I'd forgotten about that e type hearse from the old movie "Harold and Maude".

Too cool....I wonder if the car still exists?

Ok, Byron, I give: what is all that? I see an engine in the middle of it, but none of the rest of that looks terribly familiar. ????

Speaking of beautiful cars, has anyone caught the special on Discovery HD Theater about Ralph Lauren's cars? Saw it in it's entirety for the first time tonight. My 8 year old daughter could see the resemblance between the beautiful cars and the 'fashion' industry. Pretty cool stuff.

Yeah, I have that show recorded on my DVR. Pretty amazing stuff. I liked the part about the fact that he only has 14 Ferraris but there are people that have more than that. The analogy that followed was great. What's better, to have 14 $100 bills or 25 $1 bills?

I wish there had been more footage of the 550 and the 959.

Has anyone noticed mastercard commercial with the 550?

There's so much "wrong" going on here - even the composition.
