble your brains a little. Thank you for the upload Sam.
What a great video - As genuine cars have gone beyond dream money, if I had a mere 800K for a car, this would be the top of my list! No doubt! I think you liked that more than the F8!
Sam, this is your one of the best reviews. Car is from another planet, of course, but your reactions were onest. So glad to watch it. Repeated couple times your downshift fragments) Thanks mate!
Giddy as a school boy. I am as well lol it really shows What you need in a car. Forget Sat nav, drinks holder. Wheel Through your fingertips, arse On a seat, and the best engine Money can buy. Bellisimo ❤
You tried hard Sam, but, there are no words for these kind of experience’s, the best that life has to offer in vehicle terms. I am the same, especially on really fast motorcycles, there are no words..........thanks for videos like this, GTO Engineering are exceptional at what they do and long may it continue, they are magicians to be able to recreate such engineering art and poetry..........wish very much to be able to afford a 250 SWB, in black with cognac leather, competition spec !
RHD version of this would be fantastic. Great video. Every time I see a car I think something different, I guess that’s the problem, no matter what you have, the question is; “what would/should I have”?
Great video and review Sam, only money prevents me from buying it and what a bargain with respect to an original.......the noise is amazing, you must have seen Derek Hill’s video in a 250 GTO, 7 minutes of bliss, thank you so much for this .....
I grew up in the 80s with the 80s attitude ‘can’t sit in my car - you’ll ruin the leathers’ is what I was told by a guy my brother knew! Right there & then I made it my goal to own a Ferrari - & I do. I egged myself on visiting showrooms & dealers until I could afford one. I keep to my promise that I’d let anyone drive my car as I don’t want to be like that guy! It’s only metal & money ❤️
Great video! Wow! The era when you actually drove the car. Now the cars drive you. I would have liked to hear her roar from outside the car before the drive. But thats just me. Thanks!
M8, I was absolutely cracking up with laughter and joy with yu there Sam!!! Sometimes there is too much talk when there is absolutely no need and this clip would be right up there in that regard. Those first few cackles killed me LOL 😂 Now to the car and in particular that engine and gearbox. Just wow!! 250 SWB always been one of my faves and after watching this I’m wondering how I can make a few mill sos I can get my self down to GTO and order me one pronto..!! I reckon if they ever need to do any marketing they only need ur clip Sam!! Because of yu, thousands more are aching to own this machine. Another thing, I’ve seen recently that they are recreating the Aston DB5 007 editions. Those are going for a kool 5mill or there abouts. To my mind it makes this Fezza look like an absolute bargain. If I had the choice between the two with the 250 a similar price to the Aston, I’d still choose the 250. With it at a fraction of the DB5 sticker, it’s a no brainer! Great work sam and all hale GTO engineering :)))
It’s as raw driving as it gets. The shifter is all hydraulic, the engine is a beast of raw power, the suspension, we’ll you’ll feel every bump, it’s all meant to be that be that way.
He starts out . . . I think I'd rather have mine in dark blue, The seating position is a little odd, Can't adjust the seats . . . accelerates for the first time and speechless mouth agape
You absolute legend 🙌 you lucky boy!! Would this car not be more like a million or 2 ?! Great video pure adrenaline and emotion 👌 👏 👍 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 🇬🇧
@lol I'm 6ft, it was ok but my legs were up by my ears. The seat was hard mounted but I think it might be able to go back a bit and then i'd spacer the wheel. Not optimum tho
The first factory dual purpose racing/roadcar was the Bugatti T35 in 1924 The last factory dual purpose racing/roadcar was the Ferrari 250SWB in 1959 Both can be bought new these days as perfect recreations to nut and bolt detail.
Giorgio Napoli It really is an experience you'll get nowhere else. The sounds, the vibrations, the view over that beautifully shaped front end, ... To really feel exactly as he did you'll have to try it yourself
I am sooooooo jealous. Come on lotto. How can they badge this a Ferrari? I guess they start with an old Ferrari do they? But you seemed to indicate the car was a new build. If they have Ferrari approval then it elevates this car somewhat more. I really hate you right now. How come others have so much fun and I'm stuck in a shopping trolley. Great vid and I love your response to the car. Pure unadulterated joy. :)
It’s what’s known as ‘a tool car’. It’s built completely of Ferrari parts, it just didn’t roll off the Ferrari factory floor. Ferrari actually buy parts from GTO Engineering for fixing and servicing classic Ferraris
I owned a comp. 1960 SWB in the 70's (#1807) and used it for my daily driver in LA. It had an engine out of a 1958 Testarossa!
U must be rich than
@@hottiemcscottie5952at that time they probably weren’t as expensive. Especially considering that it didn’t have the original engine.

