Carmel Automobilia 2009

The downtown of Carmel, which is within walking distance from my apartment, is a vibrant place especially in the summer. Often the main street will be closed for special events like concerts, themed fairs or various shows. One of the shows that I have attended is the Carmel Automobilia 2009.

I did not know about the event in advance, and found out about it when I went out to lunch with a colleague who temporarily stayed with me for that weekend. Since he had to run some errands after lunch, I decided to take some time to see what the show was all about. Coincidentally Utah called me about it, so we decided to go there together.

I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that they have some decent cars on display there. I can’t remember when was the last time I was actually so close to cars like Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Aston Martins.

Ferrari and Lamborghini:

The Lamborghini Gallardo was actually the one that I used to drive……in Need For Speed Most Wanted. Other cars:

And there was this car which screamed for attention:

The entire car was coated with pennies. Guess how many of them were needed?

That’s only $382.95, really.

Indeed…
