There was a '69 Z28 chasing the red 355. Also,a scene with a bunch of Ferrari's together. I didn't notice any "hot" F50's in that shot,though.(see thread about F50 getting ripped-off at Algar) |

It was about a Ferrari convention at the hotel. Funny, the scenes in the casino didn't show any Ferrari-attired conventioners. Were they all hiding? |

Didn't see the show. Why so many Ferraris in Las Vegas (the place, not the show)? Is it a combo of a bunch of people w/money that run the hotels, plus the great weather and proximity to California? |

This is the worst show about Vegas. It's pathetic. Some guy with a hooker was trying to buy red 355 for 40k in chips. The security guys says they go for min. 130k. |

The valet was getting into the black Mondial Cab I also thought I saw a Red 308 parked right beside the blue 348 in front of the hotel. Pretty good show. |

wasn't the "valet" getting into a black TR at one point in the show? Now I wish I had taped it! |

Believe I saw a 456 in there (can't remember the color), next to the "hot" 355 right when they were about to take it for a spin. |

I saw the show tonight... these were the cars I saw: Chiaro blue 348tb Rosso Corsa 355 spider Black Mondial Cab Dark Blue/TDF? 550M (speeding away from the hotel) Did I miss any? The episode was about a Ferrari Convention at the "Montecito" casino... someone trying to sell a hot 355 spider to an unsuspecting person... among other things... |

I once ran into a guy like the "car salesman" on the show, but it was at the St. Regis Monarch Beach Resort in Laguna Niguel, CA during last year's Super Bowl. He always had several late model Ferraris parked in the forecourt of the hotel entrance. He crashed a late night cocktail party and I had a chance to quiz him a bit about his cars, but all I got were some pretty vague answers. All in all he seemed kind of shady and he made me wonder about the provenance of those cars! I'm sure he was paying the hotel doormen something to allow him to keep his cars there. But, after talking with him, I can't imagine that he is the type of image the St. Regis wants to encourage. |

OK, it wasn't one, but several Ferraris. Lots of good footage of the 355. Did anyone get a count on how many there were in various scenes? Hope we can look forward to lots more, but this may have been a one time experience. |

Yes. It is a 355 Spider - red/tan. Didn't see the interior so I don't know if it has the F1 transmission. |

On a preview for tonight's showing of "Las Vegas" I thought I briefly saw a Ferrari. For those of you in the East who have already seen it, is that correct? |
