Ferrari Testa Rossas on the Tour d’Elegance

When Pebble Beach puts together a specialized class of cars the results are usually impressive and this especially holds true for the 250 Testa Rossas.

This year Pebble Beach will have over 20 on the field including almost every factory version. For those in the know this means all the TR58s, all the TR59s, all the TR59/60s and all the TRI/61s.

This morning many brave owners endured the wet weather to take the opportunity to join Pebble’s Tour d’Elegance down the Pacific Coast Highway.

We endured the wet and cold to bring you our version of the Testa Rossas at the Tour d’Elegance.
