From Wiki, approx. 160k DS were sold worldwide (especially in France ofc).

Yeah, the F40 is really a symbol of Ferrari and doubtlessly the winner racing cars. The Testarossa is another myth.

How about the Enzo? That is also a symbol. It's quiet fast. It can go over 230 mph.

good one but i still think the F40 is great because it was the first car ever to break the 200mph limit

Yup, F40 was one of the first cars to break the speed record in the 1970"s. But now it's history. I don't think they might be people owning the F40 now. It's such an old car.

i know but dont you mean the 1980's because it was released in 1987 and i think older cars are more symbolic cos they are very rare these days

Oh yeah it is 1980's. I forgot :oops:. Ya you a re right. There are hardly any rare cars in this planet. You find them abandoned or damged or even burned. The older the cars, the more chances of problems. :(

I think I know Lamborghini's symbol. It's the Diablo. It is a very old car which made the lamborghini put their logo as a diablo. Then must have come out Murcielago and Gallardos. My Dad's friend owned a Diablo which he crashed it after a few months in a race track.

How can he afford another one? He bought the cars a few years before I was born. Countach is also another one. But mainly it is a Diablo. Thats according to the logo of Lamborghini. Im a little suprised, how come the older cars are the symbols of most of the manufactures? 8O

Me too. I think that is true. Like Lamborghini has the symbol according to the Diablo and the Bentley has the symbol according to the Flying Spur.
