Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 Coupé, 1969, by Pininfarina. A one-off designed by Paolo Martin based on a W109 series that was built for a wealthy Dutch customer and was displayed at the 1970 Paris Motor Show. Pininfarina "recycled" the design for the Rolls Royce Camarge. The Mercedes was sold recently for $1.2-million

luca marinelli character FIGHT: Quarter Finals

ARGUMENTS (spoilers below, and feel free to reblog with your own!):

Martin:

has worked as a miner and a sailor before

his introduction/inciting incident is getting into a fight with a guy and this happens a couple other times off the top of my head. so definitely able to fight someone else and win

Paolo:

“He is a soft, precious Cinnamon Roll. Yes, no one asked him to involve himself with Mia. He kind of butts in and she takes advantage. But, he's so kind. He does start to challenge her about her family, with predictable results. But, there are so many character beats and soft scenes where Luca fully communicates everything you need to know about Paolo without saying a word. I cry on that last line EVERY time.”

if he loses it will make one anonymous submitter sad

Bentley Camargue, 1985, by Pininfarina. Dating from a time when Bentley was a subsidiary of Rolls-Royce. For much of the time the two companies were tied together Bentleys were simply badge-engineered versions of Rolls-Royce models. The Camargue, designed by Paolo Martin at Pininfarina, was an exception, only being marketed as a Rolls-Royce. The factory built one Bentley-badged Camargue prototype in 1977 but the fate of that car is unknown. Then is 1985, near the end of the Camargue's model life, the factory made this one-off, it's serial number reveals the car was a Bentley from the moment it was built, rather than a "conversion." Decoding SCBYJ000XFCH10150 relays the following information: SC = Manufacturer Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Limited, Bentley Motors (1931) Limited B = Branding Bentley YJ = Model Camargue 00 = Engine Type 6.75 Litre V8, naturally aspirated, non-catalyst exhaust system 0 = Restraint Type other than USA prior to 1987 X = Checksum Digit F = Year 1985 C = Factory Location Crewe H = Steering Location Home market, Right hand drive 10150 = Chassis Serial Number

Whatever happened to Ice-Pick Joe's kid?

Like, did Sofia adopt Paolo in the end? We see her in the boat, and we know he hid in the boat (or one that looked REMARKABLY LIKE IT) after what Katya did, and at the end, when it's just Sofia, in the fading light of the harbour, it's either a trick of the lantern on the sheeting in the back, or it's movement. She had to have taken him right? Can we all just head-canon that after all they'd been through, Sofia adopted him? That somehow, there was something beyond the tragedy for at least two people?
