Holiday shopping has not gotten off to a spectacular start, to say the least. Despite all the talk of an economic recovery, ShopperTrak reported that weekly retail sales were down 18% the week ending December 5, 2009, over the previous week, which included Black Friday (typically the year's hottest shopping day).
The news was sobering, especially when compared to last year. Sales were actually 0.3% worse than the same week in December, 2008, when the financial market meltdown was still fresh and consumer fear was running high. However, every Christmas there are at least a handful of items that are deemed "must haves." Retailers and economists are pinning their hopes on the companies that produce those toys, gifts and goods to help turn the tide – or at least stem the hemorrhaging – this holiday season. Here are the companies to watch. (The tips in Holiday Spending Or Spending Holiday? will have you singing "Joy to the World" well into the New Year.)
- Cepia LLC
This year the demand for the electronic Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters recalls the Cabbage Patch craze of the 1980s. The manufacturer is a privately held company - Cepia LLC – based in St. Louis, Missouri. The line of toys, which were originally named "Go Go Pets," was launched for local distribution in Phoenix and the surrounding areas. They were renamed Zhu Zhu Pets and the line went national this fall through big box stores including Toys R Us and Wal-Mart. The "frantically furry" pets and their accessories became an immediate hit and have sold out in retail stores and periodically even online. Although the company had to quickly quash reports that the sell-out toy has high levels of potentially hazardous metals, it did so with passing grades from consumer health and safety certification testing and concerns.
- Nintendo (OTC:NTDOY)
The gaming industry watched overall sales slump in November and Nintendo joined competitors in slashing prices on software. However it has new offerings targeted to eager buyer segments including the Wii Sports Resort game and Wii Fit Plus for budget-conscious fitness freaks that have dumped their gym memberships to work out at home. While its sales are down year-to-year, the company did announce that it sold 550,000 Wii consoles alone during Thanksgiving week.
- Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE:HAS)
If you have an elementary or middle school-aged boy, chances are good that at least one of the items from the Nerf 'n Strike product line is on his wish list. Hasbro is a globally-recognized toy manufacturer with industry-leading brands including Playskool, Tonka, Milton Bradley and Park Brothers. The company is faring the recession well. It netted a 1% increase in year-to-year net revenues for Q2, due in part to growth in its Nerf product line. And just in time for Christmas, it announced a quarterly cash dividend for common stock shareholders.
- Amazon (Nasdaq:AMZN)
In addition to firmly holding its place as the world's largest online retailer, Amazon's own product – the market-leading Kindle reader – has blown away its competition. So far, critics have given two thumbs down to Barnes & Noble's "Nook" ebook reader, and Sony has missed the Christmas season with its yet-to-be unveiled Daily Edition product. Its latest generation Kindle features 3G global wireless capability, longer battery life, automatic syncing with computers and mobile devices, and a built-in PDF reader. Having recently announced a Q3 net sales increase of 28%, and acquisition of the highly-touted shoe company Zappos.com, Amazon is not only potentially one of this holiday season's saviors, but also a prudent investor's stock pick.
- WalMart (NYSE:WMT)
The recession has made bargain hunters of us all. This global powerhouse of big box retailing carries not only almost every "must have" toy on childrens' wish lists, but also discounted grocery, home, automotive and sporting good items in demand during the holidays. On top of that, the company has aggressively invested in rolling out a revamped line of Great Value private label products to capture market share among budget-conscious consumers. Coupon-clipping shoppers responded quickly, with sales inching up 0.2% within eight weeks of the not-even-completed restaging.
Long a perennial favorite of kids of all ages, the privately-held and family-owned LEGO company has maintained its new product momentum well over the past few years. Its Star Wars and Indiana Jones product lines are strong sellers this year, despite being eclipsed by other "hot" items like the Zhu Zhu Pets line and electronic gaming systems, software and accessories. The Denmark-based construction toy manufacturer has subsidiaries and branches worldwide and sells its products through retailers in more than 130 countries.
Though holiday shopping may not fully recover for quite some time, these companies are doing their best to sustain themselves. And it's true that this year may not be the most elaborate in terms of gifts and spending, but rest assured that retailers and product manufacturers have taken note, and are working to cater to a tighter budget.

