“When it comes to what cars you like, I think that everyone wants the cars they coveted when they were growing up,” Skip Barber tells Petrolicious. “The 275 Ferrari, I can still see one in Cambridge, a bright yellow one – with a woman with the best pair of blue jeans and heels getting into the car… I got the car.”

The DB4 Zagato is without doubt a priceless piece of automotive art, but it’s surprisingly not the rarest Aston Martin ever built. Even though there were only 19 of them carefully crafted by the Italian coachbuilder, that’s 18 more than the one-of-its-kind DB9 Zagato.…
It’s impossible not to fall in love with San Sebastián. The food here is what dreams are made of, ranging from the small rustic bars serving tapas, here known as pintxos, to the many Michelin-starred restaurants.

In the spring of 1948, Fiat management instructed technical director Dante Giacosa to begin developing a V-6 engine to be used in a newly planned six-passenger sedan.

As customary with Italian, the two words (“thousand” and “miles”) come together perfectly, gracefully rolling off the tongue.
