June 19, 20241 yr "The needle on the analog dial tells you where you are". What an amazing concept! I wonder who thought of it? Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.
June 19, 20241 yr I like classic car styling. I like classic car dash display. No screens please! A a real key lockwd ignition switch instead of the burglars favorite: a smart key lock. Make the burglar use a locksmith key making tool for 15 minutes to get in. That ought to discourage him into looking for an easier mark. Another peeve is smart garage door opener (also a burglar favorite to hack). 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.

Noel 😁 Yep, Pagani cars are a work of art, and art requires fancy dials, not a digital representation on a display. Even the engine and suspension components you can't see are beautifully designed with aesthetics in mind, not just functionality. Pagani have gone somewhat old school with this car, despite the complex electronics, with the manual transmission option. Although when spending that much I think I'd want a sophisticated automatic transmission and flappy paddles. 😄 Edited June 20, 20241 yr by martin-w

Hahaha, no: since Pagani is Italian (and the founder/head designer, Horacio Pagani, is from Argentina), it should be Utopia. Somehow, I never liked his designs, but I confess I've never seen one except in photos and videos.
