And i thought i'm obsessed with cars. Of course i'm not where near his financial status but why the hell would you buy that car if you already have the better one (the enzo) and an f1 car and who knows how many more?
That's just too much grandomany imo. Wonder if he did any charity acts if he posseses all that lumps of cash. And i agree he is a little stupid thinking he could drive that superbeast on a icey or snow road and get away with it. I mean yeah, he almost got away but that's just asking for trouble imo.
AND NO I DON'T ENVY HIM.

If I had that much money, I may take it out on a track rather than waiting a few months for summer - even though it would not be nearly as much fun vs. clear weather.

The thing that perplexes me is the fact the guy drove 6 hours to get to a snow-laden track. That makes no sense to me.

If I would have had that kind of money I would have bought a set of wintertires to go under my supercar..