It is disheartening when people walk away from the Church.
Sometimes, when we try to talk, they run at us like some kid on the opposite team in a game of Red Rover. They want to break through our line and pull somebody else from the Church. They may even attempt to pull us away.

Quote of the Week – Romney's New Olympic Maneuver
From Peter Sagal on his NPR show Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me…
For his next stop, Romney went to Israel and gave a speech comparing the Palestinian culture unfavorably to Israeli culture. When everybody got mad, he said "I never said anything about culture." He did, you can see it in the transcript provided by his campaign. Then after saying it, and then denying he said it, he wrote an op-ed and said it again. Now, in the Olympics they name a difficult move after the first person to do it in international competition. So from now on, the "Triple Self Contradiction with Vaguely Racist Backflip" will be known as the "Triple Romney"
You're welcome!

Today's new ad which is a BIG LIE shows WHITE actors concerned about "welfare" recipients not needing to find work. Of course most welfare goes to poor whites but since the days of Reagan's "welfare queens" and "bucks cashing welfare checks to buy booze", on to George H.W. Bush using "Willie Horton", the former "Party of Lincoln" has been using racist code language tying welfare and food stamps only to black and Latino Americans.

Who The Hell Am I!
I'm a liberal that is extreme in some ways and not in others. I support President Obama and make no apologies for it. I think he has done a phenomenal job, especially when you consider that he inherited a huge mess and has faced unprecedented opposition from a lazy & desperate Republican Party. I'm a film producer/director/editor, adjunct professor, technician, media critic and photographer when I'm not reading left wing blogs and typing on this one. – On Twitter @ExtremeLiberal or Email at liberalforreal (at) gmail.com

Lyrics: Elisa C.Martin
Silence is clouding your fat will decide your death
You're crying and dying alone
Deciding... to live or not
Flames burning in your mind
A hell you like to hide
The show will be the end of your suicide
Another path you'll find
To escape this rite inside
World full of gods
-Today I don't know you-
Now, you can't smile
-But it doesn't matter-
Emotions.... your emotions are lost
Passion... passion is gone!
All the world is moving so fast
And your dreams are still in the past
Oh! Can you hear the call
Offering you my soul?
Please now, believe in me
Don't left yourselve down
The moon is high on you
The light is breaking through
A whisper in the air
Reminding that you were born
"still I feel so lost...
I've got nothing left to say
Just take me away"

"Three years ago, Donna (Brittany Snow, John Tucker Must Die) watched in horror as an obsessed predator (Johnathon Schaech, That Thing You Do!) murdered her family. Tonight is her senior prom and although she's anxious about the past, she's excited to celebrate her future with her friends. What Donna doesn't know is that the deranged psychopath has escaped from the asylum. He's returned to hunt her down, intent on killing anyone who gets in his way. As the night races towards its heart-pounding conclusion, the question becomes not who will be prom queen, but who will survive the killer's rampage."--Container.

We're Witnessing Something Special with Jamie Moyer
Posted by Pat Gallen, Wed, June 23, 2010 12:33 PM | Comments: 80
Following Jamie Moyer's eight-inning shutdown of the Indians, he was his stoic self in the clubhouse afterward. As pitchers often are, Moyer's analysis of his performance was monotone in delivery. He answered questions about tying Robin Roberts with his 505th home run allowed, the most all-time. "Today, he's probably smiling at me, or, laughing at me." He also spoke about Jimmy Rollins: "It's a good feeling to have key players back."
But what spoke volumes, to me, was the way he hung around well after he needed to. Most players speak their piece and off they go for the night. They speak in cliches and give the bare minimum in terms of quotes for the paper. Moyer stayed late and shot the breeze with a few writers and flies on the wall like myself. Pretty cool to listen to him just talk about the game like a young kid, when he could have been on his way home.
That is special. He's a student at heart, no matter his age. He enjoys speaking about the game; as he has matured into years where the usual player has been on the golf course for a decade, he continues to love the game with unbridled passion. Moyer may not laugh and smile like Jimmy Rollins, but the joy is there. He just does it in his own way.
Prior to the season, many (including myself) were led to believe Moyer was through. What else could we believe? A 47-year old starter coming off a rough 2009 campaign would surely be a candidate to be canned. He's proven the nay-sayers wrong again as he creeps closer to 50. Will this magic last through seasons end? Hard to say. But it's always fun seeing things that have never been done.

