    Me, I live at about 300km from Villa D'Este, and I hope to be there to see and photograph p4/5!

    Thanks for the signaling, Napolis!

    Hey, Jim- it was a toss up for me; either go to the Lake District in Italy and stay at the Villa D'Este during the Concours, or book a room for two on the highway outside of Columbus, Ohio. Since the aesthetics were similar, see comparison photos below, and the food choices comparable, I did the logical thing.

    Thanks Jim,

    I'll be probably there on sunday. Now I'm planning the trip with my office mate Andrea, that's really enthusiast to have the possibility to see and photograph the p4/5 in a such beautiful environment like Villa d'Este.

    Currently, such as I'm involved with a 3D model of a 512s "coda lunga" (images here: http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135861 ), Andrea is trying to model a 330p4 like yours. So he asked me to ask you, please, if at Villa d'Este there will be also your 330p4. He'd like to photograph in detail a 330p4 to have the best material avaiable for 3d modeling.

    Surely, if there will be the occasion, I'll be really proud to meet you

    Thanks and excuse me for the strange question.
    Alan

    You know......

    The places in those pictures look very familiar. Did they film the hospital and ending scene of casino royale there?

    Not sure. But the first 2 photographs show the Villa Erba (near the Villa d'Este) , where was carried out the film "Le guépard", by Lucchino Visconti (Alain Delon, Claudia Cardinale,..)

    thought so, the very last pic looks like the house that bond killed Mr. white and the very first looks like the hospital

    EDIT: btw, sorry to thread jack.

    a good view of the hotel, early in the morning. The cars parade along the front of the hotel, each individual car making its way up there.

    I would very much appreciate if someone would take a bunch of detail photos of the "etceterini" type of cars that are there.

    Thanks,
