Not even with DeMuro's wallet. CP.

It's crazy, but I'm not. CP. I just feel that you can save $40K by going out and getting a 2015 M3 that has a hell of a lot less weight up front and handles better. Hell, you can save 10K by going out and getting a 2015 M5. Sure you lose the "one of a kind" status...but taking 2 cars and mashing them together does…

$105k is nuts even knowing the amount of work this took to make look stock and work.

In mother Russia, even the siren is drunk.

Worst siren ever.

No, he's exactly right. I have enough money to own it, but not enough money to own it. I can afford to fix it when it breaks, pay the insurance, cover the fuel, do the major services, etc. But I can't afford to drive it around without worrying about a random $5k repair or a $10k accident — and that is real wealth.…

Absolutely. I deduct everything from the sales tax to the tires to the depreciation.

Initially I thought this would be shady but over time I've come to realize this car really is a business expense just like a work van or something. 90% of the time I drive it, I'm filming with it or doing something to write about…

The problem is, you are 'too poor' to own one, even this 10 year old cheapo. One has to have a big house and a nice office (for your point A to B rides), tons of free time and most importantly, tons of fxxking cash. If maintenance is a scary big check.... it is best to leave these cars to the retirees with nothing…

Doug these are some of the best articles I've ever read. I think every enthusiast who can't afford such a magnificent car dream of what it would be like. You answered all of our questions and were damn entertaining in the process. Thank you

No, I don't think so. In order to make these columns work, I have to buy stuff that people want to read about. So while i personally cringe every time someone walks up to me and asks me "how can you afford that Lamborghini?", I think it's for the best for my career and for Jalopnik that the next car is just as…

Reading articles about Doug's Ferrari for a year provided me and I'm certain many other readers many honest revelations within the stories he's shared. Thank you Doug.

When I had Porsches before, I didn't have any of these problems. I had no problem parking a Porsche on the street, or outside overnight; I had no problem leaving it in a normal parking spot. It could clear anything in the front and it could carry 4 people. It was also more reliable, and when it broke, it was cheaper…

Thanks for doing this Doug. As much as we don't want to hear of your disappointment, you did so in an entertaining and honest way over the past year. For that, we are all grateful, even if most won't admit it.

You might not like him but I don't think this list is for someone who genuinely seems to car about cars and goes out of his way to drive around pieces of history.

But at least he appreciates his vehicles.

Beat me to it. We must have the same friend....

Apparently these people find out about it through either word of mouth or Craigslist. You can make some decent money doing it — but once you appear on a broker/export list, you're usually banned from buying the company's cars ever again.

As a resident of Virginia, can this please call attention to the fact that a reckless driving charge (80mph+ or in excess of 20mph over the posted speed limit) is a Class 1 Misdemeanor and on the same level as charges like animal cruelty, sexual misconduct, and brandishing a firearm? These laws need to be changed. I'd…

You still expect said oil to comply with the SAE standards printed on the fucking label. If it does not, someone has just committed fraud and should go to jail. Or are you one of those anarchists who think all laws are slavery?