Im having a hard time even coming on here anymore, because the same "fans" spewing the same negativity everyday gets old
….Halladay has been one of the best pitchers in the NL this season, and in his past few starts, gave up some hits
but to say that Halladay has been "worse than expected" is retarded, i guess maybe that he has 6 losses bothers some people
but his wins, innings, k's, etc .. are all up there with the best in the game

Not negative Pat. I root for this team just as hard as anyone. I do not trust Moyer in a big game. Yes, I was shocked what he did against the Yankees. He got crushed against the sox. The Mets laid a beat down on him. We bail him by scoring runs for him. Just being truthful.

Halladay has been very, very good. He has not been heavenly, but he never was. But to call him a disappointment is totally unfair.

Yes, I have had problems with Moyer. Actually, my problem is more with Amaro signing Moyer to a second year, which was stoo-pid. I probably do transpose this hostility onto Moyer where it belongs elsewhere. I guess if someone offered me 8m cool ones to be mediocre, I'd take it, too. He pitched great last night. I want him to keep pitching great.
BUT, I am sick of everyone saying how otherwordly he his for being 47 and pitching in the majors. Good for him. Seriously. But I am really sick of hearing EVERYONE calling him "a great influence on the youngsters", "a second pitching coach", "plays the game the right way". Jesus…enough! And Chris Wheeler has a book of Jamie Moyer cliches that he just repeats over and over again like a broken record. I remember when Wheeler lauded Moyer one day when a batter popped the ball up to the catcher and Moyer was heard to yell "two hands" to Chooch, who was circling under it. "Wow! Did you hear that? Thats just playing the game the right way! Blah blah blah" I mean it was ridiculous. Then Wheels went down and gave Jamie a pedicure after the game.
Remember last year, when Jamie had that little hissy fit after being yanked from the rotation after sporting a lusty 18.38 ERA and then…then…having the unmitigated gall to complain about it???? Evidently, he was under the impression that, when he was given that bed of roses of a contract, that Ruben would permit him to work through his "rough spots". Yeah, let me tell my clients THAT when I screw up. And I'll say it….Moyer doesn't get his second year and Cliff Lee stays.

I'm not sure what you could get for Moyer at this point.

Excellent write up. Moyer has been dealing. The only way he goes if it's to retire a Mariner in a deal for Cliff Lee.

Dipsy, I wasn't happy with the second year, either. But you have to admit….he IS earning it….at least so far this season.
Oh, and let me repeat what I said earlier….300 wins gets him into the Hall. But he won't get to 300.

Hey, you need honest negativity. Its the negative verses the positive that makes this blog so outstanding. We have fun. This is not the end of the world. I beat my kids much less by venting on this blog. My wife still smacks me around a little, but I really like it. The blog is to have some fun, appreciate our differences, break a few stones from time to time and not take it so seriously that it ruins our day. Plus we get some great articles from Pat and the Crew that educate us and also stirs us up. Keep up the good work.

300 wins won't get him into the Hall of Fame … because, regardless of win-total, he's not a Hall of Fame pitcher
He's like a one-time All Star …
The Dipsy .. who, besides Chase Utley, and Roy Halladay .. DO you like?
I feel like you're taking over for the old GEOFF that used to post on here about trading Rollins, Howard, etc.. everyday
Moyer has been around long enough to know that Catchers, on high pops "up the elevator shaft" can sometimes try to snag it, but its spinning too much, and an easy out becomes just another foul ball …. For some reason you don't like Wheeler .. I think because him and Harry didn't get along in 1996? … but of all the announcers, he's easily the most knowledgable about the game, doesn't matter that he didn't play it .. that means that he probably studied it more, unlike Sarge who gives us insights like "you're gonna need some baserunners here..and in order to do that.. you're gonna need some guys to get on base!" …Thanks Sarge, that was really useful .. its gotten to the point where I usually don't even listen to innings 4-5-6- anymore
Moyer has been an "average" pitcher .. true … and thank god he's been an average pitcher, because while Myers, Blanton, Hamels, Happ, etc.. have been injured the past few seasons, he's really bailed us out

