Hi there
Thanks for sharing the photos
All of those cars are beautiful !!!
One car looks a bit more interesting
As it’s actually a brand new car , it too is gorgeous and I’m sure it will become a classic car one day too.
The Totem GT :
They are not shy with the asking price though :)
I think my favourite car there is the Ferrari 308.
As a kid I loved watching Magnum PI .
Ahh the good old days
( is that actually a car used in magnum Pi )


 
Glad you could attend this and thanks for posting pics! This was somewhat of a mini version of the full "Macchinissima" shows that do a fantastic job of curating classic Italian vehicles, but somehow stir in a vibe that resembles what "Luftgekuhlt" does for the air cooled Porsche world.

I flew into Los Angeles specifically to attend last year's "Macchi ll" show and it was the best car event experience for me of 2024. The next Macchinissima event is slotted for September 27th, in Los Angeles, so if you like classic Italian keep your eyes open for this show.

We all love the BMW E9 for reasons obvious to us, but it is interesting to see and learn what the Italian companies and design houses were cooking up in decades past.
