Ferrari 250 spotted in Carmel, California

Details on This Ferrari 250:

  • Location
    Carmel, California
  • Description
    I saw this real Ferrari 250 SWB California Spyder about 10 cars in front of us in traffic so I got out of the car to go take pictures of it. I was so excited to see it because this is one of my favorite cars. One sold a few years ago for $10,000,000. The F430 driver must have been so jealous. The driver of the 250 seemed very embarrassed that I was taking pictures.

The Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder SWB is one of the most beautiful and stunning car ever made. A real masterpiece! I could stare at it forever. So gorgeous. That's one very lucky guy sitting behind the wheel of this beauty.

Just read these last comments and went on the website and called a friend.
We're each buying a Dagger GT as soon as they come out.
Definately getting one.

That would be amazing if the top speed record made a jump that big!

Wait, didn't they discuss this on Top Gear already? I know it doesn't give it too much, but it was made public that they were goals. I forgot about that.

I just when on their site and all their specs are under "performance goals." Those numbers are just what they are dreaming to get.

Once it makes its way into magazines with all of the stats, then I might believe them.

I'm highly skeptical as well, I will not believe them until the car is actually built. I don't really like the way it looks either.

It's literally able to go 300+ mph!
And it goes from 0-60 in the 2.0 second range!
At least, that's what I've heard.

Can it actually go that fast or are they just saying it will? I am highly skeptical.

Rivibird: The yellow one wasn't a spyder. It was the hardtop version.

Man, I really need to get out to California. You're so lucky just to see all of those. I've seen 3 of the cars on that list, but only one was actually on the road.

I'm not sure what the rarest car I've seen is, it might be an original Talbot Lago T150 Teardrop.

Well I think 55 SWB California Spyders were made and about 35 of them have the desired covered headlights like this one.
