Ferrari 288 GTO
-------------------------------------------
Although the car is a true beauty, I shot this Ferrari GTO (often referred to as Ferrari 288 GTO) only in part and from the back to give it a more "iconic" and graphic value.
The car's is an exotic homologation (thus the O for Omologazione) version of the Ferrari 308 GTB produced in 1984 through 1985.
The Ferrari GTO was built to compete in the new Group B Race series and a minimum of 200 cars were required for homologation. However as only Ferrari and Porsche, with their 959, entered, the series was soon abandoned leaving just the Group B Rally championship. The Porsche 959 (as the Porsche 961) only raced three times in Group B, but the 288 GTO never raced and all 272 cars built remained purely road cars.
