Inside Line picks top ten cars to be auctioned in Monterey
The Monterey weekend is packed with events for every type of car enthusiast. While the majority will go to simply look at the cars, a select few will make the trek to Northern California to possibly put a new car in the garage. There are no fewer than five different auctions during the weekend - RM, Russo and Steele, Bonhams & Butterfields, Gooding & Company, and Kruse. Hundreds if not thousands of cars will cross the auction block, from Shelby Mustang GT-H Convertibles to a multi-million dollar Jaguar racing prototype. Inside Line's Ken Gross has put together a list of the ten best cars up for sale at the Monterey auctions, and it has us drooling in anticipation of seeing the cars in person. Included are the following: 1938 Bugatti 57SC Atalante, 1906 REO Model A Touring, 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spyder, 1960 Jaguar E2A, 1939 Talbot-Lago T150C-SS, 1969 Porsche 908/2, 1957 Chrysler Diablo Concept, 1954 Bentley Continental R, 1972 Lamborghini Miura SV, and 1973 Ferrari Daytona Spyder.

I wish I had the money to attend (and bid!). A friend of mine has a 1967 Lamborghini Miura and I would love to have the SV that's going on the block this weekend. I hope whoever gets the car will treasure what a fine car a Miura is and appreciate the joy of its performance.

I wish I had the money to buy them all and a house with a garage large enough to put them in (and preferable a race track to drive them every now and again, and a mechanic JIC)

Anyone else notice the McQueen 908/2 was quietly pulled from the Bonhams auction?