I think Moyer will, somehow, somewhere, make it into the Hall of Fame and will get 300 wins. He will make it for his perserverence, and his longevity, which translates into character. Satchel Paige made the HOF, so did Addie Joss after 9 years and dying early of TB. Both had extenuating circumstances. There are a number of pitchers who belong in the HOF, but 300 wins gets ALL OF THEM IN. Look for Blyleven, Kaat and Tiant to also be inducted someday. They deserve it more than Moyer.

Pat….I believe that Kendrick has a good future. I may change my mind, however, based on tonight's performance and wish him demoted to the deep minors. Hey, that is fando. And I admit to being a dumb fan, sometimes. But alway have fun.

I like a lot of players Don M, my good friend and respected poster, but who really cares about the players I like? Or who you like? I like a lot of players including almost all of the Phils. Who wants to read a post about how much someone loves a player.
RE: Wheeler. Without sounding like some kind of snobby so and so, I am more familiar with the story of Chris Wheeler than almost all….I think. No, I'm pretty sure. Harry hated him. Wheels hates Sarge Larry hates Wheels. The organization has kept him on and because of it we have this backwards ass broadcasting schedule where people get moved around to accomodate Wheels and so certain broadcasters don't have to work with him.
Scott Franzke and Larry should be doing TV. But as long as Dave Montgomery is here so is Wheels. Quite frankly, I don't know what either one of them are still doing here.

I couldn't agree with you more, Pat. This game keeps Moyer young, and you know he's got to be in touch with his innocence when he still goes by the name Jamie at the age of 47. hehe

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LILBURN — Though still among Gwinnett County's most dominant basketball teams, evidence that Parkview's girls basketball team is rebuilding was painfully apparent Tuesday night.Erika Joseph scored 17 points and Mia Marshall added eight, but it was too little to stop North Cobb from dominating early and handing the Panthers their first loss this season 54-35 in the championship game of Parkview's 14th annual Tip-Off Classic. The Panthers conceivably might win Region 8-AAAAA a fourth consecutive time, or even their first state championship since 2003, but Tuesday's loss creates one certainty: They won't run the regular-season table at 28-0 like last season. "These girls have to find their own way," Panthers coach Mike McCoy said, resisting the word "rebuilding" to describe replacing four graduated players, including three playing in college. "It's not as much rebuilding as it is this team finding its own niche." Despite beating Riverdale 59-18 and Peachtree Ridge 67-45 in the first two rounds of the tournament, Parkview (2-1) was overwhelmed by unbeaten North Cobb (3-0) from the outset. The Panthers trailed 9-4 after one quarter, 26-13 after two, and by as much as 17 in the third. The Panthers' 10-2 run brought them within 37-28 with 1:26 left in the third quarter, when Katie Carroll made one of two foul shots. But midway through the final period, the Warriors had rebuilt their lead to 20. In contrast, Parkview's boys, seeking their first state playoff appearance in three seasons, stuck with Jonesboro down to the wire, but lost for the first time in their championship game 53-46. The game was the Parkview boys' second consecutive close game, following their 65-63 victory in Monday's semifinal over Peachtree Ridge. Alex Osborn and Carroll both scored four points for Parkview's girls, while Kelsie Stanton added two. North Cobb was led by 14 points from Taylor Gordon and Amber Reeves, 12 by Kira Gordon and 10 by Aundrea Hurst. Parkview's boys led Jonesboro 39-34 a minute into the fourth quarter, but couldn't hold on. The Cardinals' 17-5 run put them up 51-44 with 21 seconds left, and Parkview's desperation shots wouldn't fall. Delano Spencer's 17 points and Elliott Abraham's nine paced the Panthers (3-1), while Cameron Neysmith chipped in eight and Kameron Russell five. Jonesboro (3-0) got 17 from Rasham Suarez and 11 from Patrick Petty.

