    About $500,000---$600,000 should do the trick.

    The Saleen is a Saleen SSC, of which 160 were made in 1989.

    1975(?) Ferrari 512BB (Boxer)

    You're close but that's the earlier version of the Boxer Berlinetta, known as the 365 GTBB/4(1973-76).

    The name is easily confused with the earlier 365GTB/4 popularly known as the "Daytona" except that they're completely different cars with different layouts.

    The later 512BB featured a bigger engine (1976-81) and later fuel injection (512BBi-'81-84). 512s generally did not have the black lower body.

    Looks like a 1984 or so Honda Accord. I don't think the model with the pop-up lights arrived until 1987.

    Yeah I don't see myself having that kind of money anytime soon and even if I did I would have a hard time justifying spending it on a car now matter how rare.

    I'm going to guess it's an '82-83 Accord. IIRC the '81-85 was the same design, but I think they tweaked the front-end a bit for the '84-85 style. I could be wrong though.

    It's an '82, the first year of the 2nd Gen (in the US). The hideaway headlight cars (Gen 3) were '86 on.

    BMW M5.. '89-'94 model... The contour wheels make me think it's later in that range..

    I knew the '82 Accord.. Of course, I bought one new.. :)

    Yep, that's the E34 version of the M5 which debuted in 1989 but didn't get to NA until '91. Wikipedia sez we stopped getting it in '93 but other markets got 'em thru '95. This was the last M5 to use an in-line six.

    Is the lead new car a 612? Car at front left appears to be a 275GTB. Car behind the 612 looks like a 250 variant (?). Behind that is maybe a 212 variant (?), same as behind the 275. Behind the 212 in the middle is a Daytona, then it gets too blurry on my low res display. I am unsure about what leads the right row...second car is an Enzo followed by a 575 (?), maybe another 275, behind that a F40, and from there, too blurry again.

    The lead car is indeed a 612 Scaglietti, the 599GTB looks similar but a bit more aggressive. Behind it is a 330 GTE, (AKA 2+2 or GT America)if you look carefully it appears to be the early four headlight version (ca. 1964), behind it is a dark blue 212 with a Touring body(early 50s), followed by a Daytona (365 GTB/4) and three 275GTBs, the yellow one is a Spider, sandwiched between the two coupes.

    The second row is headed by a red 275 GTS, you've pretty much pegged the rest of the row except that the 575 is a Barchetta (spider).

    LOL, entirely true from what I've heard.

    Kfdyx, is probably right, it looks like Jaqui Bisset in La Nuit Americaine (Day for Night).

    New for 2008 Focus.

    Although, just a refresh of the current model, not the new version that has been available in Europe for the past couple of years.

    EDIT: Guess there wasn't enough room on the grille for 3 horizontal bars.

    "Although, just a refresh of the current model, not the new version that has been available in Europe for the past couple of years. "

    Yeah, what gives? Why not just build a single model for both markets, especially when the design work has been done in Europe for the newer model?

    I don't get it ... but then apparently neither does Ford. (and I drive a Ford)
