Manu & fellow lovers of the 550/575/Vantage 600 etc. I'm not sure how much more manly it gets after this. New addition to my "going to buy" car list.

Love the scaffolding exhaust pipes

Something tells me this would be somewhat louder than even my mother-in-law. Which has been currently tested at 115db

Looking at the rear lights and the side window profile I would say this started as a 365 BB, forerunner to the 512BB.

More than just a little matcho actually - I think its the silhouette (sp?) 365BB - weren't they build for some kind ALMS for th old days? As far I know they were allowed to VERY loosely "base" the competition designs on road cars............
Love the spaghetti exhaust too!

Smoke of the holiest variety!

I was watching a fantastic little Ridley Scott fairy tale called 'Legend' the other day (Tom Cruise and Tim 'Dr.Frankenfurter' Curry) in which the aforementioned TC hams it up to an almighty degree as the devil. His voice is so demonically camp it's mesmerizing.

Anyway, this would be HIS car. {cracking smile legend too!}

Very strange! This was on the other night here in Miami when I downloaded the pic.
