Aston Martin Valkyrie

2022 Aston Martin

Valkyrie

Gloss black Aston Martin Valkyrie parked on the shoulder of 17-Mile Drive with the Pacific breaking behind it. Cosworth's 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 sits under a body that is really just a set of aerodynamic surfaces stretched over a Formula 1 tub — the underfloor venturi tunnels are so deep the cabin looks bolted on as an afterthought. Shot rear three-quarter with the dihedral doors open, then in profile and head-on against the fog line.

McLaren Senna

2019 McLaren

Senna

A Ventura Blue McLaren Senna shot along the Pacific coastline at 17-Mile Drive. Overcast light wrapped the carbon bodywork in soft gradients, letting the aero — the swan-neck wing, the dihedral doors, the exposed weave — speak for itself against grey surf and rock.

Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

2013 Lamborghini

Sesto Elemento

One of only nine Sesto Elementos ever built, and one of just two made road legal anywhere in the world. Raw forged-composite bodywork everywhere you look — no paint, just carbon weave catching hard California sun, with those signature red triangles on the nose and a red Alcantara cockpit built around a fixed carbon tub. Shot in an ordinary parking lot beside a Gulf-liveried McLaren, engine bay open over the naturally aspirated V10, exposed pushrods and all.

Ferrari F40

1990 Ferrari

F40

The last car Enzo Ferrari signed off on, sitting low on polished split-rim wheels outside the Monterey Plaza Hotel. Kevlar and carbon panels over a tube frame, twin turbos hanging off a 2.9-litre V8, and nothing else — no traction control, no power steering, no leather. Shot head-on under the sky bridge, in profile against the hotel colonnade, and tight on the NACA ducts and slatted engine cover. It even collected a Monterey parking citation while we worked, which felt entirely appropriate.

Koenigsegg Regera

2019 Koenigsegg

Regera

White over exposed blue-tinted carbon, parked under the sky bridge on Cannery Row with the California flag hanging overhead. The Regera throws out the gearbox entirely — a single fixed ratio, a twin-turbo V8 and three electric motors making well over 1,500 horsepower with no shifts at all. Shot head-on at kerb height, in profile against the hotel wall, and tight on the swan-neck wing, the shield badge and that purple mark on the rear haunch.

Pagani Utopia

2024 Pagani

Utopia

A Pagani Utopia idling through a downtown parking structure, quad exhaust glowing under red ceiling light and those quad-pod headlights burning holes in the dark. Bare carbon over silver, tucked between Camrys and concrete — the most theatrical car on earth in the least theatrical place on earth. Shot head-on as it rolled out, then in profile and from behind as the tail lights bounced off wet asphalt.

McLaren F1 GTR Longtail

1997 McLaren

F1 GTR Longtail

The final evolution of the F1 — stretched nose and tail, a lighter carbon tub, sequential gearbox and a body that looks nothing like the road car it came from. This is chassis 27R in Warsteiner colours, wearing the number 27 and a 2023 Pebble Beach Tour d'Elegance R-10 plate on the headlight. Found parked on the dirt shoulder of a 17-Mile Drive back road in the morning fog, doors up, then shot tight on the GTR badge, the quad exhausts and the M-Approved script under the tail lights.

Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa

1958 Ferrari

250 Testa Rossa

A dark green 250 Testa Rossa sitting on a quiet Pebble Beach lane under the cypress and Monterey pine, Italian plate PO1245 MI still on the nose. Flat overcast light rolled softly across the hand-formed pontoon bodywork — the yellow Scuderia shields, the Jaeger tach and wood-rim Nardi wheel, the tan leather buckets, and the wire wheels tucked under those signature fenders.

Apollo Intensa Emozione (IE)

2018 Apollo

Intensa Emozione (IE)

One of eleven Apollo IEs in existence, sitting in a Pebble Beach lodge driveway under flat marine-layer light. Naked gloss carbon everywhere, red-lipped centerlocks over Michelin slicks, and that insect-like split rear wing feeding a naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V12 that spins to 9,000 rpm. Shot head-on as it sat, then low on the front fender, tight on the quad-vent rear deck, and in profile against the cypress with an orange Senna GTR for company.

