Thanks for the pics, I like the shadow-people between the sharp cars ( of course without it's even better).
the 575GTC is awesome
some of the other I've never heard of :shock:
one of themost exclusive parkings

Dani, the yellow F40 came with a spare stock bonnet, with headlamps

As for the pics, mixed feelings, sure, but luckily my friend is in none of them, and this helped a bit. Also, as said, every excuse to be busy doing something is useful

Like the 212 - nice color! Isnt it funny to see a 308 thrown in with rarer and more expensive Ferraris

Love the Lusso - though would prefer in in maroon!

I was surprised to see in the results that 212 didn't sell because it was like new and it's a damn rare car! I think it was estimated somewhere around 2 milions USD but apparently most ppl throwed their money into the Maseratis this year (first time they include Maser in the sale)

Even though it was a very sad day, the pics are great. My favourite is the 2nd one with the 2 F40's!

btw, IMO it was a good decision to mention what happened that day in the intro of the event.

Too bad it was such a bad day for you, but.... what can we do ???

Anyway, great pics as usual.

That F212 looks like an hot hatch The 575 GTC is really impressive :shock:
The yellow F40 would look great with the lights. The red one is just awesome Do you know how much they wanted for the red F40 ??

And thanks a lot for one thing you're the only guy doing around here: The name of the car in all the pics. It's really important for those who doesn't know wich car is it and want to save the pics!!
