Did the 512 you saw have a "scar" toward the rear drivers side?

My fav ferrari of all time is the 355 challenge stradale. I'd take it over a freakin enzo. People call me stupid yes I know, but the 355 sounds better than all the other ferraris.

512 TR is a testarossa.

I love the 512 TR too... Its one of my favorite Ferarris, along with the 512 BBi.

The 512 TR wasn't really in line with the Testarossa name, though. The original Testarossas were inline fours.

I know the 512 is technically a testarossa. When I went to the ferrari dealership they mentioned it was the newer and last edition of the testarossa and anyone who owned one wouldn't dare let you call it a testarossa as it apparently was some newer addition of the car with much more power.

Still a very nice car!
