5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than "The Last Open Road", 2 April 2003
By 
Peter Fenelon - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Montezuma's Ferrari: And Other Adventures (Last Open Road) (Hardcover)
The tale of young mechanic Buddy Palumbo and his journey through life (and the fifties racing scene) continues, picking up where we left off at the end of The Last Open Road with his engagement, and heading rapidly south to the Carrera Panamericana, the mad road race through Mexico, and then wandering through the rest of the sports car racing world.

The racing detail is as crisp as ever, Buddy's gradual realisation that the world outside Passaic NJ has something to offer is charming, most of the favourite characters from The Last Open Road are still around (as are many of the historical figures) and all in all this is more of the same - splendid, brilliantly readable fun.

Buy all three. You'll love them.

5.0 out of 5 stars More of the same...thank goodness, 5 Dec 1999
By John D'angelo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Montezuma's Ferrari: And Other Adventures (Last Open Road) (Hardcover)
If you read "The Last Open Road" and enjoyed it, you'll enjoy "Montezuma's Ferrari" as well. There's more adventures involving an increasingly worldly and less awkward Buddy. Although this book would stand alone, it has more meaning after first reading Open Road. They are both books that make you laugh out loud in the wrong places...like airplanes and public transportation. Unfortunately, if you're like me, the book is so entertaining it ends all too quickly. And the ending is a little abrupt. So If you're reading Burt, let us please have some more.

4.0 out of 5 stars For all lovers of "The Last Open Road", 22 Jun 2000
By John A. Lefcourte - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Montezuma's Ferrari: And Other Adventures (Last Open Road) (Hardcover)
The sequel to "The Last Open Road" it is a must read for readers who loved it. As a stand alone book it isn't quite as good and might not be appreciated as much if read by itself. "The Last Open Road" is multi-dimensional, it is a great car tale and also a coming of age story of a young man who wants to be a sportscar mechanic and is pursuing a girlfriend at the same time. All three threads are intertwined. The book is wonderfully evocative of time and place, you can smell and feel the summer nights which he describes. In "Montezuma's Ferrari" the protagonist is a successful mechanic and married so the focus is mostly on the car tales and the descriptions are not as engrossing but the book is still wonderful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sports Car Racin' Fans Rejoice-Here's more BS (Levy that is), 26 Oct 1999
By Dom Miliano - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Montezuma's Ferrari: And Other Adventures (Last Open Road) (Hardcover)
This book picks up where "Last Open Road" leaves off - literally, so it's probably a good idea to read them in order. The trip to Mexico is a great tale and it's worth reading the book just for that. There isn't quite as much energy or pure joy in this book as the first, but it's still a hoot. I suspect that we will see a volume 3 of the tales of Buddy, Big Ed, and the rest of the crowd - natch - and I'll probably buy it and enjoy it too - no lie!

September '02 Update! BS Levy is at it again. The third edition is out - I picked up a copy yesterday (Labor Day) at Lime Rock Park and will read it this weekend. It's called "The Fabulous Trashwagon" and I can't wait!
