Something along these lines you mean?

With a six-cylinder engine itās not a Ferrari, but a āDinoā. 
Thanks for the reply! Yeah something like that!
Maybe one with a thin Italian flag pin stripe down the length, and another with a thicker Italian racing ālineā over the roof like on a 430 Scuderia. Maybe a classic racing one like dark blue with roundels (racing numbers, white stripe), and sometimes using the Ferrari shield instead of the rectangle. I have lots of ideas! Maybe I should DM you some car images as inspiration later, to not derail this thread?
Haha, very good point! Letās not mention the motor too much

Yeahhh, nice!! Iāll have that one please haha
That 365 GT is beautiful too! Youāve driven it?! Wow! Iāve driven a few, but nothing that old heheh.
Have you seen the tribute cars Ferrari did? - modern road cars but done in I think 70 different themes, reflecting back on their history of 70 years of racing. Thatās what I had in mind for aircraft liveries. Taking design cues from the classics but applying it to other body shapes.
EDIT: off-topic, sorry! But this link shows some of the popular ones - there are 70 though! These are Ferrari's 70th anniversary cars | Top Gear

Other than being admired for their elegance and sporty-sh look, Stelio Frati airplanes have always been highly respected as being truly āpilotās airplanesā due to the accuracy and lightness of their flying controls that respond to a fingertipās input.
The well coordinated, smooth maneuvres shown in the footages are very promising indeed!
Thanks for sharing and looking forward for more

SSW Team, have you considered, once the SF-260 will be finished and released, to derive from this model the famous Fratiās F8-L Falco?
Yes the Falco is different from the SF-260, mainly being of wooden construction and with smaller, lower power engine, still these airplanesā geometry is quite similar in many parts and possibly the modeling effort will be affordable.
As I think you know, the revised construction and assembly drawings of the Falco, made by Sequoia Aircraft, are freely available in internet, as well as the very detailed aircraft specification manual.
For me, being a huge admirer of the Falco, I would buy it on a whim 
Cheers

Very excited to see the Marchetti SF 260 coming to MSFS 2020. The videos look great. I wanted to comment on the spin video though as the spin characteristics donāt seem realistic. The sf260 incipient phase of the spin (before the spin is fully developed) has the plane roll on itās back. You can see it in this video I made a few years back (i canāt seem to be able to paste the url - maybe message me or send me your email if you want a link). I hope this helps improve your flight model. I would also be curious if the snap roll is behaving with your model (another kind of spin). Keep up the good work. Canāt wait to buy it!
Sorry Fratiās project, even if should be considered as F 260 fatherās is not on our road map.
After SF 260 will develop Lockheed T-33 A āShooting Starā or Republic F84-F āThunderstreakā (to be decided)
cheers

Hello,
About pitch during spin flight manual says:
āThe spin stabilizes after the third turn with nose down attitude and an indicated aiirpeed of approx 105 ktsā
Which is close to what happens on the footage.
Note that SF260 is spin resistant, on the footage first turns you can see that it tries to exit from spin if you do not force full rudder travel.
We have saw and investigated several SF 260 spins footages, iām afraid canāt get what you mean āroll on is backā.
If you have a link to what you mean please send the link at help-desk@simskunkworks.it it will be of great help.