Great to see someone genuinely enjoying a car so much they forget what to say. Nice one Sam! 👍
Forget about those modern supercars... All a real enthusiast needs is a classic Ferrari!
Yes. A car where skill counts.
Or a classic Porsche.
Those are the only V12 Ferraris worth getting in my perspective. The modern ones are too powerful, too big and too fast to be enjoyed on the road.
This is is not a classic. It´s a modern replica.
That Ferrari is amazing everyone needs one if it wasn't 800k
Jesus.....! I could feel the torque through my iPad! So jealous that you got to “aim” that thing down public roads. Great vid!

This review and your reaction is exactly as I hoped it would be. Sublime.
I had the same exact reaction. You just can’t explain it, you are just wowed.
The giggling was funny! Awesome car..amazing that they can recreate it ..must be some wonderful engineering going on in that beautiful GTO building....thanks for the review Sam
There is nothing in the world that beats the sound of an old school v12. Love the video mate

100%
Thanks for this video mate! As car people we could feel every bit of the emotions you were trying to convey, and that engine... oh my god!
I had goosebumps during the entire driving part. That sound ! A-MA-ZIng !
Quite possibly the best TH-cam video I’ve seen in some time!
🤣🙏🏻
A beautiful car, weighs 1,000 kg, has 300hp, an NA V12 with three pedals. Otherwise known as perfection!
You need this and an Eagle and a Porsche 550
The most gorgeous GT ever made!!
Marcelo S it is stunning but sits at #2 for me, right behind the 300SL Gullwing.
Josh Nisker maybe, but the driving experience is far far mor amazing on the SWB for me. So the hole package is far better with the SWB (for me of corse)
I agree. The SWB Ferraris are my favorite.
@@titolynch I’ve never driven either, so I’ll take your word for it!

Colombo 3.5 liter v12 is just heaven
I want one! Just shows what the moderns are lacking, despite their awesome tech!
Love the sound! That is what a driving experience should be! Thank you!
it's amazing to me how mechanical classic cars sound
I love your enthusiasm! Great to watch you enjoying it so much. It is what cars and driving is all about.
Absolutely!
Loved your video. Thanks for just being real and letting emotion take over. It's refreshing. And what a thing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve driven past this place a hundred times, just wish I had the money to go in!
To go in is free.... go have a look!
Sam Moores Cheers, Sam, maybe I will!
After watching your review I cannot think of a car I would rather have. To elicit that kind of response from someone.....amazing.
Video of the weekend :D ... amazing... thanks for sharing Sam
I need to comment, but these old Ferrari do the same thing to me, the sounds are euphoric, and they kinda scramble your brains a little. Thank you for the upload Sam.
Could not stop laughing 😂 watching Sam enjoying himself sooo much! That is living!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Before I got home I was actually pretty worried that there was just going to be a lot of blabbing and nothing else.
@@sammooresphoto but you know, in this case it what was needed). Because as you mentioned, how can you review such car in traditional way?
250SWB! My favourite car of all time, though not quite as pretty as the 300SL Gullwing in my view.
There’s absolutely nothing to dislike about this car in my view at least my
That smile on his face. no words needed.
I am stunned what car it is and you made one amazing video! Love it, thanks Sam and wish your youtube will start growing cause you desirve it!
Those specialist lightweight car makers seriously need to look at this type of retro design work with a modern engine unit and that WOULD sell.
absolutely, GTO are making a modern car to basically that formula now but it won't be the same as Ferrari doing it.
Giddy as a school boy.
I am as well lol it really shows
What you need in a car. Forget
Sat nav, drinks holder. Wheel
Through your fingertips, arse
On a seat, and the best engine
Money can buy. Bellisimo ❤
Really delightful to watch.. what a wonderful piece of metal
That was the most enjoyable video I've seen in years. It speaks for itself. Thanks man.
Wow.

