I've never seen panel gaps used as a design feature. That's one way to leverage Italian build quality, I guess.

I bought a BMW and feel like part of the bourgeois as a result. I've been tipping more and trying to be consciously nicer to assuage that guilt. It's totally going to get burned down during a class war.

Oh, and a vagina clock of course It also makes, shall we say, quite a sound. Driving from the Frankfurt airport nach Hause with my dad in his little supercharged Polo E, that weird-rear end thing stops beside us at a light, rattling our mirrors. Dad had a quick chat with the dude driving, custom exhaust and a tune. Rrrrr-aoooowwww, rur, rur, rur, rur.

The mid-90s Ghibli was the best version of the "tarted up Bi Turbo" motif.

How have I never heard of the Shamal before? It looks like a Delta and a fox body had a baby. I’m sure it’s bigger than a Delta but I can’t help picturing it as hatchback sized

What does the bed look like? Can you get another closer photo of it? Does the gas tank bulge into the bed, or is the bed fairly flat? I guess you don't have much sticking up around the wheel wells because of the leaf spring, although I assume it still has shock absorbers in the wheel well.

Ferrari sucks, man. https://driving.ca/ferrari/auto-news/news/ferrari-allegedly-sends-cease-and-desist-to-many-who-rotary-swapped-456 quote:A New Zealand man says he’s been issued a cease-and-desist order from Ferrari for modifying his 456 GT in a way the Italian brand does not agree with. Do Ferrari not understand that when you sell a product it becomes the property of the person who bought it? Dude didn't sign any contracts, dickheads.

Weren't they one of the few companies who also deny owners to post track times, like ever? IIRC Clarkson-time Top Gear always joked about that they are not allowed to post Ferrari track times, and once a private person gave them his Ferrari to time it, Ferrari threatened the owner that he will never again get another Ferrari if they go through with it. Pretty pathetic.

If you ignore the C&D, they'll (allegedly) ramp it up to hiring hitmen so maybe think about that too.

There was rumors in the 90's about a guy in europe that was making Ferrari replicas and when he ignored their demands to stop it, he wound up dead. I think I read it in Car and Driver but have been unable to find any hard evidence with the power of the internet!

Oh yeah, I think that was overblown that everything could be duplicated/counterfeited type poo poo in Russia or something. The one that gave me most laughs was having to order another fcar to get in line to order an 812.