Lexus LFA

2012 Lexus

LFA

A white Lexus LFA parked alone on a coastal turnout at Pebble Beach, headlights on under a heavy marine layer. Flat grey light suited it — soft gradients over the carbon-fibre bodywork, the deployed rear wing, the forged silver wheels over red calipers, and those triple stacked exhausts sitting dead centre over the Pacific.

McLaren Senna MSO Can-Am

2019 McLaren

Senna MSO Can-Am

One of only three MSO Can-Am Sennas ever built, tribute to McLaren's Can-Am dominance and to Denny Hulme, whose signature sits above the number 5 roundel on the rear haunch. The Can-Am spec adds a full carbon roof scoop, a taller polished swan-neck wing with Can-Am endplates and a louvred engine cover. Caught rolling on 17-Mile Drive with the Pacific behind it, then static on the shoulder with the doors up and the water breaking on the rocks.

Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 'L'Aura'

2023 Bugatti

Chiron Super Sport 'L'Aura'

A one-off Chiron Super Sport wearing hand-laid orange linework that flows over red paint like heat off a filament. Shot entirely after sundown around Pebble Beach — headlights burning through the porte-cochère, taillight bar smeared across wet stone, and that 1,600-horsepower W16 idling under a canopy of lit oaks. Night is the only time this livery really moves.

Ferrari Enzo & LaFerrari

2003 / 2015 Ferrari

Enzo & LaFerrari

Two generations of Ferrari flagship parked nose-to-nose on the 17-Mile Drive coastline — Rosso Corsa Enzo alongside a Giallo Modena LaFerrari, both with doors up. Flat marine-layer light kept the reds and yellows honest and let the shapes talk: the Enzo's F1-nose and quad taillights against the LaFerrari's knife-edge aero, framed through weathered fence rails and the grey Pacific.

Porsche 962C Leyton House

1988 Porsche

962C Leyton House

A genuine Kremer-run Porsche 962C in full Leyton House turquoise, parked on the 17-Mile Drive coastline with its canopy door swung open. Group C aero, gold BBS centerlocks on Goodyear slicks, Shell and Cibié decals still race-worn — flat marine-layer light let the livery and the long tail read exactly as they did on track.

Lotec Sirius

2000 Lotec

Sirius

The only Lotec Sirius ever built, parked on the 17-Mile Drive coastline with its scissor door raised. Silver over blue leather, twin-turbo Mercedes V12 behind the cabin, deep-dish BBS mesh wheels and a hand-formed body that looks like nothing else on earth. Flat marine-layer light suited it perfectly — no glare, just soft gradients rolling across the aluminium-look panels, the quad headlights, and that carbon Sirius sill plate.

Ferrari LaFerrari

2015 Ferrari

LaFerrari

Giallo Modena over black, butterfly doors up on the 17-Mile Drive coastline with rally roundels still on the flanks. Heavy marine layer flattened the light and let the hybrid hypercar's surfacing — the knife-edge nose, the sculpted rear haunches, the black five-spokes — carry every frame, with an Enzo parked alongside for company.

SSC Tuatara Striker & Aggressor

2023 SSC

Tuatara Striker & Aggressor

A pair of SSC Tuataras parked side by side on the Pebble Beach coastline under a heavy marine layer — the lime-accented Striker beside the silver-and-red Aggressor, both with clamshells and canopy doors open. Flat grey light let the details carry it: the twin TUATARA plenums over the twin-turbo V8, inboard Penske dampers and red springs, exposed carbon weave, and those knife-thin winglets against the Pacific.

SSC Tuatara Striker & Aggressor

2023 SSC

Tuatara Striker & Aggressor

Same pair, different world. Long after the crowds cleared, the two Tuataras sat under a hotel pergola in Monterey with nothing but sodium light and ferns for company — the lime-striped carbon Striker and the silver-and-red Aggressor, wings up, hunting nothing. Shot handheld on long exposures: the paint went liquid, the accent lines turned to filament, and the whole lot felt like a stakeout that neither car intended to end.

