You know after living in Fl for the past five years and seeing so damn many exotics on the road. "Clearwater and Tampa area" I would still have to say I'd build.
IMO exotics are an over compensation of a small penis.... lol...

Wanting excellent engineering is always a sign of a small penis apparently. I guess it boils down to whether you want a status symbol or not. I'd have to guess that most customers with enough money don't buy based on anything but image. So yes, maybe small penis. But then again, what can you say about blowing a ton of money trying to improve a Honda or Mustang???

Considering you can build something like a GT car for 200,000, it'd be really fucking tempting to build a car rather than buy some exotic. To say an exotic "talks" to you more than a race car is ridicilous.

Personally I like the whole kit car thing myself. Buy a Noble or an Ultima.

if you can swing an exotic, you can afford to fix up your shit-box too. i would get an exotic and tune that. best of both worlds.

definitely an exotic. i had my uncle preach to me for days and days about the 'spirit' of a real sports car a couple years ago (he was the president of Ferrari Owners Korea and the biggest car enthusiast i know). didn't really understand what the hell he was talking about. i mean, i knew the exotics were breathtakingly beautiful and sounded really nice, but that was about it. then he let me drive his hamann tuned 360 to really hammer home the lesson


he didn't even really consider his car to be an exotic though. his friend's enzo that we got to sit in, and his other friend's koenigsegg that he ordered... now those were exotic

my dream car ever since i wanted one has been a lambo.
starting with the countach when i saw smokey and the bandit for the first time... it changed to the diablo when its sleek and longer lines came out to replace the countach. the murcialago is definetly the car i would first go to pick up when i win the lotto. the new droptop version?? ooo weee!

but the closest ive come to having a lambo so far is the diablo headlights on my 300zx :lol:

Discuss.
First, to answer your question, yes, I would own one but not for the same reasons as you maybe.
No matter what car you ever get, you will never be happy. Maybe temporarily pacified, but never will anything materialistic make you truely happy and complete. That is just the surface of your immediate needs. That is why many of those rich dudes are selling and trading their exotics. There just not happy.
