My point is, what's the point of pointing out you can buy this Ferrari for the price of a Mustang when the first time it needs a brake job you've got to sell your kids?

This just in, apples ≠ oranges

$15k is good for a Grand National.

Holy hell batman, how can you find that many cars that are as unreliable and expensive to fix as that?

7/10 of these cars are going to cost 10k in repairs over the next 45,000 miles.

You can haul ass AND all of your gear. Their commercials even featured pulling up to a Ferrari iirc:

I hate getting speeding tickets. That sinking feeling you get in your gut when you realize, crap, I'm boned, is just about the worst there is. And compared to some of us Jalops, I've had it easy. It also looks like I've had it easy compared to one particular Finn who got a $60,000 ticket. That's insane. But, on…

Please bring this to the US.

Good. If it doesn't hurt, it isn't a punishment.

Maybe he was in a hurry to Finnish his trip...

"Very good. Ill take him medium rare"
