There was a middle floor that had just 2 cars and was dedicated to Ferraris in Hollywood movies. There was a screening room that just ran clips of famous movies that had Ferrari's and then the 2 cars - One owned by the man himself, Steve McQueen, a 275 GTB4 that he bought while filming Bullitt. The other was the most hideous thing my virgin eyes have ever come across. My pictures don't really convey how ugly this thing was. The proportions were all off and the color was something like gold mixed with dung, with black leather trunk straps and interior. I added one picture that was not mine so you could see the side view of the car. The car was the P540 Superfast Aperta, which according to Wikipedia:
"The Ferrari P540 Superfast Aperta is a one-off !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! produced by the Italian sports car manufacturer Ferrari, based on the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.
Edward Walson commissioned the car in 2008, asking Ferrari to build a modern interpretation of the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! covered Carrozzeria Fantuzzi-designed Ferrari built for the film Toby Damnit. This car represents the second car in Ferrari's Special Project program."
Apparently Edward Walson is a very rich, very blind, very gullible man. I wish I had taken pictures of the interior now, because that was the worst part of the car it was gold-ish like the outside and had lots of faux wood wrap on everything. I even tried to google a image of the interior but none exist. Apparently no photographer in the world could drop themselves down to the level of photographing that miscarriage of a car interior.
I wasn't sure about grouping these 2 cars together in one post but here there are:

may I suggest tagging these posts similarly so they all show up together?

Sure thing. This is my first time posting so I'm going to ask a dumb question: How do I do that? Also, is there a way to upload more than 1 picture at a time?
Thanks MonkeyPuzzle!

nope, picture upload is one at a time :(
tag is easy, when editing/creating your post, there is a tag blank at the very bottom, just edit each of these to have the same tag and they will appear as... well... like that... down there.. umm you appear to have already done this now :D
