    After taxes, with 5% interest you could bring (and taxes on the interest too) around $7m a year. There are 30,000 Fieros left, so to corner the market (@$3000 avg a piece) would take $90,000,000. If I spent $5m a year for the next 18 years, I could own all of them, and still have $2m a year to play with.

    I didn't take into account that they would start becoming more valuable the more I bought.

    1.) Porsche Carerra GT
    2.) Ferrari F12 Berlinetta for a DD
    3.) Porsche 918
    4.) C7 Z06 Corvette - not being a homer, its just an amazing car and would be a car to beat the crap out of if I had the money to not care that i were beating the crap out of it.
    5.) Porsche Cayenne Turbo - gotta have a baby-hauler
    2015 Corvette Z06
    - Shark Grey / Kalahari

    it was not easy for me to come up with 5 vehicles....maybe I should find a new hobby.


    1.) 14 VAGON - my DD
    2.) 15 Range Rover - wife DD
    3.) 15 F450 alum dump bed
    4.) Ferrari Testarossa
    5.) UGR Lambo


    Bulldozers, backhoes, and bobcat's kept trying to creep up on that list....


    The other problem is I don't see myself spending more than 25-30k on a vehicle...so I have no clue what newer or exotic stuff is even out there or what is even good.

    I don't, I'm just being an ass. I get pretty pissed at mine a good bit enough to sell it and get another mustang or vette. I don't know what I would do with 30k of them!

    I just was watching videos of the Pagani Zonda 760RS, so I'd order a 760DT

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
