So I was spotting in Paris when a friend calls me up and says a 599 GTO is at Hotel Meurice. Needless to say, I walked really fast to get there, and thankfully it was still there. This is my first Ferrari 599 GTO I spot "in the wild". It's red with a black roof and black side-view mirrors. The plates are from Switzerland (Valais to be precise) and it's simply a beautiful car. It has a "Ferrari France" sticker on it too! What do you think of this 599-limited edition and 670 horse-powered beast?

Back in the old days before the pandemic – in 2017, 2018 and 2019 - I visited the Italian Emilia Romagna, the cities of Modena & Maranello and thus fulfilled a childhood dream: visiting Ferrari (OK, Pagani, Lamborghini & Maserati, too…).
Seeing some of the rarest, history-charged Ferraris parading through the small streets of Modena, gathering on Piazza Roma and paying tribute to the brand‘s 70th anniversary gave you goosebumps and tears of joy.
With emotions still running hot, I had to do a rendition of probably the most iconic classic in Ferrari’s history: the 250 GTO. Certainly, I first did it in red… but seeing this bold blue-yellow painted beauty at the Museum Enzo Ferrari I had to rebuild it.
The model had its‘ debut at the local LEGO-exhibition „Hildesheimer Steinwelten“ in March 2019, together with other not yet posted models. It is a pity, but there is very limited time for LEGO at the moment.
Anyway, when Lennart Cort showed his beautiful model of a red 250 GTO, I had to shift stuff and took some time for some rather cra**y photos of mine… and it is interesting how history repeats: in May this year we had the Maserati MC12, now the 250 GTO. So let us say it again:
We think it is simply amazing to see the same car interpreted by two different builders: spot the different solutions, find the same design concepts - that's clever!
More on the moving history of the real blue-yellow GTO can be found here.

Visited friends in Bend, Oregon back on Memorial Day weekend of this year.
While we were driving around town I saw a beautiful '66 Pontiac GTO. It caught my eye because my dad owned a similar one for about 30 years. Twenty minutes later I see a really nice '65 GTO. That's a bit odd. Five minutes later I see a third. Now I know that something is up. I grab my phone and do a quick google search: Oregon, GTO. Whadya know? There's a GTO car show the same weekend that I just happened to visit.

This is one of the cars that Audi took along to the VSCC's Richard Seaman Memorial Trophies meeting at Donington Park in May 2001, together with the Auto Union C-Type and D-Type pre-war Grand Prix cars. The car is seen at Coppice Corner during one of the demonstration runs. It's the 1989 Audi 90 Quattro IMSA GTO that took part in the North American IMSA GTO Championship in that year and was driven by Hurley Haywood, Hans-Joachim Stuck, Scott Goodyear and Walter Röhrl.
Better pictures taken with a proper camera.

My local Ferrari dealership has an Enzo, F50, F40, and GTO on display in a glass walled car elevator. Yesterday I just happened to stop by the dealership when they brought the cars out for cleaning and servicing.

Haynes International Motor Museum, Breakfast Club, Sunday 5 December 2021.
The three fathers of GTO can be called the engineers of Pontiac - Russell Gee (engine specialist), Bill Collins (chassis specialist) and chief engineer John DeLorean. In early 1963 GM management issuaed and edict banning divisions from involvment in auto racing. At the time Pontiac's main focus was on performance, hence racing was an inportant component of the strategy. But when GM banned factory sponsored racing, Pontiac's young, visionary management turned its attention to emphasizing street performance. The name GTO was inspired by the Ferrari 250 GTO and it was DeLorean's idea. GTO in italian is Gran Turismo Omonogato (Grand Tourer Homologated - english). In other words - officially certified for racing in the Grand tourer class.
The GTO was basically a violation of GM policy limiting the A-body intermediate line to a maximum engine displacement of 330 cu in (5.4 L). Since the GTO was an option package and not standard equipment, it could be considered to fall into a loophole in the policy. Pontiac General Manager Elliot "Pete" Estes approved the new model, although sales manager Frank Bridge, who did not believe it would find a market, insisted on limiting initial production to no more than 5,000 cars. Had the model been a failure, Estes likely would have been reprimanded. As it turned out, it was a great success.
Pontiac GTO have experienced four generations an is still alive. This GTO model is from the very last - fourth generation. It started its era in 2004, relaunched in US, based on the Holden Monaro's V platform. It also become quite popular among so called Tuner's generation. And thos model is not an exception. It has modified body kit - fattened mudguard areas, modified bumpers, hood. It also uses modified interior as well as large wheels to feel more racy. Huge V8 under the hood, 17 studs wide, little more than 37 studs long, blue with blue/black sporty interior. Quite roomy for a race car. Rear seats features foldable armrest at the middle.
Hope you'll like it a bit =)

Very few wagon versions of the GTO appeared in 1964/5 - after which it was discontinued - so they are now very rare. This one does not have a BC Collector Plate.
The 599 GTO, the Ferrari 355 and the Lamborghini 550-2 Valentino Balaboni... If u see further behind there is a LP640-4!
