Ferrari 512M Testarossa
This neon-tinted 80s inspired pic of a Ferrari 512M Testarossa reminds me of the type of image you might purchase from defunct card and poster shop chain Athena. The Testarossa was an awesome sport car and for me one of the 1980s definitive examples of design that embodies the decade of excess and lavish spending - the Gordon Geko sentiment that “greed is good.” seems very appropriate. Well it was cool enough for Sunny Crockett to drive (set to his Jan Hammer written soundtrack) in still super cool (epic wave of nostalgia) in Michael Mann’s still epic cop series Miami Vice.
