Apologies to all if I'm being thick or unobservant but I can see a blue Testarossa (or a variant) next to the 275 rather than a 512. Very happy to be be corrected.
It’s a 512TR which is a variant of the testarossa ![boxedin](/inc/images/boxedin.gif)

This past Sunday was the Beverly Hills Concours d'elegance which is held every Father's Day. It is essentially a collection of extremely valuable hypercars and/or extremely valuable vintage Ferraris and the like. Not too many regular cars you'd see driving around on your streets. Extremely crowded and displayed down the center of Rodeo Drive, I find the contrast between the unsightliness (euphemism for ugly) of modern monstrosities versus the sublime elegance of older vintage designs quite telling. Probably my favorite car in the show was the lime green Ghibli convertible. It was just so peaceful to stare at with its flowing lines and uninterrupted flanks.

Now that is class, absolutely beautiful.The others? Oh dear.
This is a rubbish photo but I spotted this whilst driving back from Cambridge yesterday morning (I don’t mean the white BMX X thing) ![](https://forums-images.pistonheads.com/640577/202406206563283?resize=720)
I had no idea what it was but remembered the number plate - it was a Praga Bohema. Never heard of it before. I initially thought it was a Valkyrie.

5s alive,
I agree with you completely. "Oh dear" is being far too kind.
Still Mulling,
I didn't take any more pictures of the Vector. Having grown up in Los Angeles, they were assembled behind a garage in Marina Del Rey beach community. There were always a couple of them sitting in the parking lot in the alley. Wild looking for the era, but not my cup of tea.

Fair enough. Appreciate the response I agree with you completely. "Oh dear" is being far too kind.
