Newport, Rhode Island is most famous for the majestic mansions that grace Bellevue Avenue. The Tennis Hall of Fame is also on Bellevue and in between them is the
Audrain Automobile Museum.
I liked this auto collection as it was all in one big room and the collection rotates every three months.
A stunning 1953 Ferrari 250 Europa. If one ever comes to auction and you are in the mood to purchase one, get ready to spend around $3.000.000. This was easily my favorite car in the collection.
The Bugatti Veyron, at one time the car with the highest top speed in the world.
The ultra rare and fast, Saleen S7. It has a Ford 7.0 liter (427 cubic inch) V8 and a 6-speed manual transmission.
One of famous cars ever manufactured, the Duesenberg. Production lasted from 1921 - 1937 and was extremely expensive for its time. Prices started at $13.000 and could exceed $25.000. This car unattainable for most of the populace as the average salary in 1925 was less than $1.300.
You literally had to be a movie star such as Gary Cooper to afford one. His Model J sold for $22.000.000!
I did not know this saying originated from the car itself!
