Title: Italy Trip
Post by: Jango on May 11, 2015, 03:08:11 PM: I am taking a trip to Italy this week and going to Venice, Medina to the Ferrari Manufacturer, and to Monaco to see the Grand Prix. Was planning to fill this thread with the cool car pics I get over there. I know this is not necessarily Jeep related but what car guy doesn't enjoy Formula One race cars and Ferraris? I love them!

Great pics!

I was a little jealous of your trip but if you get to drive a Ferrari I'll be A LOT jealous.
