Pretty sweet.

Good examples of all the usual suspects in attendance, I see.

However, one doesn't often see '59 Pontiacs of any variety any more, let alone vividly orange ones.

Also very cool to see an MGA being trotted out.

*Blasphemy Alert* Good grief, I always forget just how ugly those first Lamborghinis were until I see one again.

Thanks for posting!

truly blasphemy. I love them ugly bastids. Though not as much as a Zagato coachwork of just about any badge.

One is fugly and one is not.

Some Lambos are the vehicular equivalent of this line from the Hitchiker's Guide:

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it, then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with.'"

Fixed. Which is the fugly one?

Old enough to remember when these NACA ducts were all the rage; the "carbon fiber" of their day.

I'll take the 400 GT 2+ 2 over them other transformer Lambos any day.
As long as it ain't red.
