    I love these games.

    First one, I have no idea. I couldn't even tell you whether it's US or Foreign. But I'll try to figure it out.

    Second one is a Ferrari 250GT Lusso Berlinetta.

    Edit: First car, possibly a Salmson?

    The original owner of the Lusso you pictured was Steve McQueen. The car may be the most complete and correct Lusso I have ever seen. The owner/restorer spent quite a bit of time showing me the car. Also, McQueen's son was there. He remembers riding in it when he was three years old.

    Delage D8-120 S. Harry Uehlein has had it or one like it for years, IIRC.
    LeTourneau et Marchand body. A fave.

    Very cool, I always knew Steve had good taste! That car is very sweet, wish I had been able to see it. Next time.

    Fave indeed. gotta be one of the most gorgous cars ever.
    So lets see, you know and collect new cars, know all about old cars AND have the largest and best quality collection of bikini pics in the whole world. Is it time for some kind of fchat award....? Renaissance Man of the month maybe.

    They keep moving the fence in the Lusso ball park. Maybe ~$350k now?