Apollo EVO

2024 Apollo

EVO

The Apollo EVO on Carmel-by-the-Sea's Monte Verde street during car week — a naturally aspirated V12 wrapped in a body that looks closer to a fighter jet than a road car. Copper-orange over exposed carbon, dihedral doors up in front of the white stucco and green shutters, an iridescent windshield throwing rainbows across the cockpit, and a rear deck stacked with wings, blades and a glowing light bar over Connecticut dealer plates.

Maserati MC12

2005 Maserati

MC12

One of just 50 road cars, shot in its factory Bianco Fuji and blue livery on the 17-Mile Drive coastline. Flat overcast light let the long tail, roof snorkel, and teardrop hood vents read as pure sculpture against the Pacific.

Lamborghini Diablo SV

1998 Lamborghini

Diablo SV

Giallo over black Alcantara, scissor doors up on the 17-Mile Drive coastline. Overcast Pacific light kept the yellow clean and let the SV's details — the black side graphics, the fixed rear wing, the deep-dish OZ wheels, and that gated V12 cabin — carry the frame.

Eccentrica V12

2024 Eccentrica

V12

Acid green over white leather, doors up under a fogbow on the Monterey coast. Early light and sea mist gave the restomod Diablo's reworked bodywork a soft glow — white five-spokes, gated shifter, and that naturally aspirated V12 sitting under glass.

McLaren & Bugatti P1 HDK & Chiron Super Sport

2024 McLaren & Bugatti

P1 HDK & Chiron Super Sport

Lanzante's P1 HDK — the road-legal reinterpretation of the P1 GTR, with its fixed swan-neck wing, exposed carbon flanks and burnt-orange cabin — pulled off 17-Mile Drive between two Bugatti Chiron Super Sports, one in black over Bugatti blue, the other in pure white. Three of the most extreme road cars ever built, idling on cracked coastal asphalt while the marine layer burned off over the Pacific. Shot at first light with the sun cutting through the cypress line.

Apollo & McLaren Intensa Emozione / Senna GTR

2018 & 2019 Apollo & McLaren

Intensa Emozione / Senna GTR

Two track weapons idling on the same Pebble Beach lodge driveway in the fog: the orange-and-white number 12 Senna GTR nose-out on the kerb, and a gloss black Apollo IE sat beside it looking like something that escaped a wind tunnel. Shot wide to keep the cypress and clipped hedges in frame, then again from behind as the GTR was walked out on its UK plate.

McLaren Senna GTR

2019 McLaren

Senna GTR

A track-only McLaren Senna GTR in orange, white and bare carbon, wearing number 12 and a Brazilian flag on the front fender — a quiet nod to Ayrton. Rolled out onto a Pebble Beach lodge driveway in the marine layer, its full-width rear wing and dive planes look absurd sat next to hedges and flower planters. Shot head-on, tight on the Richard Mille livery and Senna script, down on the splitter, and in full profile with a black Senna GTR waiting behind it.

Bugatti & Ferrari Chiron / F40

2017 & 1990 Bugatti & Ferrari

Chiron / F40

A Bugatti Chiron in black over French Racing Blue parked nose-to-tail with a Rosso Corsa Ferrari F40, both fresh out of the same enclosed transporter on a grey Monterey morning. Three decades between them: one all riveted composite, louvred glass and turbo lag, the other 1,500 quad-turbocharged horsepower wrapped in carbon and precision. Shot in the paddock while the crews unloaded, tents and trucks still going up around them.

