If that's the driver in the picture, I just can't help but feel sorry for the guy. His whole life he's been told having a fancy car means he's made it in life, but nobody ever taught him how to not look like a slob. Some financing department somewhere is raking in their 20% on the loan, and the insurance company is happy to provide the absolute minimum coverage required by law.
My money is on it being a rental
Driver - yes.
Owner - who knows...
If you feel the need to show off your penis size and how much money you got with a car I honestly will laugh when you wreck it.
Seriously, I loathe these assholes in Yale town who need to BRROOAAAAAPPPP accelerate to 100km/h for 2 seconds to then having to slam the breaks for the next stop light. If tomorrow they're all crashed and a total loss, I'd be so happy.
Sorry, zero tears for show offs.
It is possible to own an expensive sports car and not be a giant prick who is a hazard to others in traffic. But the people who buy an expensive sports car purely for the pleasure of driving are much more likely to take it to a track than be dumb on the street, because there aren’t a lot of streets where you can really experience the car to its full potential.
A really expensive car can make you feel like an amazing driver, but can also very suddenly reveal if you’re actually skilled enough to drive it. A lot more people have the money for these cars than the money and skills for these cars.
When I used to race, myself and a few other guys used to embarrass exotics at the track because my Civic cost less than their last major service and I wasnt afraid (financially) of putting it into the wall.
Possible but not probable.
