Ferrari in Beverly Hills

Hey everybodeee!

Ferrari was in full effect today in Beverly Hills.  They had over a handful of blocks closed all day for this particular event.  This Ferrari anniversary party was about a new Ferrari F-60 America.  Only a lucky 10 will be available in the US of A.

Lots of people!

Jermain Jackson was in the house with people lining up to take pictures of him.

This is a 1953 340 Mexico

Say hello to the 1950 250 Berlinetta

1965 250 LM

This is a super nice 10
1960 250 TR.  

275 GTS Spyder.  Similar to the Ferris Bueller's Day Off car.

1966 275 GTB

1958 250 TR.

1996 F50- GT only one in existence.
They didn't even drive this car to the trailer... they had to push it!



This 1956 410 SuperAmerica and was one of the few white Ferraris...

The actual model of this is called "La Ferrari"

Here is the back of it.

F-40

Funny thing about F-40s, is that they technically are not rare... 
they made "only 1,350" as opposed to the other cars that have less than a handful in existence.  I still like them though... first car to go 200mph!

This is the Miami Vice 1985  Ferrari Testarossa!  Funny thing was that the first Ferrari in the tv show was actually a FAKE.  Yup... they used a fake red Ferrari Daytona.  Nice car but it was fake.  Apparently Ferrari found out about it and GAVE them this car to use and they "killed off' the fake one.

This is the actual vehicle used in the TV series.  Note the single driver sided mirror.  They added the other side in 1987. You can see the chips from the wear and tear.

Check out those "cheese grater" vents!

365 GTB/4 
The unofficial name is "Daytona" because that year Ferrari kicked ass at the Daytona race.  At the time this was the fastest car you could buy.  Brock Yates drove this one in a race across the US in 1971 and won!

1967 330 P4.  Wow, this car really looked amazing.

  This car is remarkable.

The joke was that people were saying that the cars were hybrids or electric because they had to push some of them and they were super quiet compared to all the other cars.
