Handed the crystalline key fob to a 565-horsepower, $280,000 car with the steering wheel on the wrong side, then loosed about the narrow, broken roads around Newport Pagnell--to drive on the wrong side as well--I shook off my jet lag, smiled, and acted like it was nothing. Of course, it was...

While Ferrari is displaying all five cars in its current lineup at the Paris Auto Show, the most interesting part of its exhibit for supercar fans may be a simple carbon fiber tub, sans bodywork, wheels or drivetrain.
