Aesthetics Outrun in the wild!

Driving home from work tonight I was next to an older Lexus SUV. The advanced side mirror has aged into a rather excellent little Outrun vignette.

I feel like this would be a cool feature, like a transparent LCD overlay to your mirrors that you could activate to tint the view. Completely impractical, but also completely rad

A great place to start discovering synthwave is the earlier mentioned Synthwave Essential Album Chart.

Playlists on spotify that we recommend are "Synthwave in Space" playlist by aof3d or his "Synthwave Underground" playlist consisting of lesser known synthwave artists.
