Vroooooooom!

In the Imperial Palace Casino there's a museum of old cars (you might call them vintage) on the top floor, or anyway, above the casino. I wonder how they got the cars there.

First, before you rush over there, flip through some of the Las Vegas magazines, or just plain ask for a free entrance coupon. They charge a couple of dollars (7 or 8 or so, from memory) but there's free entrance vouchers everywhere. So if you actually paid to get in - shame on you and your flat wallet.

They got over 350 cars, including Ferrari, Maserati, Ford Shelby, Cadillac... the lot. Most of them have price tags, just in case you won big downstairs. Oh by the way for Elivis fans - they got a car that apparently once belonged to The King himself.

There's also a memorabilia shop. Old car books, licence plates, you name it, they got it.

Should you be more interested in newer cars, check out the Ferrari-Maserati dealership n the Wynn Las Vegas. I briefly visited it last time (may 2005) and they had about 12 expensive cars there, including a Mercedes. The top attraction was a black Ferrari Enzo, property of Steve Wynn. A nice hand-me-down!

In the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace there's also a modern car exhibition. I haven't seen it yet, but I'll check it out next time I visit Las Vegas. And that's in 3 weeks, so stay tuned!

Hi there. Please don't steal my bandwidth! If you want to use the Vegas sign as your icon, please save it to your own server, rather than taxing my web server every time someone visits your blog. Thanks!

Hi Kevin,

never meant any harm - I actually didn't know that I did anyone harm.
I have no own server to put it on but I have removed the sign.
