Quite like this reviewer on YouTube. Goes by the name of MotoMan.

Posted a great little piece on the Daytona and put it alongside the Ghibli.

To my eyes the original Ghibli still looks like a stunning car.

Thanks for the post, DD Classics have a Red RHD SS Ghibli for £300k so I think values are catching up. Went to see my LHD non SS (and a lot cheaper) car today which is under going restoration and its stunningly well designed car. Just need an engine now..

Is it only me who thinks that red suits the Daytona worse than blue?

Saw that boat in Port Grimaud back in '08, and the Daytona in blue/beige is simply stunning stunning stunning!

Hah hah.
Not sure when that episode of TG was filmed, most likely before I took that photo the reason why I noticed it...7 years ago, yikes!

I have always loved V12 engined coupes and the Daytona was my bedroom wall poster when I was a kid. I have seen many since and even been a passenger in one and I still love them. C&SC did a back to back review of a Daytona against a Ghibli not long ago and suggested that the Daytona was probably not worth the price difference although recently surge in Ghibli prices has reduced the gap.

One of the toughest decisions in my lottery win garage is 250 Lusso or Daytona - or maybe even both (I can dream) ;)

Love that classic ghibli. personnel opinion I don't think the new one does the modle any justice. Especially with a v6 diesel
