I'll take a hotwheels version of the car, and the rest in cash.

Who spends $50 million on a car?




>Who spends $50 million on a car?

Someone who has so much money that $50M feels the same to them as the price of the hotwheels feels to you. (Also, people without that much money who are impulsive).


I don't think there are $50 million cars even one of the GT40's and Ferraris that raced at Lemmans a lot less than that.


Yea, the car displayed (250 GTO) sold for $48 million at auction in 2018


Ah I sit corrected - I seem to recall one of the Lemans Ferraris was $16 Mil


Having that kind of money is like `iddqd` for life: fun for five minutes, then the game gets boring.


Instead of getting a $50M car, I would hire a small team of scientists to optimize the middle-class purchasing decisions I already make.


Someone who's confident he can resell it in a few years for $70 million or more.


Someone who knows that car will never be worth less than 51 million again.
