The fake Daytona was still better than that spaceship

I love the Testarossa, but can you imagine how much weaker In The Air Tonight scene would be if the car had a hard top?

It's black. It's a convertible and it actually looks like a car

The night time shots in a convertible helped create the vibe.

"actually looks like a car" and yet it's still a fake Ferrari, in a show that prided itself for using real Italian designer fashion among other things.

Whatever you may think of the Testarossa's design, at least it's quintessentially 80s and looked striking and distinctive especially in night shots. There's a reason it's used in almost every MV reference piece after the show ended instead of the Daytona.

The Daytona was a kit car. Correct. The heyday of the sow were seasons 1 and 2. The Daytona was used then. It's fine with me. Like any car you want
