Another flashback to the 90s - the Ref. 8030, aka the President
The more one looks, the more it is possible to find pieces from the 1990s that do dot affect our modern design sensibilities Another GP piece I like is the Ref. 8030, produced in collaboration with Ferrari, especially the ones without the prancing horse o...

Right you are :)
If all of us had exactly the same taste, our hobby would be quite boring
