Damn, this just reminds me of riding in my uncle’s bmw in Miami as a kid. It was the 90s, not the 70s, but still. Pretty similar aesthetic.
yeah! I was convinced I was going to get a Beamer when I grow up, but modern ones look like boring dystopia hearses chauffeuring you to the crematorium.
Not to mention, when you grow up you learn that seemingly everyone that drives a bmw would step over your corpse to change lanes without thinking (or signalling…)
Turn signals are a $1500 option with a vanishingly low take rate and a high maintenance cost (gotta use a proprietary pure synthetic blinker fluid) and monthly maintenance schedule
The M2 looks pretty badass, especially with the fun colors, but it's $74,000.
Reminds me a little of Kitt.
I had an 85, man I miss that car sometimes.
Where's the turn signal?
A place to share and discuss Cassette Futurism: media where the technology closely matches the computers and technology of the 70s and 80s.
Whether it's bright colors and geometric shapes, the tendency towards stark plainness, or the the lack of powerful computers and cell phones, Cassette Futurism includes: Cassettes, ROM chips, CRT displays, computers reminiscent of microcomputers like the Commodore 64, freestanding hi-fi systems, small LCD displays, and other analog technologies.
