Drool, as with all the pretty red prancing horses I will never own. Sigh.  :-\

The side sculpting on the new California reminds me of a similar feature on the '66-'67 365 California Spider, only backward.  ;)

The real 8C2900's of the 1930's are what dreams are made of
For those at the upcoming Pebble Beach concours d'elegance this year I'm with the 8C2900 that will be on the lawn this year.

Oh MotoC, You are my hero!
I have drooled over the 8C2900B for years, along with it's little brother the 6C2300.
That is IMO, the epitome of beauty, and I would take one instead of any RR or Bugati ever made.

I know, but I hate to mention Chevy and Ferrari at the same time.

The Chevy is but a turn of the Ferrari's key, from being forgotten.

sorry but if a Ferrari has a trunk big enough for a golf bag it just feels wrong to me.

Kewl web site, dig the auto. If you open the sound page.... does the visual look like the partical streams from Ghostbusters to anybody else?  ;D
That's like comparing the Monster to an SV
same basic concept, quite different in feel and substance. BTW even if I had the money truth be told, I'd prolly buy the vette first. But I wouldn't compare it to a Ferrarri.

And a 'vette Z06 will stomp an F430 for the most part in terms of numbers, but it still ain't the same thing.  ;)

Luca drives an Alfa 8C as his daily driver. He has a 599bb Ferrari and a Fiat as well. What does that tell you , when the CEO of Ferrari drives an Alfa Romeo as his dayly car?       

I believe an original Ferrari California 250 GT recently sold for $11,000,000 . Most ever for any Ferrari.
