It's not my turn, but I'm awake and happen to have a photo, name this one:

A recent midengine Ferrari.  Perhaps 488 or 458?

 

The mid engine part is correct.

 

Another view.

Not the 400 but you wouldn't be able to tell that from the angles I posted so I would say that is close enough.

I will be looking for something but.......the day before yesterday the 1TB rotating hard drive in my 2011 Mac Mini media library machine gave a pop-up imminent failure warning in its SMART status. I ordered a new 2TB Crucial SSD, which arrived this morning. I decided I was competent enough to fit it. Luckily it proved I was just about capable and had all the correct tools as well, without having to go out and buy them, which always slows things down a lot (Torx T6, T8 and hex 2mm plus various spudgers to remove ribbon cable plugs). I have now Carbon Copy Cloned the old 1TB drive across and the Mac Mini has re-fired up (wipes forehead in relief). I then copied all my iPhoto libraries from various sources onto the Mac Mini. I am now in the process of merging them all with iPhoto Library Manager. Hopefully this will be finished by tomorrow morning. I will then have to buy a 4TB rotating external HD to plug into my 2TB Time Capsule to act as the Time Machine back up for the Mac Mini. I think I know where to find a photo, that I don't think I have posted before, cross fingers tomorrow morning.

PS I thought the Evora I drove last year was a nice car, quick, with a brilliant ride and steering which is every bit as good as my hydraulically powered 911 steering. It is however sadly rather spoilt by a horrible gear change, which is vague, notchy and obstructive. On a circuit (Paul Ricard), it seemed a bit under-braked but probably would be just fine on the road. The auto-box version might be a much better car.

Here is your next one, found in a bunch of old photos taken in a Museum in 2002. I suspect I may have been a bit generous with the crop but there were not a whole lot of pixels from the Leica Digilux Zoom 4.3 I was using then (in reality only a 2.15MP sensor, double scanned). You also forget how noisy these early digitals were. Not long after this, I had a Contax ND for beta testing, which was the first full frame digital, using a Dalsa/Philips industrial sensor. It was pretty much unusable at anything over the base 50 ISO from noise. We beta testers told Contax this but they ignored us and put it on sale anyway. It got panned in reviews and was a total flop.
