……..I’ve ever sat in a luxury car except once in a limo. The owner - my client - even let me drive it out of her driveway. I was so excited, but realized that I will never have enough cash laying around to buy such a thing.
The starting price for this Trofeo model is $160K.

    Man, I hope you triple checked your back pockets for screw drivers before you sat in it.

    That’s the steering wheel. I’ve always loved their logo. Wine labels do it for me, too.

    Ok... and then what's that in front of the steering wheel that looks like a TV screen? 🍿

    I like to rent various vehicles when we go on vacation, just to have something different than the 4x4 pickups I've been driving my whole life. This past Christmas we went to Daytona and rented a Levante as well as a Ferrari F8. Last year a Lambo Huracan in Tampa. I've got a Fiat 500 rented for my trip to Tehachapi, CA in a couple weeks, and had a Nissan Versa that somebody cut into a convertible in Cozumel in March haha. My wife is convinced I've lost my marbles when she sees whatever ludacris contraption I rented this time.

    @reggi, I think that's the car's digital dashboard.

    Not much blocking the windshield, even in that low car. It's where the speedometer would be in a proper car. It is probably stalled on a boot-screen, trying to find enough marbles to run the engine. The car is so in love with itself that it displays a self-portrait; but at 110 years old, not willing to show fine detail, so just a silhouette.

    That is what we can see in the mirror polished wheel hub under the logo

    @reggi Yes, I can see why you would say that it's blocking the windshield, but I think it's the angle. My camera was at chest height - sitting down - when I took the picture.
