    yes, I have now both "74" :D

    Mine is a 2016, ex BBT Team Asia. It started with 42 for the GT3 Cars and 38 for the GTE Cars. Now we are in 44xx for the GT3 Cars

    This car was never built as a GT3. It only uses a GT3 number/vin.
    The only “GT3” that never was a GT3 :)

    Now, if Ferrari could only figure out what the real engine specs of their GT3 / GTE / evo cars are. :confused: Their web site has inconsistent info – and some information is outright nonsense.

    On THIS page (you go to the “Technical Specifications” first, and in there look at the engine specs), the GTE + GT3 have 3,996 cc, down to 3,902 cc for the GT3 Evo:


    However, on THIS page:
    https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/auto/488-gt
    • the GT3 suddenly has 3,902 cc (which matches the quoted bore & stroke figures).
    • the GTE cites the same 3,996 cc figure as the other pages – but the bore and stroke figures they quote clearly compute to 3,902 cc for 8 cylinders.
    So the manufacturer just can’t get it straight what cylinder bore and stroke (or engine displacement) the 3 different configurations REALLY have.
