Missing the fairing lower. Probably made out of carbon fiber hand-spun by little old ladies in Bologna, weighs less than a silk hanky, and costs as much as every motorcycle I own, plus the garage.

I watched a summer-replacement tv show (remember them?) a long time ago where the plot centred on three guys rescuing a Ducati from a rich dude who bought it as a piece of art to display in his living room.

Suicide machine.
 

I paid for a couple years of school by picking them up from the insurance company with plastic damage, fixing/painting them, riding for a bit then selling.  even 30 years ago it was amazing how much better the machines were than the average rider (me). I stopped when too many people started being on cell phones.   Still, they are a lot of fun, as most dangerous toys are.  This one is especially pretty too. I'd still smash bugs on the front of it.

I really like Mazda's new-ish design language. I would like to see a Mazda 3-sized Sport Coupe: two doors, four seats (barely), fastback. Like a larger version of a Miata. For that matter, a non-convertible, fastback Miata would sell like crazy.

That caught my eye - I just had the pleasure of driving one In the Santa Cruz mountains :-).  A friend got a ‘74 1600-2 and is fixing it up better than new: 2 liter motor with 4 carbs, improved suspension, etc.  Sooo fun to drive, now I know what all the fuss is about!

1967 Lotus Europa midship engine.  Got a ride in one hitchhiking back when they were brand new.  Had to crawl in and out on my hands and knees.  To use the vernacular of the day ... totally bitchin !!

That was the model of car Diana Dors owned, before she was old enough to drive it apparently.  I posted a picture of it somewhere a while back.
