Not me. I think it's ugly.
But the wheels are a work of art. I'd like to buy a wheel and a tyre and just have it on a shelf somewhere.

I need to make sure to preorder a SMB starter set.
acket.
Just little ones...
75892 McLaren Senna
and
76896 Nissan Nismo GT-R
76897 Audi Quattro
Last two, especially the Nissan, fit in with a Gran Turismo theme.
Also, in the later two models, the minifig actually gets room for a passenger/co-driver!
You mean the Speed Champions set with a Lamborghini SUV?
Nah the big $600 AUD (choke) Technic Lamborghini Sian.
I want that Speed Champions set just for the Huracan Super Trofeo.
I bought the Jaguar set just to have the Formula E car, while the SUV sits unassembled in the box... I could sell that on Bricklink but I couldn't be bothered.
Same with my SW Microfighters escape pod and T-16, which I bought just so I could have a dewback and bantha on my shelf.
Maybe I have a problem!
I bought the Senna hoping to complete it in about an hour while my wife walked around a mostly boring mall in a different city. But I got only so far. Distinguishing different colours of grey and black with my aging eyesight did slow me down.
In contrast the single-seater City 60239 Police Car had been an easy build in the same circumstance another week.
Do you have the 76896 Nissan? I think it's better than the Audi. Even less of that Renault 2CV flat sides effect, and it has rear-view mirrors! And the front-end solution is quite brilliant.
Right now the Senna driver has abandoned his own car and is cruising around as the passenger in that Nissan. Oh yes. The Nissan windshield piece also seems to interfere less with the driver's outside hand than in the case of the Audi.

Does this go here or in the video games thread?
It's so hard to find good birthday cards and presents. And I began thinking a line of Lego greeting cards might have imagery and messages which would match my character.
Indeed, at the couple of places we visited yesterday, no cards jumped out as appropriate for my mother's birthday.
So eventually I purchased Lego set 60250 (bush/mail plane) and it turns out I even have a suitable-sized shipping box from an online purchase of my own.
So I intend to add some witty message about this plane coming to deliver birthday greetings, (but indicating that it needs construction) and send it from our 7-11 Post Office and it should end up getting there not too late.
If Mum can't build it herself, my brother should be able to. Or perhaps one of her great-grandchildren (modulo pandemic visiting restrictions). Or the closed box is even fairly displayable...