Average white British male. My 5x entries into Israel have all been relatively quick. My 5x exits however range between (the shortest) 2hrs and (the longest) 4.5hrs. It's included the 'cloth on a stick' twice. My Jewish co-travellers, on the other hand, are waved through with nothing more than a half-hearted smile. It doesn't bother me any more - I know what to expect and the feeble attempts at humiliation no longer work. I just feel sorry for Israel's international standing a little more each time I pass through.

The former NASCAR champion is much smarter these days, although he has plenty of talented colleagues right behind. Johnson, the Sprint Cup points leader, has won three times at Darlington and brother Kyle won this event in 2008. Also among the top 10 starters are past champions Denny Hamlin, Greg Biffle and seven-time winner Gordon.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was 16th fastest, while Danica Patrick had to go to a backup car after hitting the wall in practice and will start 40th for Saturday night's race.
Kyle Busch joked with Johnson after qualifying that the five-time series champions' second-place finish meant the Busch brothers' mother _ drivers' moms typically accompany them during pre-race introductions _ would have to walk across the stage twice instead with her boys on each arm.
"She's happy I finished second," Johnson jabbed with a smile.
Kurt Busch hopes he's got a smile on his face Saturday night in Victory Lane. He says his Furniture Row team is feeling good, knowing how it won here two years back.
"They've just come in here with a lot of confidence," he said.

Success for an executive depends on two things – bringing out the best in people and making good decisions. Effective leaders learn to bring out the best in people. Executive Coaching and Leadership Development help executives do just that by honing their emotional intelligence competencies and strengthening their executive presence. A leadership development program starts with an Emotional Intelligence Assessment to identify leadership strengths and weaknesses, followed by a period of executive coaching, customized to enhance leadership effectiveness and executive presence. Most executives are intelligent, experienced, and have good judgment. But without the benefit of outside perspective and an unbiased sounding board, the best solution is often missed – and a wrong decision can be costly. Executive Coaching – and specifically Strategic Coaching – helps executives reach better decisions faster. A professional Executive Coach offers fresh perspective and objective assessment without ulterior motive or agenda. My unique way of thinking allows me to help my clients reach better decisions faster.

I know I've already drawn the last page of Chapter 19, but I think it might be already packed away. Until I find it, here's some filler! I'm still drawing (rarely, but it does happen), and I'm brain-storming Chapter 20. Hopefully once everything settles down here in the next few weeks, I'll be able to update regularly again.
Ready to Give Up
So I've been working on getting the next page ready, since I know it's LONG overdue. I started coloring it in today, and at one point, I decided to check on the WordPress site. It asked me to update to the latest WordPress. So I did.
And then all the comic files went missing.
Everything else is in place, but for whatever reason, all the comic files are gone, so none of the images will display. Given that this is just the latest in bullshit I've had to deal with this site, I'm about to throw my hands up in disgust, delete the site, and leave a Deviant Art redirect, since my comic is also posted over there and I don't have to put up with this shit.
Odds are, I'll spend the next week or so slowly re-uploading everything. I just really felt the need to bitch right now. Sorry for all the trouble. We'll see what happens.

Archive for the 'BMW 507 Roadster' tag
BMW Museum marks the 60th anniversary of the 507 with a look at what might have been

