    To some people, these things are no different than 99 cent Hot Wheels.

    Yup, and I'm guessing they don't worry about gas mileage.

    Who worries about gas mileage in an exotic car? If the price of fuel deters you from driving it, you shouldn't own one. This dealer is not all that impressive, certainly there are great deal of high end cars on the lot, but it is nothing compared to the cars sold through dealers like Symbolic, or Mark Ketcham.

    I love how one car invalidates the entire article...

    He leans towards me slightly and makes a promise: "Think of a car - any car in the world. I can get it for you. Price doesn't matter. You want it, I'll find it. Then you can buy it from me. And drive."

    Oh, yeah? ...P4/5!

    A great place to buy a low mileage car which has been beaten to death and never seen a service.

    Everyone has a number.

    I guarantee you Jim has one as well. It might be $50b but the number exists...

    So in essence the statement is true.

    Nor proper service intervals. Drive it until it breaks then buy another or just toss it out with the trash.

    It's not as having reached the point where I want for nothing why
    would I trade something I Love for something I don't care about?

    A member of the Royal Family already offered more than any car
    has ever traded for, for Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina and I said no. The possibility
    of someone offering 50B are zero.

    I spent two weeks in Dubai/Abu Dhabi dealing with www.PrincessCar.com. The middle east is amazing with their cars but it isn't what you think. A Lamborghini is not like a Honda here. I have seen more exotics in one day in Beverly Hills than in Dubai. There is money but only a small percentage of people it. I think it was only 17% of the population is native and the rest are immigrants to do work or businessmen from countries like the UK, Bangladesh or India. One of the last days we were there a guy came in and bought 11 cars in one shot from Princess Cars so there is a lot of money but it isn't what you envision.

    He's right, you will see more camels riding in the back of old pickup trucks than exotics.....unless you hang out at the airport.

    That's funny. We did see a lot of camels in trucks and free range camels. We flew to the middle east and asked the hotel desk where we could ride a camel at. She looked at us like we were crazy. We never did get to ride one.

    The Knicks wouldn't let Jeremy Lin go for a billion dollars, but 14 million in the third year proved to be too much...

    50+ million would make for a pretty sweet LeMans race team!
