While I was waiting to sign up to drive a Porsche, and while Nick was busy driving the bewitching new SRT Viper, I spent most of my brisk Florida morning at Amelia Island chasing after cars that were entering the hotel grounds. While I was running around, I found myself chasing down this gorgeous little number. This marks only the second time I’ve found myself close to a 212, one of the first well-known cars Ferrari produced. This particular car is a 212 Export Berlinetta wearing its original Touring coachwork in a deep, rich burgundy hue with a rather Spartan tan interior, wire wheels, and details that kept my attention for a solid amount of time. It may have been parked among a Lamborghini Aventador, Porsche 918, and a Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona, but the little 212 had absolutely no problem drawing a crowd to itself in front of the Ritz-Carlton. Enjoy the photos.

I’ve never seen those ads which appear over the bottom of some of the photos. A beautiful car, but those ads take away from the photos.

Jeff, just click the little X and it will go away. We realize ads may be a tad inconvenient, but the revenue we get from allowing ads on our site helps give us money to operate. This is something we all do in our free time, and Im sure you can understand that plane tickets and hotel rooms do not come free.