Great video, just love your reactions, like a kid in a candy store.

Haha, 100%
Literally jaw dropping, his lower mandible almost detached, the degree of unhinging dictated by the exhaust note 💨 🎶
Amazing car. You should have gone to that location with your F40, imagine the two of them together..
That would have been wicked. F40 was in for a service and not sure the podcast gear would have fitted in too well 😂
@@sammooresphoto Time to get that all important roof rack :)
@@randomsurfer3963 there is a dude in my old neighborhood with a 430 with a bikerack on top of it and I will forever think that man is a legend
@@sammooresphoto you make room haha
They went from 500k to 800k fast...
Beautiful machine...perfect in black.
Great vid. Amazing car! Absolutely timeless
Kid-in-a-candy-store levels of happiness, great stuff
Great video and review Sam, only money prevents me from buying it and what a bargain with respect to an original.......the noise is amazing, you must have seen Derek Hill’s video in a 250 GTO, 7 minutes of bliss, thank you so much for this .....

Nice. I would take a SWB over a GTO all day long. Just like the looks better. Thanks.

What a thing, thanks for sharing Sam.

Loved the video Sam!
The look on your face... brilliant! 🤣
😂
Watched this epic ride 3 times today already, A W E S O M E 🤘🤘
Glad you enjoyed it!
That noise, that noise!!! No young man this is pure sound, music to hears, and absolutely not a "noise"!
haha, you are correct.
@lol I'm 6ft, it was ok but my legs were up by my ears. The seat was hard mounted but I think it might be able to go back a bit and then i'd spacer the wheel. Not optimum tho
That’s a hell of a car and a great podcast 🍻
Wow, just wow!! This is a special car, great video
Just found your channel and I love it
Welcome 👍🏻
Ferrari is the epitome of quality, speed and design!
The first factory dual purpose racing/roadcar was the Bugatti T35 in 1924
The last factory dual purpose racing/roadcar was the Ferrari 250SWB in 1959
Both can be bought new these days as perfect recreations to nut and bolt detail.
The giggles and smiles say it all! Sold!!!!
I need this in my life just to look at it everyday
The difference between technical perfection and soul.
This is a replica? Could have fooled me, it looks like a 1:1 exact copy....amazing engineering!
11:22 best bit 7000rpm pull!
Sam: I'm selling my F40, guess what I'm buying?!?
A Fab Car All The Best And The Team.
I think it’s fair to say you enjoyed driving that 👍🏻👍🏻😂
Very fair to say
It’s an absolutely stunning car ,it sounds magnificent!
Absolutely beautiful car
Sam.. You lucky bastard .. I’m jealous what a beautiful car 😊
What a gorgeous masterpieces
Awesome to see your reaction to the noise! I would be as giddy as a school boy too!
Such a stunning machine
Who won't fall in love with the finest and most fabulous Ferrari of all time?
always wonder if you could take a 350Z and retro fit it to look like this?...the shape is pretty much the same
A sports car must provoke emotion!
If I ever bought one, It would have to be purple, the same purple as Enzo's famous pen
Would have really loved to have more info about it and a little bit more of an explanation of why it was so hilarious to drive...
Giorgio Napoli It really is an experience you'll get nowhere else. The sounds, the vibrations, the view over that beautifully shaped front end, ...
To really feel exactly as he did you'll have to try it yourself

Incredible 👏🏾
Absolutely perfect.
Awesome car! £850,000 but would be so cool to own! 😎
Wow! I loved this video! What engine is in there? Thanks for sharing this
That sound! YES PLEASE!!!
Simply amazing, in black is very cool👍🔝👍!!!
A sound to die for
i love mine, its like being in a jet plane,
How opening the hood (bonnet) to see the engine, essence of a Ferrari.
is this the car Ted Gushue made photo's of in LA?
You need to find the world's longest tunnel!
If I could have any Ferrari this would be it. It will never happen, which makes me sad, but oh what a dream.
Do you like everything that's left hand drive?
😂 most definitely not but anything new that’s LHD only is probably quite extravagant
I can't say it's the MOST beautiful car, because there are so many beautiful cars. But this 250 SWB is beautiful in a unique and especially cool way.
yeah it's wicked
NOW we're talkin'
