    Money and good taste

    I have long subscribed to the belief that,..."Just because you have money, doesn't mean you have good taste".....I'm just sayin'.

    If the red and black were reversed it would be good. But they are not, so FAIL!

    At least it appears to be a wrap.

    Infinite 2nd chances there.

    Dorothy Parker once famously quipped "If you would like to know how God feels about money, just look who he gave it to".

    Salzburg and Martini tribute "foils" are factory options on the 918 Spyder Weissach Edition.

    My personal views about these treatments mirror Mrs. Parker's famous quip... However our friends from the "emerging markets" had to miss out on Porsche Salzburg and Martini Racing when they were actually competing, so who can blame them for wanting to live the dream...

    ...in fairness to the cobra replica guys...this photo is from Supercar Sunday in woodland hills, and the featured marque was Shelby/Cobra....