The BMW 507 is arguably among the best-looking BMWs (if not the best-looking cars) ever put into production. Its Albrecht von Goertz-designed body is intimately familiar to fans of the marque, and six decades after the car's 1955 debut, its design remains timeless. Had U.S. importer Max Hoffman not (strongly) encouraged BMW to use von Goertz, the 507 may have turned out quite differently. In honor of the car's 60th anniversary, a new exhibit at the BMW Museum looks at some alternative takes on the 507.
Max Hoffman is credited with convincing BMW management that the U.S. market needed a car positioned below the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, but above sports cars from brands like Triumph and MG. Basing such a car on the V-8 powered BMW 503 would, in theory, cut development time and shave production cost. Hoffman envisioned the 507 hitting the market at a selling price of $5,000, which he projected would result in annual sales of 5,000 cars in the U.S. alone.
The Ernst Loof-designed BMW 507 prototype.
The task of designing the 507's body initially fell to Ernst Loof, and Hoffman was vocal in his displeasure with Loof's styling. Several designs were reportedly rejected before BMW agreed to hire von Goertz for the job, ultimately satisfying Hoffman's wishes. The 507 debuted in prototype form in 1955, and reviews from the public and press were overwhelmingly positive. A year later, in November of 1956, production began.
Albrecht von Goertz's BMW 507 prototype at the 1955 Frankfurt Auto Show.
The 507 was delivered with the 3.2-liter aluminum alloy V-8 from the 503, tuned to produce an output of 148 horsepower and mated to a close-ratio four-speed manual transmission. That gave the 507 the ability to run from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour (62 MPH) in a tick over 11 seconds (with standard 3.7:1 rear gearing), on the way to a top speed of 122 MPH. By standards of the day, those were respectable numbers, particularly in light of the 507's proposed price point.
Production costs, however, proved higher than anticipated, driving the initial price of the 507 up to $8,988, and to $10,500 by 1959, the final year the car was built. The 507's body was made from hand-formed aluminum panels, meaning that no two cars were identical. The optional hardtop had to be ordered with the car at the time of assembly, since each was crafted specifically to fit the car it would accompany (one reason, perhaps, that few of the 252 BMW 507's built for customers came with hardtops).
Despite the high selling price (which, by 1959, was a mere $428 less than a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster), BMW lost money on every example produced. Hoffman had convinced BMW that the 507 would open up the U.S. market and restore the brand's sporting image, but the model very nearly had the opposite effect on the company. In 1959 the German automaker built just 42,524 automobiles (including 14,444 for export), while reporting a loss of $15 million.
The BMW 3200 Michelotti Vignale.
Despite the BMW's lack of commercial success, Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti worked up a 1957 design study intended as a second-generation 507. Similar to the original in design, but a tad more linear and less muscular, the BMW 3200 Michelotti Vignale debuted at the 1959 Turin Motor Show. What the car may have lost in visual appeal compared to the original, it made up for in lower production cost, with Michelotti promising a 10,098 DM (then $2,416) price reduction for his design. The car never made it into production, and only a single prototype was built.

In recognition of the BMW 507's 60th anniversary, the BMW Museum in Munich, Germany, will host a special exhibit thorough the end of 2015, entitled Family Matters – Draft designs of the BMW 507. An early prototype 507 will be displayed, as will the BMW 3200 Michelotti Vignale, alongside production 507 models and design sketches for a variety of sources.

