CARSPOTTING> Historic Ferrari 625/250 Testa Rossa

Several weeks ago, I spotted this immaculate Ferrari 625/250 Testa Rossa sitting all by itself in the middle of Colorado Blvd while I was at the Concorso Ferrari show in Old Town Pasadena, CA.

With so many amazing Ferraris lining the street, I was really lucky to have met the owner (most of them were away from their vehicles) and talk to him a little bit about the car, while chief MotorMaven Antonio Alvendia shot photos. It wasn’t until I got home, however, that I discovered the rich history of this car and its owner - Bruce Meyer.

Bruce Meyer has been a renowned classic car collector for years and is widely known for his collection of cars - a collection which contains such prized pieces as Clark Gable's Mercedes 300SL convertible, Steve McQueen’s Porsche 356, and even the classic Concours d'Elegance show-winning Duesenberg.

Anyway, who wouldn't want to spend the day with tons of beautiful Italian cars? I was dumbfounded by how many gorgeous looking Ferraris turned up to fill up all of Pasadena's famous Colorado Boulevard.   Read more...
