Anybody has ever seen a picture of Elvis with his black Dino Ferrari?? I have seen the car on the other side of Graceland in the car museum but I have never seen a photo with Elvis driving it or on the side of it.

I dream a world where man no other man
will scorn. Where LOVE will bless the earth
and peace its paths adorn...
I am surprised, we have seen many pictures of Elvis with numerous cars but never with his black Ferrari. I wonder if he liked driving it or maybe he prefered his studz!!

Good question. And no i don't recall seeing Elvis beside the car or even driving it. I know he must have driven it atleast once,otherwise why would he buy it? I'll search through my pictures and see if there is a photo of him driving it, or even looking at it. LOL
Very good question and I've not ever come across a pic of Elvis w/this car, though there are pics of him and the yellow one.
I wonder why?
Never seen a picture of Elvis in his Black Ferrari, only with the Yellow identical one, anyhow, I read once a stroy about Elvis crashing the black one as he did liked to speed hard in that one, anytrue about thts?
This is not a Ferrari but a yellow Panterra, unless I am wrong since I am not a car specialistI never read that he crashed the black Ferrari but I remember reading something about REALLY speeding up on Santa Monica Blvd raging about the 3 guys writing the book about him (if my memory is correct

How terrible would it have been if he had ended up going out the same way as James Dean??Originally Posted by PaulV.
I wonder how that would have changed people's perception of him.
OK, here's what I found on the Yellow Pantera; this was a car made by Ford & it had a 351-C engine built with mostly Mustang parts. The performances of this car at the time could rival those of a Ferrari but the car cost much less.

Anybody knows where he kept the Black Dino Ferrari?? If he kept it in Los Angeles maybe that's the reason why there are no pictures of him driving it. If he would have been driving around Memphis and going through the gates surely somebody would have had the chance to take pictures.

How many times did Elvis get in a crash and with what car(s)? Also what year(s)? If anyone knows
EDIT: WooHoo, I am now a Cadillac King. LOL
"When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was a hero in the movie. So every dream that I ever dreamed has come true a hundred times. I learned very early in life that without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend; without a song. So I keep singing a song." - Elvis Presley
The yellow one is a Pantera that Elvis bought in `74 and he gave it to Linda Thompson.
The black Ferrari bought Elvis October 5 1976 in Hollywood,
For those of you who dont know what car we are refering to, its this one we wants to see on a picture with ElvisIts a cool car

The Black Ferrari was in Californien and as far as i know Priscilla was the one driving it when Elvis was`nt in town. Hope that helped.

I don't ever recall Elvis getting in any accidents, at least none that I heard of.
This is from '200 Cadillacs', doesn't the last car look like the Dino....
and Graceland in the background....?
The black 1975 Ferrari is my favorite car of EP. I love those rims!

Miss Clawdy, I believe that photograph was taken right after Elvis passed away. By the way.

I didn't know that, thank's for the info, Paul.
Miss Clawdy.... This picture was taken in `81 when they were preparing the opening of Graceland as a museum.
