Ferrari's latest offering -- the Purosangue four-door AWD sorta SUV.
6.5 liter V-12 of 715 hp, 8-speed dual-clutch transmission at the rear; one of the interesting features is that when the tranny shifts into the top four gears, the front wheel drive is deactivated. Price? $398,350 in the USA. The initial reaction from Ferrari owners was generally negative (Remember when the X5 debuted? The Porsche Cayenne?)

I was at Blackhawk Museum a couple of weeks ago and they had this amazing 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster on display.

Thought so.

Last time I was at one was when I went to visit my daughter who was living and going to UCLA (20 something years ago).

There was another one not too far from my family's apartment when I was a kid growing up in L.A.

PS - think the one that my daughter and I went to was in Culver City.

Not sure I'm feeling the Lambo doors, but still an amazing car.
