Think what you like about the pics near the masthead; just scroll down.

This includes more written narrative than the guys who thought they
were making a video of a Lamborghini. The irony is that the owner of
the car has a business -- restoring mangled exotic cars.

Also learned something from a dealership near where I live that sells
those things: insuring them is next to impossible if you use them for
daily driving. Dealers get insurance for their stock/merchandise;
owners can insure them as collectibles, along with codicils specifying
how much driving and where. But, if you're willing to pay, you can
likely find someone somewhere willing to take on a risk . . . which
leads to an entirely different topic about assuming risks.
