Ferrari 458 Italia

My goodness, this is a fantastic looking car!

I must admit that over the past years I’ve become quite the Lamborghini fan, but this new 458 Italia could sway me…

Just look at it! Do it again…

One more time! Phew!

Buy the House from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Does the garage above look familiar? If you loved the 1986 movie “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” as much as I did it may ring a bell? In the film, the home belonged to Bueller’s best friend Cameron Frye’s father and housed a tempting red 1961 Ferrari 250 GTO (as selected by Seth Rotherham here) that Bueller and Frye took for an iconic joyride through Chicago.

Sounding familiar now? Remember the famous crash scene when they are trying to set back the counter by leaving the car in reverse, but accidentally drive it out into the ravine?

There you go…. see more pics of the amazing house and get some more facts

Buy a Legendary Ferrari Racer

This year’s Leggende e Passione auction event at the Ferrari factory in Maranello is shaping up to be, well… legendary. RM Auctions has run the historic Ferrari and Maserati auction at the factory for three years running now, but this year’s roster of classic exotic machinery going under the hammer looks to be the best yet. The auction will feature the historic Formula One race car which Alain Prost drove in his infamous duel against Ayrton Senna in 1990:

Packing a 685-horsepower 3.5-liter V12 revving up to 13,000 rpm and mated to a ground-breaking seven-speed sequential transmission, Chassis #121 is what Prost drove to five podiums over the course of the 1990 championship, including one race win. It’s also what Prost was driving when arch-rival Senna crashed into him on the penultimate race of the season in Japan, ending the race for both but handing the title to Senna by default. It was one of the most controversial championships in motor racing history, and now the car in which it all happened is up for sale. Following a nearly €110,000 restoration at the Ferrari factory where it’s being sold, Chassis #121 is expected to fetch €300,000-€400,000 when the hammer drops next month in Maranello. That’s about R4m!

Racing Red Kitchen Inspired by Ferrari

Ferrari may be a name too big for the average home, but a German company is determined to drive their Ferrari-theme kitchen into your home! It boasts a high gloss laminate in red with lots of black accents and characterises an ergonomic design, of course inspired by the sleek and sexy curves of the Italian cars.

It has a second island, usually omitted from contemporary kitchens, as well as a ‘S’ shaped island with a fashionable sink located in the middle part. There are tall storage and wall-fitted oven units behind the island, the lustrous kitchen includes an electric cooktop, raised about the surrounding table, on a freestanding unit, so you may prepare and serve dishes without wasting any time.

This is making me hungry!

F1 Styled Piano

I love music and I love cars. So when someone creates a piano that resembles a supercar it’s bound to hit the right high note with me.

Don’t you think this would would look great parked alongside my 599GTB?
