True.

The difference is:

It must be a recent trend then, because Ferraris from the past always had at least 4 tail lights. Also, if we are going to talk about front-engined GT's, I'd rather have the old 512 or 550.

I was always quite partial to the 575. Wasn't that basically the same lineage as the 550 though????
