Apparently @77Tony has the only 3/4 scale 928? It's comical next to the Tesla.

Tesla S, 928 S4, Audi?

The E-type has some historical similarities to the 928. When introduced in 1961 ( back when styling took serious precedence in the design process) the e-type was a sleek, futuristic, and controversial shape designed for performance touring. It was like nothing else around, and looked like a spaceship had landed on the streets. Sound Familiar? I still think it is one of the best looking sports cars ever built.

after watching that video,
I would say the drivers position could be closely assimilated to sitting in a Spitfire.
Note the long hood with the louvers and the engine note and all of the switches neatly arranged on the panel,
With the engine howling Its pure sex aviation on the road

I remember that picture! How about the one with it in the carport? That was Jensen Beach?