Rare 1937 Delahaye 135 Competition Court Torpedo Roadster sells for $6.6 million at Amelia Island
1937 Delahaye 135 Competition Torpedo Roadster. Photos by Darin Schnabel, courtesy of RM Auctions.
Delahaye reportedly built just 30 Competition Court chassis, and of these, just two short chassis variants are known to survive. Of these two, just one wears a body tag indicating that illustrator Georges Hamel (or "Geo Ham," as he's more commonly referred to) had a hand in the car's styling, before turning construction over to coachbuilders Figoni et Falaschi. On Saturday, this one-of-a-kind 1937 Delahaye 135 Competition Court Torpedo Roadster crossed the stage at Amelia Island, selling for a record-setting $6.6 million, including buyer's fees.
Built on a "Grand Sport" chassis designed for racing competition, this particular Delahaye was delivered to the automaker in August of 1937 and used for display purposes until 1939, when the car's original 3.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine (rated at 110 horsepower) was replaced by a 3.6-liter (technically, 3,557cc) MS-series inline six-cylinder that produced upwards of 130 horsepower. Thanks to a lawsuit that originated following the 1936 Paris Auto Show, the car's aerodynamic bodywork also carried a brass tag on the right side reading "Creation Figoni-Falaschi-Geo.HAM, modele depose No. 7;" in other words, there could be no question regarding Hamel's involvement in the car's design.
In 1939, chassis 48667 was shipped to New York City, where it was exhibited in the French Pavillion at the 1939 World's Fair. One of the show's visitors was a young Malcolm Pray, and the Delahaye's stunning lines left a lasting impression, to the point where Pray would sketch pictures of the car that had captured his imagination. Originally delivered to New York photographer Bob Grier in 1939, the car was sold to a dealership on Long Island in November of 1963. Repainted in red with black accents, the car's shape was still instantly recognizable, and when an older Malcolm Pray (then a car dealer himself) came upon the Delahaye at a "dealer bazaar" in July of 1964, he purchased the car on the spot.
Pray would own the car until his death in August 2013. Refinished in cream with blue in 1970, the car was used sparingly by Pray and his family and kept largely out of sight until 1994, when it was shown at the Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance in honor of Delahaye's 100th anniversary. In 1995, Malcolm and his wife took the car to Europe, where it participated in the Bordeaux to Paris Rallye and the Louis Vuitton Concours d'Elegance. Known jokingly as Malcolm's "French Mistress," the car remained the crown jewel of the Pray collection, and on Saturday set an RM Amelia Island auction record when it sold for $6.6 million.
The record-setting 1958 BMW 507 Series II Roadster.
Other cars in RM's top-10 included a 1958 BMW 507 Series II Roadster, which sold for a record-setting $2,420,000; a 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster, originally owned by actress Natalie Wood, which sold for $1,842,500; a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT Series II Cabriolet, which sold for $1,760,000; a 1934 Duesenberg Model SJ Convertible Sedan, which sold for $1,567,500; a 1965 Shelby 289 Cobra, which sold for $990,000; a 1965 Shelby Mustang G.T. 350 R, which sold for $984,500; a 1928 Bugatti Type 37A Grand Prix, which sold for $962,500; a 1937 Bugatti Type 57C Roadster, which sold for $902,000; and a 1932 Packard Twin Six Individual Custom Convertible Sedan, which sold for $840,000.

Rare Ferraris, including a 1957 410 Superamerica, headline RM's Arizona sale
With the holiday season upon us, it's a sure sign that a new event season is fast approaching; its symbolic kick-off being the series of auctions in and around Scottsdale, Arizona, in mid-January. Among them is the sale conducted by RM Auctions January 19-20, on the elegant grounds of the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa.
This year, RM boasts a catalog of nearly 150 automobiles, including a a series of rare Ferraris led by the 1957 410 Superamerica (s/n 0671) pictured above. According to RM's description:
Ferrari's coveted Superamerica was regarded as one of the most elite Enzo-era road cars, reserved for its most discerning clientele and offering the ultimate combination of high-performance and bespoke design. The example on offer, one of just six Series II cars, was built specifically for longtime Ferrari patron, Dottore Enrico Wax, the principal in the Genoa firm Wax & Vitale, best known as importers of Johnny Walker Scotch and Connolly leather. Stunning in its design – 0671 SA features a brushed stainless steel roof and fins, polished and vented rocker panels and side grille, and open headlamps – it holds a special place in history as the first new Ferrari road car to be bodied by Scaglietti and the only 410 Superamerica ever bodied by the firm.
RM estimated bidding will land somewhere between $1.75 – $2.25 million.
Complementing the 410 is a fleet of other notable Ferraris, including a 1952 342 America Pinin Farina Coupe (s/n 0246 AL; one of six built and displayed at the 1953 Geneva Motor Show); a 1973 365 GTB/4 Daytona Spyder (s/n 16705); a matching-numbers 1958 250 GT Ellena Berlinetta (s/n 0861); and a 1991 F40 ordered by Lee Iacocca.
If Ferraris are not your cup of tea, how about a 1957 BMW 507 Roadster, a 1930 Duesenberg Model J LWB Dual Cowl Phaeton, a 1966 Shelby Cobra 427, a 1931 Chrysler CG Imperial convertible, a 1914 Rolls-Royce 40/50 Silver Ghost Landaulet by Barker, or a 1953 Chevy Corvette; all found within RM's Scottsdale sale catalog.
