Given what we know about Ferrari designations, a 375 model is a 4.5 liter V-12 (375cc x 12 cylinders.) We've seen Willie Day's 375MM Spider. I haven't covered the 375s and other larger-displacement Ferraris as they were almost all competition models.
There were, however, a few exceptions: Italian Roberto Rosselini commissioned a special 375 for his girlfriend and future wife, Ingrid Bergman and that was painted a special color named 'Grigio Ingrid' which remains available on Ferraris to this day. The other outstanding exception I can think of is the 375 Plus (5-liter V-12) cabriolet built for King Leopold III of Belgium and delivered in 1955.

Not particularly cool or special, but not something you'll see too often..

I agree. We're used to seeing them on this board, but every time I drive the car somewhere people are like wow, that's a special looking car. I love the fact that there aren't a lot of M2's running around.

It's not the point if we are talking as car collectors, but there is another point here. We, as car enthusiast, live in a great time. The price/performance of the cars we get to buy and drive in 2023 is simply awesome. We are very lucky indeed to have the choices we have. |

I was with my family at a car show last summer and there were three M2's. White, black, and that same blue color as your car. I never see them around so crazy to see three all in the same spot. Currently, there are four M2's for sale where I am locally. I guess they are around but never seen.

I was a kid in the '50s and I've always had a fondness for the '50s and '60s American cars. For years, I was tempted to fill my 3rd spot in the garage with a classic American muscle car. I never did find the right car. Each one I drove looked good and sounded great but everything else about them fell short. I finally gave up and just enjoy looking at them instead. Fond memories are good enough for me. |

The car was in great condition and drove fine. She kept it through college and eventually sold it for a good price. Glad she sold it. I don't regret getting it for her even with all its shortcomings (lack of modern features), because she was and is a very responsible person and never had a problem with it, except for a worrying father. |

But just a couple of years ago I had the occasion to shoot 12 of those cars in one day. They didn't need but 15 shots of each of them, and the guy was ultra busy, so I just drove each of them a few blocks away to the location, shot it, then drove it back. I was astounded at how different each one was, and they were all 1963-1967 cars. There were 327 cars, 427 cars, side pipes, convertible, you name it. But they were all so different. There was one 1964 convertible that drove so damn nice, I wanted to buy that car right then and there. So now I just reserve judgement until I actually drive each car, because you never know how it's going to hit you, even if it's supposed to be the same as all the rest, it's not. |
