What is more important, whether a car is fast or it looks fast?

In fact, when I was little and I saw the ads of these cars for sale,… Read More Fast look: Puma Coupè GTE 1600
We have already seen an Appia in its convertible version, so there is nothing wrong with seeing one converted by Zagato.

Anything in front of a mirror produces an image that is identical to itself but is not real. What we have here is not the real thing, but it can be touched and driven.

The seller says that this 250 GTE is for sale for the first time since it was delivered new in the USA to Otto Zipper Motors in Hollywood. Indeed it’s one of the few Ferrari of that period to have a mile-scaled speedometer so that’s coherent with what the seller says. The car has been… Read More First time for sale: 1963 Ferrari 250 GTE

Times have changed and now it could be worth even to underline the sale of a bare shell (with some ancillaries) of a 250 GTE which, if complete and restored, is now worth even an half million dollars. Probably the chassis and engine of this car has been used years ago as a base to… Read More Ghost in the shell: 1960 Ferrari 250 GTE “body”
This car has not the easiest name of the world to be pronounced, but for sure is one of the streamiest lines ever made for a station wagon: Michelotti made a great work here. It’s a 1973 – fiberglass bodied – Reliant Scimitar powered by the “Essex” V6 Ford engine: 150 h.p. are enough to… Read More Sleeker is better: 1973 Reliant Scimitar GTE 3.0 SE5-A
