Default Off Topic: barely used never registered XJ220 is stunning, and

I'm not even old. I'm 44 and hate almost all technology, so I accidentally pressed "post" prior to finding the right name of the site.

"https://Thedrive.com" has 100% taken any throne from other online publications. I still like the single dudes like Doug DeMuro, but The Drive has hired so many ex Jalopnik writers. That was my "and".

That being said, I found this on one of their newsletters, and this is the first time I am gaga and 100% blown away by this car, simply for the model photography.

I love replying to my own emails, but this other post on the most insane E-Type racer ever is glorious:

To me, dirt rally F-type is just stupid. Not the right tool for the job. Reminds me of combine harvester demolition derby - it is only entertaining because of how stupid it is.

Panels shall never align again. You are not wrong. But stupid can be funny and fun.
