\"\"<\/a>\u201cBella figura\u201d is Italian for \u201cbeautiful figure.\u201d Winston Goodfellow uses the phrase in the title of the section of his book, \u201cFerrari \u2013 Road and Racing,\u201d on the 250 GT\/L, aka Berlinetta Lusso. Preston Lerner, in his book \u201cSpeed Read \u2013 Ferrari,\u201d says about the 250 GT\/L, \u201cThe reason it\u2019s remembered so fondly is because it is one of the most beautiful Ferraris ever built. No, check that. It is one of the most beautiful cars\u00a0<\/em>ever built.\u201d \u201cOne\u201d of the most beautiful? What else would be running for that title? Alfa Romeo 8C 2900 B, certainly; Jaguar E-Type, for sure; Cobra Daytona Coupe, hmmm. All have potential, but none can match the beauty of the Lusso. One reason that it is \u201cthe\u201d most beautiful is because it has stood the test of time \u2013 it is as desirable in 2019 as it was in 1963. The Berlinetta Lusso creates a level of lust in the hearts of car aficionados that is matched by no other automobile. It is a work of art. And we haven\u2019t even gotten to the \u201cluxury\u201d part – \u201cLusso\u201d means \u201cluxury\u201d in Italian.<\/p>\n
