Not sure if real

The flat hubcaps make me think it's a mid 60's 356 B coupe. Early cabriolet's go for silly money (€5 - 600k +) but a coupe like this could be €80 - 120k. It looks pretty faithful (wing mounted filler was introduced in this version) - only the wing mounted side repeater makes me think that there is some modern tinkering going on - not sure if that was a period feature or not.

Siem Reap? A few years ago got dropped back to the airport in the Rolls. Lovely motors
Gone up in the world since we were there back in 2005 then. We had a Camry + driver and that felt like the definition of luxury 20 years ago...

I didn’t take a pic of the bootlid but it said something like Porsche and 90 S, which threw me off as it’s not a nomenclature I’d heard of before with 356s.

Hence why I’m not sure it’s genuine.

It would be a 356B Super 90 then.

Ferrari F430 having coffee after an event at Classic Motor Hub. Just as I was about to leave a 296 Convertible turned up in silence.

Yep. Looks ridiculous. But as the old saying goes, money can’t buy taste.
Bit unfair.

The owner has several cars and the rest of his collection is the definition of good taste imo!

You can see the family resemblance.

Saw this beauty today at the Loh collection. Absolutely stunning place and I can't praise its exhibits high enough. Simply stunning and crammed with some of the rarest most beautiful cars ever created. Lots of original race winning cars too. Just stunning.
That looks absolutely wonderful and is now on my to-do-list. Thank you very much! thumbup

Back on earth, an immaculate R36 in South West London



Nice and rare and think they look great - very low key and subtle, would love to own one.

A T6 to be precise. I dont think you can buy a replica of one of those - about £100k for a Super 90.

SF90 spotted today in Canary Wharf. Rather a un-Ferrari shade of blue I thought... still, looked pretty ace though.

No irl pic as it was going the other way. And I was driving so....

I saw a small red car with "highland" on the bonnet. Turns out it was one of these!

I wish Ferrari would just calm down on the styling. The rear the SF90 is a mess. The front is beaky too.

Agreed. Ugly, and completely upstaged by its 296GTB little brother.

That is way off being a super- or even interesting car, but goes straight into my “cars I didn’t know existed” file!
