I think it’ll be about $500-600k with whatever dealer fuckery happens. Don’t think it’ll crest 7 figures unless it’s some crazy dealer.

We are at $150k over for these things, and already have over 50 order demands with five figure deposits.
We take money for cars we know we’ll get over the next 3 years.
We have a 400+ person wait list.

For every person who's got it made in the shade, there's always some douchebag in line in front of them.
EcBROboost 'stangs blast V8 noises into the cabin when in Sport+ mode... it is pretty fun IMO. Top down, flooring it, hearing some turbo whoosh whoosh from the front and V8 roaring as you floor it through all 10 gears. I dunno, it beats silence.MexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Thu Aug 18, 2022 4:43 pmBut sounds pretty bad when they mimick the exhaust through speakers...
Go to 10:30 for the sound

I was just this morning to find out that these people we sort of know (went to a party at their house, friend of a friend thing) just don't work. They just have a $1.5 mill house in the nicest zip code in the state, private school life for CF, and somehow afford all of this without jobs, I guess rich parents. They're still too poor for this Porsche though.

I always think I'd work at least part time if I ever came into lotto money or something like that, but really who actually knows? If you can fuck around every day without work I'm sure it would be hard to actually commit to it. Do they at least throw a good shindig?D Griff wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:47 amDesertbreh wrote: ↑Thu Aug 18, 2022 11:59 pm For every person who's got it made in the shade, there's always some douchebag in line in front of them.

It was Allison's friend's 'engagement party'(isn't a wedding an engagement party? This is serious rich white person shit), these non working people held it at their house. It was indeed pretty dope, they had a hotog truck in the driveway prepaid, other foods, and a canoe full of ice and beer and shit, plus some pre mixed bourbon and tequila cocktails. All in all it wasn't really my social scene but would attend again.CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 9:26 amI always think I'd work at least part time if I ever came into lotto money or something like that, but really who actually knows?

Supercars have me all . Couldn't give any less of a shit. They're just status symbols for rich douchebags.

They don't HAVE to go to racecar drivers. Most of them probably don't give a shit and just want the most expensive thing they can get ahold of.Desertbreh wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 10:59 amRight. It's not like they are all going to Lewis Hamilton.
