The Bulldog was my clear favorite but there were many 'runners up'. That Frua bodied Maserati you see in this episode was beyond lovely. Peter's GT40 has to be seen in person to appreciate. And then the dark choice: There was a 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS convertible, 4 Speed at Bonham's this year that almost became Eva's roomate:)
Still think you need that custom jacket with the lining to match your seats. At least get custom made Vans with a photo of that fabric on them for cheap. 17:22
@@MotoManTV Vans - Under Shoe Select - Customize: Select Add Your Image. The Styles are wide, colors of every little stitch and part of your own choosing all for $20 upgrade…are you hearing the option list total you OEM’s? 😁 For the jacket I know a seamstress out Belmont side of the US. Starting with a great fitting jacket is obviously the starting base upon which to glorify with your extra fabric.
Funny behind the scenes story on that one: It was the car we drove up from LA but as mentioned in the episde, we had another car during the event so it sat there in the parking lot of the hotel amongst the fanciest of cars and in doing so, became the most rare 4 wheeled conveyance in the lot . . . and yes, it was an N Line:)
By the way, M, did you a chance to check out Touring Superleggera's new project? The Veloce12? (13:04 at the background) I'm generally a fan of their work, but chopping up a Maranello? In the immortal words of the late don Corleone, That, I cannot do.
Thank you for bringing us to Pebble to the fancy cars - awesome to watch. The Maserati looks sick! Really really good. Love the view on the classic cars like the Bulldog (never seen one), the new Ferrari 12C, wonderful car culture over there!
Interesting topic, would go to Pebble beach? I feel more comfortable at Deni ute muster, as i meet old mates, we walk n talk looking at utes. But mine aka Pebble Beach moment was going to CaseIH demonstration day introducing new Magnum Rowtrac, it wasn't just test drive a tractor that i never get to drive because its expensive n limited type of tractor but i got talk to engineers, relating good/bad points with different tractors. These engineers not only demonstrate but take note which i seen improvements in their tractor range. Going to dealerships you get pre judge, doesn't feel comfortable, some saleman are rude others like hearing stories, that one time this saleman came back with merchandise for free, he genuinely enjoy our company in talking tractors. I still have dealer here that enjoy me coming to dealership n talking.
Sir Michael Kadoorie is very active in the classic car world and the Kadoorie family founded Peninsula Hotels (The Quail and Quail Motorsports Gathering).
Camping sites in Big Sur are booked out for a year, so it definitely needs planning. Also Rivian had G-wagen’s tank turn much earlier but they decided to priorities threading lightly on offroad trails to prevent soil erosion… Mercedes on the other hand leans into the douchebag image
He used to work in the tech industry, as well. Might still be receiving royalties for something he created/co-created, but don't quote me on that much.
Not only do I learn so much about autos and their industry when I watch MotoMan but I also get tips about the stock market. I guess I am going to go defensive for next year….:) Thanks MM!
I got to attend this year for two days and still barely scratched the surface. What an amazing showcase and stunning location. Planning on going back next year, God willing!
ok, this is out of my league and experience but must be nice to be around that show. the 12 cilindri is, as far as i can see, a really good looking car and would love to see it in the flesh. Being able to share this experience with other people who share this hobbie must be quite an attractive plan.
Buy now. Cars will be racing up during the next year as they follow the stock market and crypto. If you're looking to sell, sell at Pebble next year. 2026 the market will fall again.
You're sandbagging us. You are highly unlikely to be either the poorest or the dumbest person in any room. In fact, I'd wager the opposite is often the case.
