In the pics it's the 275 GTS.

Not your typical shark nosed Ferrari Spyder, but a good, usable, fast, chick magnet of a convertible that makes that unmistakable sound only a 12 cylinder Ferrari can make. 209 bullet proof engine and masculine good looks can make the biggest dork on the planet feel like Robert Wagner

Only thing missing is Natalie Wood God rest her soul!

For this question you have to go to the mountain top....here is a link to Top Gear's best of 2010 list.......

Cars have always made me feel like a need to change my panties. I dunno why. Ever since I was a kid restoring antique Jaguars with my dad, I've felt...something. It just seems to have morphed into some kind of sexual attraction in my adult years. LOL. If money were no object....these would be my preferences, in order of need:

#1. The Aston Martin Vanquish - because its sexier than any woman ever could be


#2. The 2010 Jaguar XK Coupe - just for everyday galavanting, lol


#3. The 1954 Jaguar XK120 - because it was the first vintage car I ever restored with my dad, and also the first car I ever drove, period. I took it for a congratulatory spin when I got my driver's license. He only let me drive it around the block, but it was totally worth all the begging and pleading to be able to feel my legs stick to the leather of the seat I re-upholstered and hear the engine purr with the special formula oil I changed myself.

Since I don't drive, I'll need a Limo and prefer a classic RR. But I'll need a chauffeur that knows how to drive, like Danica Patrick:

I've always loved sports cars. Back in the '90s I had a 512TR for a year or so, but after the novelty wore off it started looking less and less like a fun sports car and more and more like a pile of money sitting in my garage!

I always enjoyed driving Porsche 911s, but preferred the looks of the 1993 928GTS. It felt a little heavy and slow, though.

Nowadays the only sports car I have is a Tesla Roadster:



It's a real blast to drive. It handles curves like it's on rails and the almost eerie silence of the electric motor offers an interesting experience. And it's pretty quick: 0-60mph in 3.7s and SS quarter-mile in 12.6s, according to Motor Trend.

Of course, you'll be missing that nice, throaty roar of a Ferrari V-12, but the electric motor's silence is still a novel feeling.

And it's nice to know you can play around with a high-performance sports car on an "ozone red alert" day in Dallas without joining everyone else in fucking up the air quality!

The car in the movie was a replica of a Speedster, a modification of the 356 and the car James Dean died in. Since the real thing goes for high six figures in perfect condition, they used a cheaper alternative to jump up the wrong way on the one-way street which goes down to San Diego's airport.

Useless trivia from the set.

Dean was in a 550 Spyder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Dean#Death

I want to know how they got from the exit of the NTC on Rosecrans to Laurel so quickly?

Aston Martin Vanquish is my car for something new. Original Gull-Wing Mercedes for something classic.

Yeah, but it sure comes in handy if you need to get to a lady's place quickly!

Funny video, BTW. I'm going to email it to a few people.
