Would you believe this car was designed in 1970? A Lancia HF Zero one-of-a-kind concept car currently in the Peterson Museum in L.A.

The body of that magnificent beast makes for a beautiful redhead! However, considering the low slug stance, stiff suspension and cramped cockpit, she is nice to look at and perhaps even lust after, but I suspect she might make for a decidedly punishing ride for some of us! I think I will stick with my Cadillac! LOL. ;)

Yesterday afternoon I went to the grocery store, and my little thirteen year old Oxford green Mini S convertible parked next to a new bright red Ferrari. I think it was a Spider Convertible but am not sufficiently versed in current Ferraris to be sure. It is humbling to park a car you think is pretty cool next to one for which a set of tires would cost more than your whole car could fetch! I'll bet he was buying halibut or rib lamb chops! I got dog treats.

Here something you'll likely never see - a Mercedes 450Sl Shooting Brake. Too bad Mercedes never made these cars. Somebody took a 1979 450sl Convertible and made it into a wagon. There are few things I dislike about the car, such as wheels, but In my opinion they did a real nice conversion job. Sold On Bring a Trailer a couple of years ago for $30,000. For more pics and description go here:

Reminds of the Mustang wagon concept cars that were floated in the 60'S

I think the Mustang would not have been called shooting brake but a shag wagon.
