The Most Beautiful of Cars

A Maserati was always beyond reach.   And if ever offered the choice this would be the darling of my heart.


Sergio Pininfarina, born  in Turin,  September 1926 -  died, July 2012.

for very good reason, designers everywhere (yes, including Maserati) have subsequently sought to emulate the essence of this: so many times, they can no longer be enumerated

RIP Sig. Pininfarina!

It's very muscly, ND. Not a lot of grace and swish there. I'm glad Yacht thinks I'm on the side if the angels. He reproves me for thinking the monarchy is for reconsideration. Don't you think it might be getting just a touch, well, Ruritanian, Yacht?
