    Maybe there's a reason its 1 of 1... it's super ugly. Reminds me of the "diarrhea brown" Mavericks of the 70's.

    It's not a sports car colour IMO.

    Reason why being too individualized isn’t a good thing. Who thought it would be tasteful?

    It's not for me, but I didn't care for it on McQueen's Ferrari either. Nor did I care for the green Mustang, come to think of it.

    Most of the time the beautiful styling of a Ferrari could pull off unusual colors........not this time.

    Not a fan. But times change. I remember working in a custom paint shop in the 70's. A customer brought us a fairly new (maybe even new, can't remember) Porsche 911 in yellow. He wanted a complete color change to a rootbeer brown metallic that was really hot at the time... And we did the color change of course.

    Maybe years from now, that "1971 Marone" will be a hot. And rare. :D

    You know how some are about having what no one else has...

    In Italian 'Marone' is a straight translation to 'Brown'

    Gotta love how the most basic of Italian words sound exotic in English

    I think what makes it even worse is that the interior is also a brownish color.

    Whoever spec'ed that car must've been on drugs. (or a fan of bodily excrement).

    The good thing is I'm sure someone can get a good deal on it and wrap it.

    This car proves that “rare” is not necessarily the same as “valuable.”

    A Root Beer color with a ton of metal flake would be the only possible version or Birch Beer, even better. Our cars have the lines to make that work but you gotta be brave. Some how it would just seem better on a 30s pickup truck or Business coupe.

    Green works as a variant of British Racing Green. The darker colors that is.

    I think it’s kinda cool actually. But it does need a new pair of shoes (black) and some black accents. Possibly lowered a few inches...

    I don't think I've ever owned a brown car (for a reason) and don't think the color looks much better on this one.
