More Pebble Pics

There were so many gorgeous automobiles at Pebble Beach last weekend that this small gallery doesn't begin to do the event justice. That said, these pics should give you a small flavor of what was there -- and maybe entice you to make the trip next year!

This 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider was auctioned at Pebble Beach by Gooding & Co. on Saturday night for $3.6 million. An absolutely beautiful example of one of Ferrari's most collectible models.


Below is a 1958 Jaguar XK150 S roadster, courtesy of the Blackhawk Collection in Danville, Calif. This one sports the upgraded 265-hp engine and is for sale for $150,000.



This 1955 Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing was displayed in the official Mercedes-Benz corporate showroom tent -- asking price: $850,000. Probably the nicest Gullwing at Pebble Beach (including Oprah's, which was available at the Gooding & Co. auction).
 

Below is another Blackhawk vehicle, a 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Daytona. It was one of the featured marques at the Concours d'Elegance this year.


A gorgeous 1939 Bugatti Type 57C Galabier Saloon, also from Blackhawk. 


Here's a Bugatti Veyron coupe (there were about five at Pebble this year). This one's shiny...


Below is the new Rolls Royce Hyperion concept car with coachwork by Pininfarina. A simply stunning drop-top.


Here's another concept car, the electric Dodge ZEO.
