    But the car on the second panel is a Ginetta G58 (with a Chevy engine) for LMP3, not road legal … witch … ok, it does have two seats, so it checks out, carry on.

    The seats:

      Nice catch.

      That’s a straight up racecar, though. Like it’s built exclusively for entertainment and fun, not epeen.

      I’d respect someone driving a Ginetta G58 around (or, more practically, an Ariel Atom, a homogilation special or something) way more than a chonky, overpriced lambo. That screams “I don’t care what you think, I like to drive” instead of “hey everyone, look how rich I am!”

      Like this people driving around these monsters. That’s beyond flaunting wealth, that’s someone’s neurotic hobby, and most bystanders aren’t going to realize how special they are compared to the Porsche trailing them:

          It’s a horrifically fast 4wd RS200 in a cossie’s skin, heh.

          Same with the Peugot. You’d think it’s just a 205 until you get in, and see a worryingly loud engine behind the seat.

            Haha the RS200 is the only “Cossie” I’m actually familiar with, as we didn’t get the homologated version in the USA :(

            I did not recognize the Peugot though lol. Both sound like a load of fun to drive
