Damn, this just reminds me of riding in my uncle’s bmw in Miami as a kid. It was the 90s, not the 70s, but still. Pretty similar aesthetic.

yeah! I was convinced I was going to get a Beamer when I grow up, but modern ones look like boring dystopia hearses chauffeuring you to the crematorium.

The M2 looks pretty badass, especially with the fun colors, but it's $74,000.

Not to mention, when you grow up you learn that seemingly everyone that drives a bmw would step over your corpse to change lanes without thinking (or signalling…)

Turn signals are a $1500 option with a vanishingly low take rate and a high maintenance cost (gotta use a proprietary pure synthetic blinker fluid) and monthly maintenance schedule

Reminds me a little of Kitt.
