Hawaiian Sunday with Maserati MC12, Ferrari F50, Dino, FGT, Valentino Balboni & More

A few of us went on a Sunday morning drive including the requisite Ferrari Scuderias, Challenge Stradales, Californias, Lambos, Porsche GT3s, Astons, Panteras and more. Lunch was at our friend's house whose carpeted and marble floored garage is an integral part of the house complete with large sliding glass doors.

The porte cochere accommodated many of us but quite a few of the other cars were relegated to the side yard.

While most of the cars resided on carpet including the F50, 512 BBi, Countach & Bentley...

 

[AlohaGT]

even the lift area is wall to wall carpet...

However, some of the Ferraris including the Dino rests on marble.

Valentino Balboni, recently retired chief test driver for Lamborghini, was exceedingly generous with endless stories of his 40 years with the company

Looks nice! Did you run Pali, Like Like or H-3? When I was single there many moons ago, I had a silver 356A with a sun roof. Oh to have that car now.

We ran the Pali, H1, H2 & H3, out to the North Shore and back. As you might imagine, a couple dozen of us attracts a bit of attention.

Wow! Long run with great cars. Thanks for the pics.

Must have been impressive and fun.

very cool AlohaGT, nice to see the Mrs. You are keeping your tan just perfect. No shots of the Heritage? Any red dirt on the undercarriage? Are you coming to LA before the Rally V?

Looks like a good time. After reading Valentino Balboni in the title, I expected to see the car, not the actual person. Pretty neat.

Hi AtomicGT, long time no chat. My Heritage is with nota4re undergoing the final TT touches along with a few other goodies. I'm flying in to check on the twins Thursday night and flying out Friday night.

We drove the Mrs. Aston Martin DB9, that's her next to the car on the far right in the group porte cochere shot and next to the GT40 in the MC12 photo.

Yeah, the Lambo VB was there too but I thought The Man would be more interesting.

My buddy has a pretty cool house. One drives up this long, uphill driveway and upon pulling into the porte cochere, you're surrounded by all of these exotics and Supercars behind glass on three sides. The cars and garage are literally an integral part of the house with each flowing into the other. Downstairs on the first floor is a good sized indoor swimming pool.

Looks to have been one of those "very" special moments in time

Very awesome. Thanks for sharing that great garage. Now I have another reason to get back to Hawaii sooner, rather than later! =)

Great pics. Wait till you show your friends your new TTGT. Thanks for sharing. :cheers

I think that is the first time I've seen a picture of multiples cars, where the FGT is the tallest of the group. Beautiful lineup.
