Reminds me of the Turismo from GTA4:

Looks like a McLaren version of a Murcielago. Front end is ugly. Sad, since McLaren should be able to hire any stylist in the world to do a better job on the body. A supercar should look much more aggressive. This one looks soft. I won't be buying one.

Yes, but will you not buy one because it is ugly, or is the another reason, User00013170? You don't need to be specific.

Well, of course its due to the obvious reason of not wanting to mortgage the rest of my life on it I phrased it the way i did for the humor factor.

Yes, but who will be impressed when you tell them how fast your house is?

My house is pretty fast, especially during a hurricane.

I bet living in my house is a lot more comfortable than living in that car.
For what that car costs, I could buy a new car, every year, for the next ten years and longer, if I trade in the previous year car. These cars wouldn't be as fast, but they would be plenty fast and would have all the same amemities or more than that car has.
That car is basically for someone with money to burn. Most of us don't fit that bill.

I'm sure the $288,000 price tag had nothing to do with your decision.

I am a well-known recording artist about to go on a world tour, and jealousy/envy doesn't look good on you.

I felt this was necessary due to the argument over a car or a house.

There's also a boat in the picture with the Green Viper. That guy could have certainly bought a nicer double wide mobile home and still have change to buy a car and cheap boat, for what he spent on the Viper. I bet he lives from paycheck to paycheck because of that car. He won't ever be able to retire at that pace. I guess some people don't know what fiscal responsibility is.
