Wow! The SL65 is gorgeous. IMO nothing there touches the F40. Definitely my pick from all of those cars.

Wonderful pictures!! The 360 and the Continental one looks as if there cars were specifically placed there to take photos. It's a shame, coz the only cool cars I saw when in southern France was a Z4(my first), a 550 and a Testarossa (which my dad overtook on the motorway )
