This Ferrari 275 is Achingly Gorgeous

Some consider the Ferrari 275 the most beautiful car ever built. People who might agree include: actor Steve McQueen (who owned a 275 GTS, 275 GTB/4 and a 275 NART Spyder), actor Nicholas Cage (who used to own two 275 GTB/4s), former racer, Ferrari CEO, and GM of Scuderia Ferrari Jean Todt, actresses Sophia Loren and Catherine Deneuve each owned one too. Director Roman Polanski bought one new, as well, rumored to have been for Ms. Sharon Tate. Even jazz legend Miles Davis owned one!

Perhaps you could argue that the 250 GTO is prettier or maybe the 250 SWB. Whatever your preference though, there is no denying the classic Pininfarina proportions and perfect stance the 275 possesses. And the light blue hue imparts a classic look that almost belies the nature of the monster engine lurking under the hood. Cars like this are the essence of Ferrari–simple and elegant.
