UPDATE:

Very clever! Ann of Sydney Meanderings noticed the RM Auctions sign in front of the car. She went to their website and discovered that it is a "1949 Delahaye (France) Type 175 S Roadster. Sold at a price of $3,300,000 well below the estimate of $4,000,000 to $6,000,000."

The design is by the French firm Saoutchik. This particular Delahaye was owned by actress Diana Dors, who was Britain's answer to Marilyn Monroe.

Here are more photos of this fabulous car.

I remember when cars like this were considered the cars of the future.

I'm gonna go with a Land Whale. Because it's on land, and it kinda looks like a whale. I should know. I used to drive a Land Yacht. And I'm certain I'm nowhere close to being correct.
