1. 250 GTO: Actually designed for GT racing, this rare car has amazing performance for when it was built and with that old school body it is a great addition to any Ferrari collection. With a V-12 engine, this car has a lot of power as well as the tight old hand built feel that you can expect from a 60's car. Because they're so rare now, however, you won't be able to own one without paying around $10 million.
2. 365 GTB: This car in the early 70's proved that front-engine cars were not dead. Though it has trouble in low gears, this car is amazing when going high speeds. It's a racing car for the general public that can handle a lot of mileage and is jokingly called "a truck" because of how it drives.
3. F50: In 1995, this car came onto the scene combining elements of the F40 and Enzo. It gives an amazing driving performance and easily reaches 200 mph. With its engine based on Formula One, you know this car has a lot of power but its light design also gives it amazing acceleration.
4. Enzo: Named after the company's founder, Enzo Ferrari, this car released in 2002 quickly became Ferrari's strongest car. Considered the first "next generation" sports car, it includes such features as a computer operated rear wings for stability and special traction control. These features are not allowed in Formula One racing.
5. F40: Produced from '87 to 1992, this car was Ferrari's fastest car and most powerful car for years, earning the title "world's fastest street legal production car" from its creation to 1989. This car was produced when Enzo Ferrari was 90 years old. It was the last car he commissioned.
6. 246 Dino: In 1968 the Dino was released. With that attractive 60's spy car look, it is a great addition to the Ferrari collection. Technically not considered a "Ferrari" because it was designed with only 8 cylinders instead of the standard Ferrari 12, it was considered its own separate line of less expensive sports cars. Today, it is considered as much a Ferrari as any other car on this list.
7. 275 GTB/4: Introduced at the Paris Motor Show in 1966, this car was the first Ferrari to no be offered with wire wheels. With max speeds of 165 mph, this car is considered a marvel for its time. New technology made this car drive smoother and with less vibration than previous models and it looks good to boot.
8. 360 Challenge Stradale: Starting in 1999 the 360 series included the Spider, Modena, and of course the Challenge Stradale. This last model was a lighter version of the Modena with drastically improved handling. This cars were V8 and designed for drivers on the road, not as racing cars.
9. 166MM Inter: From 1948 to 50, the Inters were produced, leading the way as Ferrari's first luxury automobile. Because of its success, Ferrari's name was put on the map and it has remained right in the center ever since. With a V12 engine even back then, this car had the power of a sports car with the looks of a Royce.
10. F355: Build from 1994 to 1999, this car predated the 360 as a V8 sports car for general consumers. Using a slew of new technologies, it was a car that made a leap forward as far as handling, sound, and (many say) great looks.
