I’ll probably catch a lot of flack for this but if you can only have one to do it all, you could do a lot worse. BMW X5 M50i: 0-60 in less than 4 seconds and 160 top speed. I love mine.

If it was the armoured version it would be extra special. Nice all rounder as is. Pity about the icicles. Should have added it is summer in the land of RHD cars so winter is as far from the mind as it can get.

Been a while so I'm bumping.
My daughter got her first ride in a 911 over the weekend and my brother in law picked up a bootleg Ariel Atom lol.
It is an Exocet. So a tube frame chassis with a (turbo) Miata drivetrain.

The 911 whale tail is the mandatory aerodynamic pairing to the front spoiler - if you have one without the other, straight line balance will go funky on you... And the front spoiler is here for stability.

Net - who cares - they both look good, with or without the tail!!!!

Check out an even less known Lamborghini here

I like the Islero, it's rather like my favourite car that I've owned, the Lotus Excel -- although the Lambo has more cylinders 🙁

That really is an astonishingly ugly car, it looks like an old Honda Civic stretched out

yup. As the Lucid Air is currently available ( at least where I am) and eclipses it in every metric people are wondering why the EQS even exists.

the general consensus is traditional car makers are stuck in certain thinking and new guys understand what can be re thought on EV’s.

Lucid is basically Tesla 2.0 and is ex Tesla guys that saw too many issues with Teslas internal structure so they literally are able to use knowledge gained from Tesla and improve on the horrible management structure and design inefficiencies of Tesla.
