I got this idea from another thread but I thought this would be a fun thread to do?
Famous women and Ferrari's or other beautiful cars..
I will start:
Marilyn Monroe and her Ferrari 250 GT Cabrio (copyright of Marilyn not mine)

Lol, I was clearly joking...

Lol, that has nothing to do with a mans nationality I guess :-P

May be that's because I am Italian, but I prefer Jane to Gunther...
Trossi Posted - 01/05/2011 : 08:21:20
The blue California Spider with Delon and Fonda was owned by German playboy Gunther Sachs at that time.

As far as I know the car was ordered by Rossellini himself for Ingrid Bergman, but this happened while they were divorcing and so he kept for a while the car ( he then sold it, afterall). But it was intended for Ingrid.

That last one is Ferrari 375MM s/n 0402AM, which Rosellini ordered for himself. 375MM s/n 0456AM is widely regarded as the "Bergman" Ferrari, but she probably has never driven it.

I think some important ones are missing...
Christie Brinkley and the 308 GTS

Alain Delon, Jane Fonda and the California... a triplet of a certain thickness...

The Ferrari that Rossellini built for Ingrid Bergman...

Some more cars from British Queen "stable".
Rolls-Royce Phantom IV by Hooper, model by French FYP as I suppose



Very old and rare die-cast RR Phantom V with figures of Monarchs and driver, and electrically operated front and rear lights. Made by Spot-On.



This model was sold completed with platoon of National guardsmen



Finally - the fleet of Royal cars, all die-cast "toys". From left to right: RR Phantom IV by Rextoys, RR Phantom V Spot-On, Bentley State limousine (see post above) and Daimler DS420 of Queen Mather, Oxford.

A great topic and fun thread.
Thanks to James for starting it and to Vladimir for so many informative posts, and to anyone else contributing to it too.

I also have that nice little "Marilyn Monroe" Ferrari and never got around to checking on the connection, and now I know the rest of the story.
My favorite methinks is the BBR Rossellini car not pictured just because of it's clean lines..

and James, just curious but where in Colorado do you live?




Cheers and Happy Collecting,
Steve
