Exotics in rome

[Fleischmann]

Hi guys!!

I've just come back from a five day trip to Rome. Damn, I saw some nice cars, although the conditions for taking pics were usually awful (yeah, yeah, I know, there is ALWAYS an excuse ). I didn't have a lens filter with me and the reflections were horrible.

I visited the only Aston Martin dealer in Rome (one of only 3 in Italy) which turned out to be a small triangular shaped room with two cars (DB9 coupe & cabrio) and a small desk. They also had a Vanquish S, but they kept it in the garage. I also had a chat with two americans from Texas next to the red F430 and they told me where the Lambo dealer was. Unfortunatelly they only had two Gallardos (yellow & silver) but no Murcielago :/ I also wal;ked past a Bentley dealer, but they are a pretty common sight in Rome. Anyways, good to be back, and here are a few interesting cars I saw (just one of each for now, I'll post more later).

AM DB9:



AM DB9 Cabrio:



Bentley Conti GT (booooooooooooring):



BMW M6 (Outside the preisdents mansion, nothing but Mercedes and BMW limos...and then this!!):



Ferrari 456 (chased this one for about a kilometre, it finally stopped at some traffic lights)



Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (honestly, this car almost run me over):



Ferrari 430 (my very first!!)



Ferrari 430 Spider (this car got some serious attention amongst Italian girls):



Lambo Gallardo (I gotta learn how to take night shots :/ )



Lotus Esprit:



Maserati 3200 (just outside the Colloseum):



Maserati Quattroporte:



Porsche 993 Carrera 4 (rare colour):



Porsche 996 Carrera:



Porsche 996 Carrera 4S:



Porsche 996 Turbo:



Renault Clio V6:




I was also lucky enough to see some old italian cars during an annual meeting. Unfotunatelly I only had few MB's in my memorystick left :/ On display were 2 Dino's, a 348 a 512BB etc.





And can anybody tell me anything more about this car ?? (I've already googled for Antas V8 )
