Default Those Who Know. Know.

My wife and I have just returned from a fortnights trip around Italy including visits to those three exotics all ending in i. Think Modena, Maranello, Sant’Agata.
My daily driver is a 25 year old 75. My wife’s daily driver is a 23 year old 75. We’ve owned both for years and both have six digit mileages. A real testimony to the quality of these cars.
As soon as we got into my 75 which had been standing at the airport for the duration of our trip my wife immediately said “Smell the leather.” The walnut dash with those classic dials. The leather steering wheel.
Once driving home, without question, the comfort of those 75 blue leather seats exceeded anything we sat on during the trip and the knarl from the 2.5 v6 when you push it on a bit. Fantastic. You could say we missed the 75 a great deal. How much are these cars underrated? Like I say. Those who know, know.
