Closed-cockpit endurance racing (LeMans, etc.) cars must have them per the rulebook.

makes sense.  but i'm guessing that the most any of these three will see is a trip
on a flatbed into someone's polished display room.

Call me a Socialist if you like but if you are spending 4 million for a car sight unseen maybe it is time for a 50% tax on all incomes that can afford to do that......

Oh and it is FUGLY!

What don't people get about no politics?

Do you have no self control?

Two things I don't do.  Keyboard bullies and hypocrites.

agreed.  lamborghinis have recently been very angular and sharp as opposed to organic
and flowing, but this one is beyond the pale.  and what's with that 'bat fin' running
down the engine cover?

i was thinking this was the next Batmobile!

I would have to make 18 trips in that thing to get my peeps and stuff transported from here to there.
Probably best to make my servants do all that driving for me. I just don't have the patience for that.
