Counterpoint to commentators who say it doesn’t really look like a Countach: it’s probably the closest Lambo could get to a Countach while using an existing platform and complying with 21st century crash tests. Which is admittedly a bit of a buzzkill, but such is life in this obnoxiously-regulated business.

Yep. Needs huge-ass optional wing

Dumbass. You accuse me of having no context to make such a statement, then you dismiss said context.

Interesting...common theme here seems to be “durable lump I can get on the cheap and run for hundreds of thousands of miles”. There’s definitely merit to that but come on...this is a car enthusiast site! Where’s the fizz?

Yup. French intellectuals in the 50s/60s, then it migrated to US campuses in short order. Gender, sexual orientation, and now disability status and body fat ratio too. FFS. Now practically everyone has drank Karl’s kool-aid.

And you clearly enjoy jumping to conclusion’s about someone’s life while knowing nothing about them.

“Best” is in the eye of the beholder so....

Meh. I’ll take an S Class instead.

I’m no fan of our loophole-riddled tax code, but TBH purchasing a Singer seems a much better use of funds than many things Uncle Stoopid spends our tax dollars on....

“And if I become a billionaire I’ll kill myself”

Surely you can “get” the craftsmanship and engineering that go into something like this, even if you wouldn’t ever buy one? The engine was designed practically from scratch by an F1 team, for crying out loud - they got 120hp/L out of an N/A air cooled flat 6 (and just listen to the damn thing!). Each body panel was

$2m is chump change to the types of people buying this car. $2m on a batshit carbon fiber racecar-engined Singer vs $2m on a new Pagani vs $2m on philanthropy isn’t an “or” decision, it’s an “and”.

FWIW I’m a lifelong GOPer and would have no problem with Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, DJT, Mark Meadows, Stephen Miller, Mike Flynn, etc. permanently purged from the party. They have no business running a hot dog stand, much less holding office. Unfortunately the “us vs them” dynamic people keep bringing up in this

This. The idiocracy we call 21st century Western society blames people’s poor decisions on everything except the people who make them. We treat adults like children and then are shocked to find they act accordingly.

Millions of people across America firearms for safe, legal means - target shooting, hunting, fun, competition, and, yes, defensive purposes up to and including killing people (note: defensive shooting =/= murder). Nothing wrong with any of that. In fact, I’d argue the right to do the latter (plus act as a reset button

We looked at the horsehoe theory in a poli-sci class years ago. Actually quite interesting, at least if you compare the actions of ideologically extreme regimes.

Fact. DJT, Roy Moore, Matt Gaetz et al are are slimeballs, but it’s laughable watching Democrats pretend they’re somehow better...lest we forget Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, Anthony Weiner, Joe “sniff ‘em and rub the shoulders” Biden, Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd, Kamala “slept my way into politics with a married man”

Both sentiments are stupid. Criminal misuse of a product does not negate someone’s right to use it for legitimate means, nor does it obligate the manufacturer toward anything. Illegal street racing or ramming protestors with vehicles shouldn’t be blamed on a car or carmaker any more than a nutcase shooting up a movie

Healthy skepticism is typically a good thing...but some people (especially hardened criminals) do dumbass things.

Both are dumbass ideas.
