The Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso is a GT car which was manufactured by Italian automaker Ferrari from 1962[3] to 1964. Sometimes known as the GTL, GT/L or just Lusso, it is larger and more luxurious[α] than the 250 GT Berlinetta. The 250 GT Lusso, which was not intended to compete in sports car racing, is considered to be one of the most elegant Ferraris.

A little bit of Hollywood cool glamour that ended up in Britain.

James Coburn with his 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder, and the same Ferrari today. The original owner took delivery in Brussels in 1961, with the color being Nero Black. Coburn bought the Ferrari in 1963 and owned it until 1989. During Coburn's ownership, he repainted it three times, first dark blue, then silver, and finally burgundy. It has since been returned to its factory color, Nero Black. In 2008, former Radio 1 Dj and "Top Gear" host Chris Evans bought the car at auction for a reported $11,000,000. What Evans didn't know is that the Ferrari didn't have its original engine under the hood. Evans sold the car in 2010 for about half of what he paid for it two years earlier. That owner had the car for sale again as of March of this year. Coburn had a pair of Ferraris in the 1960s, his other one was a 250 GT Lusso. James Coburn, James Garner, and Steve McQueen all starred together in "The Great Escape" in 1963. All three bought Ferraris around the same time and would drive in unison around the Hollywood Hills

Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina Cabriolet

In 1957, Marilyn Monroe received a gift that would become a symbol of her glamorous life: a stunning Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina Cabriolet. The car, painted in a shimmering silver, perfectly matched Marilyn's iconic style. She loved the freedom it gave her, the wind in her hair as she cruised along the coast of California.

Marilyn was often seen driving her Ferrari around Hollywood, turning heads wherever she went. One day, while out for a drive, she noticed a young boy staring at her car in awe. She pulled over and invited him to sit in the driver's seat. The boy's eyes lit up with excitement as Marilyn explained the car's features and let him honk the horn.

From that day on, Marilyn and the boy developed an unlikely friendship. She would often take him for drives along the beach, the boy giggling with delight as the Ferrari sped along the shoreline. Marilyn cherished these moments, away from the glare of the spotlight, just enjoying the simple pleasure of a drive with a friend.

Years later, long after Marilyn had passed away, the now-grown man would look back on those drives with fondness. He would always remember Marilyn Monroe, not as the glamorous movie star, but as the kind-hearted woman who took the time to make a young boy's dreams come true. And he would never forget the beauty of that silver Ferrari, a symbol of a friendship that transcended fame and fortune...
