That's true, idiots do entertain us.

On a side note, I knew you were taking notes and watching debates on 4 doors vs 2 doors. 🤣🤣

I've never considered myself to be an unreasonable individual...now an idiot...that's a whole separate matter...

It was about 1999 or 2000 before the crash. I was in a Ferrari dealer showroom north of CHI, Lake Forrest I think, they had a used Daytona GTB4, $120k. I always thought it was the most beautiful Ferrari ever built, it is like a wild offshoot from the typical Ferrari.

Life was good then, and I gave it some thought, but that kind of money for a car was pretty foolish. Little did I know the market would soon crash and it would have been the best investment in my portfolio…

A little salt on the wound, sorry had to.

Money rules the world, Unfortunately stellantis gave up on srt.

there's a reason why porsche is keeping their ice engine and adding hybrid tech, new lamborghini aventador replacement still has a v12 w/hybrid powertrain, ferrari still building ice engines, 2025 bmw m5 will still carry the 4.4 v8 w/hybrid engine, etc etc

Hybrid engines are on the hit list, too, they're next.

I'm sure that debate was going on long before I joined in, but I do like to add fuel to the fire.

And some take it well. You and DavidKFla, for example. Some others, maybe not so much, but that's okay. I'm not here to win any popularity contests.

You hear that @DavidKFla he thinks we aren't serious about taxis being better than 2 doors 🤣🤣🤣.

Hold out as long as they can, at least they didn't get pushed over like what stellantis did to SRT

If there's no more in the shaker, may I offer up that my girlfriend's boss' one burned up in a fire in California?

Oh boy, did he get agreed upon value?

 

[Jimmy N.]

As I recall, like most of his cars, it wasn't even insured. Two of them were the only ones left in the world.

And compared to everything else lost (the entire ranch, basically) the cars were not at the top of his list to worry about.
He since left SoCal for Texas. We tried to get him to move earlier, but...

Not insuring those cars probably cost him a few mil, I'm assuming his collection was very nice if he had a 365 gtb

 

[Jimmy N.]

Oh, it cost him a few mil alright.

As an aside, today I heard my girlfriend mention to someone on the phone that the Aston Martin she sold him came with a lifetime Sirius subscription. Obviously peanuts in the scheme of things, but still ironic.

Well, at least that was must've been insured since he used it.

Yikes....I'd be on the golden gate bridge with a cinder block around my neck...that's a MONSTER hit...

What hit him the hardest initially was all the animals that didn't make it, including quite a few exotics.

Then, I'm sure, that most everything he'd worked for all his life (except for companies in other locations) was just gone.
Buildings, orchards, vineyard, cars, all of it.

And that many of his employees now had no work probably didn't feel good, either. Especially the ones who had their homes on the ranch.

I feel so fortunate that we had already moved, so I didn't have to see the aftermath. Including the foundation (pretty much all that remained) of my old house.

What was it...a fire ?

California wild fires

Yeah for sure, cars, property, etc etc are all replaceable.

Animals a little different but cattle is definitely replaceable, still sucks to lose a living being even if it's an animal.

The loss of jobs and human life hits the hardest and stings the longest. Those areas get completely decimated and become damn near uninhabitable because of the destruction and pension for flare ups.

California is the best state to live in when it comes to beauty, weather and lifestyle but it comes with a lot of unsavory things as time goes on such as politicians, ridiculous cost of living, out of control property values, wildfires, mudslides, earthquakes, etc etc.

Once you leave cali you never look back, parents moved to the east coast in the early 2000s and they go down as saying that it was the best decision of their life.
