I met a guy about 10 years ago now who was doing this in a Ranger pickup. He was from California and had gotten some money from a settlement of some sort—supposedly related to a police abuse matter—and he was just wandering the country. He'd stay in a town for a couple of days and meet new people and just generally…

@87CapriceEstate: No, they can bust you for carrying a gun without a permit though. I-65 (runs N/S through the state) is supposedly a big drug running corridor so they don't like it when you come flying through with guns. Of course, the correct answer to "mind if we search your car?" is "show me the warrant".

@Serolf Divad: Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. Like how many clutches should that thing have blown through in 90,000 miles? I think I read somewhere that the service intervals are every 7500 miles on a Gallardo.

@zekestone: What cocaine?

Someone should give her something to be handicapped about.

@Thomas Paladino: I dunno, I think the fine for a handicapped spot should be super high like that to make it an actual deterrent.

Since I don't see anyone reaching for the window switches at any point, I'm going to assume that at some preset high rate of travel the Veyron's windows automatically roll up. Which is pretty Bruce.

@Baby beater Benz: Ditto that.

@Kaiser-Machead: I think they look better in person, but they're still sort of awkward looking. I'd still have one in a second if I had the means.

I'm enjoying the new-found appreciation for the Cayenne. People can tell you all day long that the car is more than the sum of its parts but seeing is believing I suppose.

@modisch: Cayennes are far better vehicles than they get credit for.

@Botswana Meat Commission FC: My wife and I spent part of our honeymoon in St. Tropez a couple of years ago. There was a big wedding in town while we were there and there were, naturally, many very exotic cars hanging about the town. Every evening we'd sit out on the terrace of our hotel and listen to them racing…

@Nick: Uh...so very much wrong with this.

@Americanitis: You're correct. As I recall the story is that the Pantera belonged to Priscilla and Elvis shot it when she told him she wanted a divorce.

@Roberto G.: Are you suggesting that the slim chance that this will ever happen is a valid reason for never wearing a seatbelt?

@tekdemon: On the contrary, Vanilla would likely have gotten the exact same amount. Cars like the super-rare and amazingly beautiful 57SC Atlantic (one of two in existence and understood to be one of the most desirable classic cars in the world) sell for what the classic market determines as their value. The price…

@boomchek: That's the 18th green at Pebble Beach son—you don't get there by accident.

@powermatic: Word. I have to ask: Where are these people coming from? Are they just young? How can you call yourself a car lover and not have any understanding of the fantastic beauty and sophistication of vintage metal?

@Barcode711: I have to disagree. The rear is not particularly different from most of the other Ferrari road cars of the era. It is not too long when viewed in person—the proportions are just right. Also, convertibles are most certainly NOT for chumps. Modern convertibles perhaps, but not vintage ones.

I saw this car in person last summer at Pebble Beach. It is far and away one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen. It has no bad angles and the details are cleverly executed (check out those doorhandles).
