September 1959
What We Said: “The feel of the shift lever in action is without peer. . . . Response to the exhilerator pedal is always smooth even at such low revs as 1000 rpm in top gear. . . . Our criticism of the Ferrari 250GT is that it seems to be still too much a special; as it were, a pseudo –road car designed to cash in on the Grand Prix reputation. It’s a lovely reputation, but in some respects we can’t say the same for the car. . . . Lest anyone think the millennium has arrived, we must report that [this Ferrari] is far better suited to the race course than anywhere else.”
