Seems so effortless. I do wonder how quickly it can go from a dead stop to top speed though. I bet that would be exciting to watch.

Oh yeah...

I agree Steve.
I’m not really interested in an EV as I think most of them are well ugly or just not my style. It’s to bad they didn’t push the Hybrid as I may have considered one for my daily.

I'm not sure we'll see an end. I just think it will keep transitioning. I see sport trucks coming back pretty big to a large extent. Radwood seems to be gaining in popularity with period correct builds, too.
Regarding raising the bar. I ran into Bob Johnson a few years back now. He brought out a super clean and heavily detailed 55 Chevy to Caffeine & Octane that was of course gorgeous. The freaking engine was entirely smoothed out for crying out loud. I asked him about G-Force Cuda and Battle Axe and how they compare to today. He said those two cars don't hold a candle to what's being built now. It really is insane the level of craftsmanship that is going on.
I can see electric power helping to draw attention to new areas previously not possible when dealing with an internal combustion engine. I think the sound and amazement of getting a mechanical wonder to work will be lost on many. Think about how many people are more impressed with the latest iPhone compared to any real, wind up watch/clock. No doubt the iPhone is impressive, but the watch blows my mind and keeps me enthralled more.

This Testarossa was modified by Slammered, a shop in Southern FL. When I still lived there, I saw a similar treatment they did on a BMW i8 (which were still fairly new back then).
Rotiform wheels with spinner Ferrari badge center caps, airbags, new panel in the frunk to mount existing audio equipment, color-matched rockers and lower valence (they were black). I love Testarossas; hopefully posting this won't get me kicked off of Lat-G. 😆
