Monterey Weekend 2008 - Part 1

Monterey Weekend 2008 - Part 1
The Monterey Peninsula, California becomes every automobile enthusiast's place to be for one week every August. The selection of cars on display range from the sublime to the ridiculous. We just arrived at Pebble Beach this afternoon and were passed by a 599 at the gate, had a Veyron drive past us on 17-mile drive and then had to sit behind a Carrera GT outside The Lodge. Yeah, it's proving tough but we'll get through it...

If you've got a spare few dollars languishing in your bank account, you're gonna wish you were at the Blackhawk Exposition. Got a cool million? How about a 1973 Porsche 911 RSR ? Or a 1914 Mercedes 50hp Tourer (with 38" wheels!) for a mere $750,000? And, for your inner James Bond, how about a 1960 Aston Martin DB4 GT ?

Personally, we know a beaut when we see one and words cannot describe the drool-inspiring gorgeousness of the 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Berlinetta . Price? Upon request. Keeping it company, a 1966 275 Ferrari GTC Berlinetta "Clienti Competizione". Again, if you have to ask, you can't afford it, but we'd be surprised if either of these cars went for less than $5m.