McLaren MCL38 — Lando Norris #4

2024 McLaren

MCL38 — Lando Norris #4

Lando Norris' McLaren F1 car — the papaya-and-anthracite MCL38 in full Chrome, OKX, Dell and Darktrace livery — sitting on an ordinary Los Angeles side street outside a parking structure. No paddock, no grandstands: just kerb paint, cracked asphalt and a Jeep parked a few feet away. Shot low and tight on the front wing endplates, the Pirelli slicks with their Google-coloured wheel covers, and that Darktrace rear wing catching the last of the evening light.

Porsche & BMW 911 RSR / M8 GTE

2019 Porsche & BMW

911 RSR / M8 GTE

Factory GTLM machinery rolled out of the transporters on a grey Monterey morning. The Coca-Cola 911 RSR — Tandy, Pilet, Makowiecki above the door — sits mid-engined and impossibly wide on white centre-locks, that full-width PORSCHE wing swallowing the frame. Behind it the BMW M8 GTE in Motorsport blue and red, carbon splitter scraping the tarmac, twin pipes venting through the sill. No ropes, no stage lighting, just crew pushing million-dollar race cars across gravel before the crowds arrive.

Porsche 911 GT1 Strassenversion

1997 Porsche

911 GT1 Strassenversion

A road-legal Le Mans car sitting on a quiet Monterey driveway under a low grey marine layer. The GT1 barely resembles the 911 it borrows its name from — a carbon tub, a mid-mounted twin-turbo flat-six, and bodywork stretched flat and wide over gold BBS centre-locks. Shot from every angle it earns: the head-on stance under the cypress trees, the rear wing towering over the tail, and the hard details of vents, louvres and that hand-painted script on the quarter panel.

Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Roadster

1999 Mercedes-Benz

CLK GTR Roadster

One of six CLK GTR Roadsters, sitting in raw morning sun against the grey concrete of a design-district industrial block. Homologation special turned open-top road car: the Le Mans-derived 6.9-litre V12 behind the seats, the roll hoops standing in for a roof, and those gold BBS wire-look wheels tucked under fenders that are pure GT1 racer. Silver on concrete, nothing else in the frame — which is exactly how this car deserves to be seen.

Maserati 200SI

1957 Maserati

200SI

A works-bodied 200SI idling on the drive outside The Lodge at Pebble Beach, red paint still wet-looking under the marine layer. Fantuzzi aluminium over a twin-cam four, knock-off wire wheels, a single aero screen and a cockpit that is mostly bare metal, red leather and a wood-rimmed wheel. Fewer than thirty were built for privateer sports car racing, and this one still gets driven to where it is parked — which is the whole point.

Ferrari Daytona SP3

2023 Ferrari

Daytona SP3

Caught the moment a Daytona SP3 rolled backward down the ramps of a Reliable Carriers trailer onto the sand lot at Monterey. No ropes, no stage, no crowd control — just that Rosso Magma bodywork and the louvered rear deck emerging from a dark trailer under flat morning marine layer. Ferrari built 599 of these as a tribute to the 330 P3/4, and seeing one delivered like cargo is somehow more honest than seeing it polished on a concours lawn.

Lamborghini Aventador SV

2016 Lamborghini

Aventador SV

Bianco Isis over blue SV graphics, parked where the 17-Mile Drive pavement runs out and the Pacific takes over. Flat coastal light suits this car — no glare to fight, just hard creases, that fixed carbon wing, and a naturally aspirated V12 sitting still while the surf does the moving. Montana plates, a Skyline and a Delta Integrale for company, and a morning that never quite burned off.

Ferrari Enzo

2003 Ferrari

Enzo

Every August, this red Ferrari Enzo leaves Boston before dawn and points its nose at Monterey — a 3,000-mile pilgrimage to car week, done the way Enzo Ferrari would have approved, on real public roads through real weather. The Massachusetts dealer plates and the "California or Bust!" decal across the rear are the only instructions: the V12 does the rest. The run raises money for charity each year, turning one of 400 flagships into a rolling fundraiser that crosses a continent so people can see a hypercar the way it was meant to be seen — not roped off in a vault, but parked curbside on a warm, string-lit street in Carmel, neon storefronts reflecting off the carbon-composite paint, still hot from the road.
