newVideoPlayer("/Ferrari8mm.flv", 494, 400,""); This vintage 8mm film brings us back to a time when a classic Ferrari was something you actually drove and had fun with, not something you locked up in a bank vault-like garage. Titled "The Great Putdown," it's no over-produced commercial shilling for Shell . Instead, it has a star-studded cast of Ferraris including a 250 California Spyder and a 250 GTO . Taking place on famous winding bends of Mulholland Drive in the Los Angeles area, the film has a raw edge that perfectly captures a golden era of motoring. [via YouTube ]

So some drunk Canadian teenager peed on a Ferrari. Usually that wouldn't merit coverage — we're sure 90% of the world's Ferraris have been urinated on by inebriated teenagers at some point in time. But this one involved urination caught on video, posted on Flickr, then YouTube, and has received such an outrageous response on message boards like FerrariChat that local police have launched an investigation not only into the teen's actions, but also to protect him from what they see as a real chance of violent revenge from forum fan-boys. The clip shows "Gibby," obviously inebriated, releasing a pretty pathetic stream of urine onto the side of a 360 Spyder, apparently left overnight in a mall parking lot after its owner lost his keys. Upon discovering the video, members of FerrariChat were able to locate the culprit's Facebook page and subsequently his full name, contact information and contact details for his employer, who they've since harassed with...

Lots of people daydream of being part of Scuderia Ferrari , but the closest mere mortals can really get to living the dream is plunking down some serious coin for a Ferrari FXX . So if you're looking for a slightly cheaper way to play dress-up Formula One , perhaps you should consider joining the Scuderia Ferrari Club in Italy and entering their soap box racing league. galleryPost('ferrariboxen', 3, 'I Bought Two Boxen Of Doughnuts'); newVideoPlayer("FerrariSoapBox.flv", 494, 400,""); Sure the racers are powered only by gravity and ingenuity, but they do get to run on real race tracks. The first round launched the series this past weekend at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari at Imola. Though none of the racers are allowed help or input from real Ferrari engineers, it doesn't stop the soap boxes from wearing Scuderia shields. With gas price panic the way it is nowadays, we wouldn't be surprised if this was actually the first step in a development...

newVideoPlayer("FerrariGTsound.flv", 494, 287,""); We just told you about the new sound clips released of the soon coming Ferrari GT , but since some of you may be using some sort of strange internet browser that inhibits you from listening at Ferrari GT Countdown , we figured you'd like it if we provided you with the teaser clips here. Like we said, it's gonna be a baby Ferrari love-fest as that countdown clock keeps ticking closer to zero. [ Ferrari GT Countdown ]

newVideoPlayer("ferraridinofiorano_Jalop.flv", 493, 410,""); You've already heard about the upcoming baby Ferrari. A lot. Though we're not sure if it'll be called Dino , F149 , California GT , or something else. What we do know is that we're told we can expect it to expose itself in about two weeks . And now, we may also know what it looks and sounds like in motion around Ferrari's Fiorano test track. Is that a V8 we hear screaming through the tailpipes?[ YouTube via autoblog.nl ]

newVideoPlayer("FerrariNewishNose_gawker.flv", 494, 413,""); We hear the "breathing hole" on the nose of the new Ferrari F1 car will, in addition to providing a more efficient Ferrari front wing with less drag for increased top speed, also help with those annoying bouts of severe sleep apnea. Also, all the other kids at school would still be laughing at Ferrari's little bubbaleh if they hadn't gotten it done for her. And for those of you who can't-a speak-a the Italian-a, we've got a helpful translation of the gist of the animation above after the jump thanks to the F1 fan-boys over at Axis Of Oversteer "a channel joins the lower section of the nose to the upper, with an inverted profile wing inserted at the channel's exit. The basic purpose of this configuration is to relieve the negative effects of the high pressure area under the nose which creates an aerodynamic obstruction as the speed increases." You'll be able to check...

newVideoPlayer("Kavinsky1986_Jalopnik.flv", 463, 387,""); How to explain the video above? There's no point in making a techno-electronica album in the spirit of Giorgio Moroder without some sort of insane concept. Enter Kavinksy's 1986 , an album kinda sorta about a guy who was bumped off in some sort of crash that involves some kind of crime. He dies unceremoniously but is somehow revived to drive his Ferrari Testarossa, which also revives itself. Zombie Ferrari. Zombie driver. He must get his revenge against... well... hard to say. The concept is a bit vague and the music is perhaps too derivative but a zombie Testarossa, what more could you want as a Monday morning pick-me-up? [ YouTube ]

newVideoPlayer("Fake_Ferraris_Colbert.flv", 463, 387,""); We know we already told Stephen Colbert not to steal our stories. Apparently he's not listening. That's right, last night the propagator of "truthiness" yet again snatched up a story from our pages to splay across the basic cable airwaves. Last time it was " Our Country , Our Truck " and this time it's the Fiero Ferrari story. Stephen Colbert, just a reminder that this does nothing to help you get off of our "On Notice" list. Watch yourself there Frenchie -- the only ones who should be doing any splaying whatsoever will be us.

newVideoPlayer("berlinettacrash_jalopnik.flv", 475, 376,"");We at Jalopnik have sort of become connoisseurs of the Ferrari crash. And while the Eddie Griffith Enzo Crash may be considered an enjoyable appetizer and the the original Ferrari Enzo crash the piece d'resistance , this video of a dumbass in an F355 is merely a refreshing Apéritif . You can do burnouts? Cool, so could my old Taurus. (Moderately NSFW Language) [Source: YouTube ]

newVideoPlayer("ShellFerrari_gawker.flv", 475, 276); Al Navarro is a co-founder of Mint Advertising , an independent advertising agency in New Jersey. He also drives a Caterham Superlight R , so don't front. I apologize in advance that this first in a series is on the long side. I use the extra words to explain some things here and there, including the overall format I'd like these reviews to take. Future posts will be shorter. Regular Jalopnik readers should already know me from my trail of Caterham parts, or perhaps the infamous Slut Machine QOTD . But if you don't, my name is Al Navarro and I've been a commenter and occasional guest poster here since about May 2006. My day job is in advertising; I co-own a small agency in the middle of nowhere New Jersey. We do a little TV here and there and have a major auto parts distributor as a client, but no car makers or dealers on the roster right now. I have worked on car clients in the past, including some award-winning...
