Thanks for your post @Go-For-Chill that all makes sense.

PS I'd take a Ferrari over the Porsche

It would have to be at least 20 years old, or it wouldn't be a real car.....

[Bridger]

Is 62 years enough...

[Giles]

Yeah, that'll do

And no air-con or cup holders!!

So one of those, or about 100 911 2.7 RS?

@NickD I think there are options to be had. This Spanish villa is only $41M, so that leaves $10M to buy a daily driver and the staff to drive you around.

I actually enjoyed Tron: Ares, didn’t hate Jared Leto. I will admit I think the sound track helped take it to a barely passing score.
You just have to put it into perspective with other movies. I like to use a scale from Battlefield Earth to The Godfather.

Agreed. I was certain Jared Leto would ruin it but he was ok. At first I thought the score was a bit intense but then I realized it was meant for imax. I bet that was something.

I have a soft spot for Nine Inch Nails so I didn’t mind the intense techno during the oranges lol.
I look forward to the next one in 2041.

Dinosaurs didn't have feathers, get the fuck outta here.

@Bridger what the hell is that?

[Bridger]

@WhiskeySandwich it is an ad for a car rental place in Sydney. The shop was located near the red light district, Kings Cross, and had a lot of brothels in the area. They wanted to say that they just did car rentals, without extras.

It's classy Aussie culture at it's best.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Bridger LMAO, thats even funnier! Trying to figure out why the car rental agent is nude and turning down "bird stuff". That's good advertising right there, they know their target audience.

[Bridger]

While the company still exists and is called No Birds, sadly they no longer advertise in such ways due to political correctness.

However, all this makes me wonder about the Ford Escort and whether that was a model for hire.

[Rustygate37]

@Bridger yep started in my home town WA. They still have the “no birds” stickers on their cars but they don’t do the ads any more.

[Bridger]

@Rustygate37 that may or may not have been a win for girls out west
