Google Street View catches flock of Ferraris in natural habitat


Man, the Google Street View Driver got an eyeful the day he drove by this Maranello Moment. And he captured it all for posterity (and Google Maps) to boot. The gaggle of F430 Scuderias and 360 Challenge Stradales is impressive enough. Throw in the five F40s, three Enzos and a lone F50, and you have yourself a proper stampede of prancing horses. The Street View photos do two things. First, they reinforce our belief that the F40 is infinitely cooler than both its hyper-exotic successors. Second, they have us thinking that on this particular day, Rome's Piazza Santiago del Cile was probably the best-sounding place on planet Earth. Thanks for the tip, Bennayd!

For larger pics w/ better res, see the link below, and put the street view icon on the corner of Piazza Santiago del Cile and Via Giosue Borsi.

It's all software. Notice that the "filter" catches other things too?

That's just nuts! I counted at least 7 Scuderias in those pics though. That has to be one of the biggest gatherings of super-Ferraris ever assembled outside of the factory gates!

The company that funded the development of Google "maps" also funded the license plate software... Well... not really a company, but more of a, shall we say... agency... fo real.

That same software will run your plate if a cop car drives up behind you, with no input from the cop... watch yourself...


At any rate, what a cool catch.
