that's all fine and dandy, but to say they don't produce some of the best cars is ignorant.

No argument there, but I thought we were discussing driver's image.

Nice watch! Is that the newly released Seiko?

Red Lambo with a wing! Looks good. Take it to Underground Racing in Texas for a couple mods (couple meaning two... two meaning turbos)

Thank's, it's an 2013 Breitling Superocean M2000.

Like the idea of underground modding.

Lambos are rare because those that know better buy Ferraris.

Getting in and out of an i8 is worse than any super car I've sat in.

I like what I like.

This made me go look at his other shirts. The shirt you got was my favorite from what I saw. I like things with subtle details that aren't flashy, but when you notice them, they stand out and draw in your attention even more! (like that brass pin)

Seriously... I've been yesterday at Lamborghini's and they offered me an 2012 with 15k mile's for 102k cash.
36 month
Leasing without downpayment around 2.3 k a month.
So with an healthy downpayment you can lover it easy under 1.8k.

It's definately manageble, so why do some of us consider an 430 HP M4 over an 2012/2013 Lamborghini Gallardo?
MPG should be almost the same as from an M3 E92 , insurance not THAT much higher.
What's your thought's???

Nowhere in this post did you use an apostrophe correctly. Maybe that's why you think paying $2k a month to rent a used car is a good idea.

Actually, he said, "it's"

Thereby nulling your absolute of "nowhere" (but maybe he never took a graduate course where contractions were allowed! come on people pick one! APA OR MLA!!!!)

At the end of the day, one must always think about buying power when judging people.

Person A makes $100k/yr
Person B makes $500k/yr
Person C makes $1m/yr

Person A goes to a restaurant and buys a burger for $10.
Person B goes to a restaurant and buys a burger for $50.
Person C goes to a restaurant and buys a burger for $100.

Person A leases a car for $200 per month.
Person B leases a car for $1,000 per month.
Person C leases a car for $2,000 per month.

The tricky part is that often times Person B and Person C have a lot more disposable income to invest, thereby, using their money to make money and in turn create more income.

Person A has his hands tied a bit more in availability of investment income once he maxes out retirement funds, pays taxes, necessary bills, etc.


edit: @rennsport3.2 - nice to see someone else who rides a bike!

I'm the living proof how unfair life can be:
I'm dumb & rich

Repair costs are horrendous and frequent. Having seen multiple clutches go bad on a barely driven Gallardo belonging to a friend of mine was enough to scare me away for good.

[The Wind Breezes]

Why don't more people with reasonable car budgets drive Lambos? Because the cars are SUPER CONSPICUOUS and you'll draw tons of attention, which gets to be a hassle. Case closed.

Because for $60k i would rather get a cpo 2013 x5M and spend $3k on mods to make 700hp awd truck that can haul 5 peeps and a bunch o junk in the trunk

the lambo is not a very practical vehicle for daily use, my '08 FBO e90 335XI is more practical than a lambo. i don't have to worry about mileage, insurance, where i am going to park, and repairs are manageable in cost.

What are these "wealth profiles" for Ferrari and Lamborghini?

But you won't notice the problem unless you're smart and poor.

I am venturing to guess that this wouldn't be his daily driver and he'd had a different car to use for trips that he needs to carry items.

observation: Being poor and hanging out on BMW forums and Porsche forums is like living in the Matrix.
