Let's skip a Porsche for a bit and admire this beauty. Not many know Jaguar made a banger called, XJ220 in the early 90s. You just don't see this very often. It was one of the cars stolen in Gone in 60 Seconds (Nick Cage version) nicknamed, Bernadine. image

It's my business to help Bitcoiners not spend their money on overpriced materialistic junk, the fiat mentality has been implemented in their heads to buy disgusting overpriced junk

Saw one of those in person at the Lemay car museum in Tacoma. What an amazing piece of machinery.

It's a shame when they turn into museum pieces. I hope there are more out there being driven around and enjoyed than there are museum pieces.

Well, the story about Lemay is kind of interesting. He was the city garbage collector for Tacoma for many years and his estate Marymount has an enormous collection. Since he was Tacoma‘s first garbage collector, he made an enormous amount of money in a very short period of time and he used that to fuel his passion for buying and restoring rare cars. He also owns one of the few 1948 tuckers ever made. or rather his estate does since he passed away a number of years ago.
