Who did not cringe when the Ferrari went into the pool in Ferris Bueller's Day off? (product splashment of a sort)

Or the real life meeting a a Lambo Countach I was following from the 110 onto the west bound 10, On the ten as if on cue was a Testarossa in the #1 lane-
They saw each other and it was like a drag strip christmas tree going off- They were Gone. No idea who lost, but no one crashed at least to Santa Monica.

Actually Colnago might need a stiff capital infusion to kickstart the brand.
As to gravel bikes, they did make cyclocross bikes over the years. Smaller max tire size but they should be able to adapt.
When I passed through the LA metro area not long ago, I saw several nice cars like these mentioned. One was a relatively new BMW, that looked a lot like a Lamborghini in the next lane. I meant to look up that BMW, intriguing, to say the least. 🤔
