Is this the vid where he goes on and on about how this is the last NA engine ever to be produced and also the last manual and the last sports car and it’s all solemn and sad and overly-dramatic? Ignoring that some of the best sports cars were to come later - the T.50, the Valkyrie, all manner of McLarens, some very nice Astons, Paganis, Koenigseggs, Ferraris like the 458 Speciale, etc etc.
Even in 2009, I remember this feeling a bit over the top.

You can’t ignore what hasn’t yet happened. ;)
But yes, dramatic. Because television show and ratings.

How many V12 NA manual transmission cars did come after it? T50 which is not even out and costs a few million?

When ever I read a title like that, I think o f Moron-de-la-frontera, Spain, a nd the American AFB, ‘Moron Air Base’.
I mean, come on. Why would you build a base near a place name like that?
You wouldn’t build a base near Condom, France, or Twatt, Scotland, etc...

Hmm. Not many. A bunch of Zonda one-offs I’m sure. There must be more but it’s a pretty niche market!
